Unsuspecting Mom enters room with peach in hand. H goes ape, attacks Mom, pilfers peach, and retires to a corner to devour it.

Happy Family!





Our house truly feels like home now. We are having an awesome time just being a family again!


We went shopping and Chris took Hazel to the Disney store.


She had a difficult time picking out a favorite toy . . .


But finally fell in love with . . .

. . . SULLY! Of course he's the ugliest and LARGEST stuffed animal she could have picked! And of course we must bring him everywhere now! She is so silly!


PS. Just in case you aren't getting enough pictures of the adorable Hbot, I added a new RSS feed for our new web gallery up in the right corner.

liar, liar pants on fire

okay, I lied. I promised that I wouldn't neglect the blog again, and I failed. But I finally located and assembled the camera, cord, and the computer! It doesn't sound like a great feat, but after the move we've had, I'm adding it to the list of accomplishments. So here's what's been going on:

we bought a 3 bedroom condo and closed on the 25th of June, woohoo! Then the fun started and we've been working our butts off to get everything moved and the other house completely clean by the 30th (at the time this sounded like it would be too easy, yeah right)! Thanks to some help from awesome friends and especially my sister Brooke, we did it! Here's some of the footage of the move . . .

first bath in the new house


complete chaos


Despite our hectic move, we still managed to have a little fun:


Crazy hair (just like her father)


Breaded Beach Baby


Anniversary dinner with Uncle PP and Auntie GG


Happy Fourth! (no, that fire is not coming from her bum)

Daddy got promoted! (Hazel tries garlic at our celebration dinner)

In the midst of ALL of this, Hazel had double ear infections, switched daycare centers twice, AND I switched jobs!

Oh yeah, did I mention that Chris is coming home in less than TWO weeks?!?! I am soooo excited, but I REALLY want the house to look FABULOUS! Thanks to Brooke (again!) we've painted the kitchen, bathroom, and the foyer area. Here's a snapshot:
