Argh, Matey!
If only you could really see how blinded she is by the eye patch...
And without the eyepatch.
Playing with the neighbors' puppies. Oh, how she loves the puppies.
And the joyous running away.
Oh, and my team dominated, once again, the City Chase. We are the May-Walsh of Salt Lake County Corporate Games City Chase. And by that I mean, we haven't lost a gain in four years. Because we are awesome like that.

Hazel and I did a little bakin' on Sunday. We made breadsticks and pizza bread. Which was really just dough rolled out with cheese (string cheese that had been strung) and then some tomatoes. It was delicious. We are excellent bakers. And were very impatient for the dough to rise. But look how beautiful our breadsticks turned out.
We are going to a wedding next week. Well, the wedding isn't until August 31, but we fly out August 24. Thus, no updating for a week. Ha! Like I really update that often for anyone to notice. Anywho. I need something to wear to the wedding. Let's just say that I am not the ummm..fanciest gal ever. I wear a lot of khaki pants. And polo shirts. Fine for a boy to wear to a beach wedding, not for me. So, I need something to wear. Which brings me to my point, Hazel was trying on dresses too. And she looks adorable. And almost shows as much cleavage as I do.
And that is all I've got. For now.

Monthly Update? What's that?!?!
I = suck. If only I could be a little more incompetent, people might not expect me to do so much. Of course, you would think from all the grief I get, that I am, in fact, completely incompetent. Or, maybe I would just think that.
Hazel made another trip to visit Baby Alex and co. in Texas. The weather was great and they watched Mickey Mouse and went to the zoo. Maybe other stuff, I don't know. I went to Portland and it was fabulous. I didn't watch Mickey Mouse or go to the zoo.
Hazel also made a "snow penguin". I don't know what made it a penguin. Or why the penguin wore a hat.
Playing in the box with daddy.
Sometimes we make her clean. She had to put on an apron to clean. Her choice, I am fine in her cleaning in whatever. By the time she gets really good at cleaning, she probably won't want to do it anymore.
Hazel likes to play on the computer. Mostly this involves banging on the keyboard and moving the mouse. And YouTube. She loves watching videos. Especially the Fairy Alphabet, from an old Sesame Street. And the Alligator King, and Ladybug Picnic, and so on and so forth.
The Internet. It is hypnotizing.
Notice that Hazel is now in a different outfit. They watch YouTube A LOT.
Cute baby in a hat. I love her in hats.
Hazel likes dogs a lot. Real or stuffed. She fashioned a leash out of her monkey backpack tail to use for her stuffed dog.
Most of all, Hazel loves her Nacho dog. Nacho is Hazel's dog. Triscuit is mommy's dog. Daddy doesn't get a dog. "sorry dad"
Anyway, we haven't uploaded pictures since January 28 and haven't taken a picture since February 10. Yeah, that was like a long time ago.
So, here is a quick catch-up. With a bunch of pictures.
Hazel's verbal skills are improving every day. She talks more frequently and more clearly. It is great. Two is a fun age. I like the crazy talking and the "my turn!" and whatnot. Plus, Hazel is old enough to do stuff but still young enough to be restrained in a stroller. It is a bit tiring for the mama, but maybe that is just because I try and get in at least two hours of studying every night. Oh, and I have a job. And a two-year-old. And a Geoff...

She is also getting better at doing stuff. Like puzzles and reading books. And recognizing letters everywhere. She has also been very into coloring and playing with her doll house. And probably other stuff that I would think of if I wasn't exhausted.

Making a snow angel. This was a massive snowstorm on....January.....28th? I just know that I got let out of work early, it took forever to get home and Geoff was laid up on the comp so I had to shovel everything. It has been a bad winter for snow and shoveling.

And that is the past month or so. Oh, and then our fridge died today. Or probably last night because the food was starting to thaw. But, I called a local appliance store (Famous Appliance) and they were able to deliver us a new fridge within an hour. Woo!!
