Nine month Post

Hazel is so fun! We love her more than anything and can't believe how amazing she is. She hasn't slowed down at all, in fact, she is busier than ever. She loves books here lately, loves to play by herself, dance, mimic everything I do and watch cartoons. She is such a joy and just makes me smile all day long. I really don't feel like I have a baby at home anymore. She's a girl. She knows what I'm doing, what I'm talking about and she most certainly knows what she wants to do! She has learned so many new things this month. She knows how to clap (she holds her left hand still and swings her right hand to hit the left), she can mimic a sneeze, a growl, a scream, Dada, Mama, Baba, excited breathing (really fast), she can say Dora...she's a smart fart! She climbs the stairs faster than me, she dances better than me and she out energizes me everyday!!!!!! Gosh, I love her!

Here are a few pictures of her this month....She is getting SO big!!!!!!!!!!She was planning her escape...And, she's off. She was in and out of the chair 4 times in about 60 seconds or less! These pictures are getting very tough. She can climb in and out of her chair now, but she did topple out twice during the pictures. Oops! Next time we'll ask Dad to help us!

We had such a busy weekend! I had been helping a lot with my cousin's wedding. Here are a few pictures from the reception. Thanks to Emily, TJ, Kyle, Erika, Ryan, Mandy and my family for all your help!!!!!
Hazel and the best Scrappy Pappy ever!
Bro, Sis and the kids!
I love this picture of Kyle and Hazel.

Just me and my girl.

My beautiful family. Darryl is just so handsome and darn, he makes cute babies!

Aunt Erika (aka Kelly) and her girl. Emily, Kyle and Locke....one of my all time favorite families !

See, I can clap!

Drama Queen

Hazel is always on the go!

And, in the mix.

And, she gets air!

What mom, I'm not doing anything! I'm just really thirsty! Darryl has got her in a bad habit of drinking Diet Coke! She wants it every time she sees a can. He always lets her lick the DC that is left on the top of the can and she gets so tickled.

Gotta love that face! Just perfect and oh so rotten.

What is going on with this hair? Straight on top and crazy in back. This will make a seriously hilarious mullet!
