Easter!!

An update! 

First let me say, I totally slack in the monthly Hazy updates.

I have missed 10 months and 11 months. 

Ah well, here is some Hazy Joy news:

(most of this is for me to look back at so feel free to skip ahead to the pictures!)

She is WALKING! She has been for almost 3 weeks now!

She is SUPER cautious! haha she hardly ever fell at first because she was so controlled with her steps and SLOW! 

She is getting a bit more daring now. 

She is now taking 2 naps daily!! She wakes up a little earlier these days so I think that helps but the real trick was a PILLOW! 

(thanks Ceds) She absolutely LOVES laying on it! and she stays in the same place now while sleeping! It's so cute. We put her binkie on her pillow after I get her out of her crib and she is so happy to see it again when you gets back in ;)

She LOVES anything soft! She will rub it on her face or put in on the floor and then lay on it. 

She LOOOOVES her Pooh Bear! Thanks MISSY! we actually may need to 

buy a backup in case we lose this one. She drags him everywhere with her, and usually in her armpit or held up on her shoulder! 

She laughs a lot now. She has ALWAYS been so happy and will smile at anyone and everyone but was never really a "laugher". She did it, just not unless she was really impressed. Now she's quite the chuckler!

She is still TALL and SKINNNNY. But she is an AWESOME eater. She likes almost everything we have given her and for how little she is, she seems to eat a lot! 

She LOVES the water! She is happy to stick her head under and splash around. She is also a really good "bubble blower"! I can't wait for summer to take her to the pool!!

We are just starting to do baby sign with her, she is really good at please and is starting to get thank you down. She knows with please she will most likely get what she wants so she is quick to do that one! 

I can't believe she turns one in just a few short weeks! AH! Time really does fly. 

 She has been such a good baby and has been such a treat to be around. I could not imagine loving anyone more than I love my Tyson and Hazyl, and I had know idea that the combo of the two of them would make my love greater for them individually. If that makes sense. 

I am so blessed to be a mother and to receive all the blessings that come with motherhood!

ON TO EASTER :)

Hazy got spoiled at both grandparents house, it was so much fun to be able to go home to each family and spend some time there.

Forget Easter Dresses, and Ties...Easter swim suits are WAY more fun!!

We NEEDED a little picture of these three bathing beauties! (and derek in his sweats of course)


It started out harmless and that lasted about .5 seconds



Hazy was NOT thrilled. Haha look how uncomfortable she is making Annistyn! haha


Ah well, you can't win them all.




Sweet Maybel.

Easter definitely did us well this year. I love this time of year and the wonderful focus that it brings to our lives. Christ lives and loves us, and I am ever grateful for that!!
