december. so busy. we kicked it off this year with a park playdate on a beautiful day. hazel is currently in full wrecker mode. she prowls around the house, looking for opportunities. her favorite go-to’s is the book shelf. she is fast. and stealthy. went up to check on kids the other night before bedtime.

lewisville christmas parade.

yesterday was the lewisville christmas parade. we didn’t get to go last year because of hazel and the business of her being born and all newborn and such. but we’ve gone in most of the years past. this year. isaac was in it, with his boy scout pack. so fun. the weather was glorious and […]
hazel’s birthday party. (parties).

and now. a gratuitous amount of hazel eating cake pictures. first up. her actual birth day. we just had a little family only cupcake party. hazel. not a fan. (truth be told, she was crying because we told her not to touch the flame). she recovered nicely, and dug into the delicious frosting. she took […]
hazel is ONE!

a year ago, at this time, i had just finished up this exciting adventure. now. here we are a year later. and sweet hazel is one. no longer a baby. a toddler. she’s so different from the other two. she talks a lot more. she can say mom, dad, isaac, anna, peekaboo, uh oh, giddyup, […]
mountain getaway.

last weekend, we made a semi-spontaneous trip to the mountains for a little family getaway. we started it out by turning hazel’s seat around. she’s a few days shy of one, but not if you count from her due date. actually, i think the law might be two years old now. which is ridiculous. anyhooo… […]

halloween twentyfourteen.

our first halloween with three kiddos. well, three kiddos in the outside world. last year, i got to drag my fat, pregnant butt around the neighborhood. this year, i was just fat. ha. anyhooooo… we had dinner at five. got dressed and ready. and then acted like crazy people until it was socially acceptable to […]
lazy five ranch.

a few days (weeks) ago, our friend stephanie invited us to go to lazy 5 ranch with her family. they had won some tickets and couldn’t use them all and anna and kaylin are super good friends and we’ve never been, so we gladly took them up on their offer. poor isaac missed out, because […]
