For Hazel's birthday we made Pancakes, her favorite and made a face in it. We played and danced and she thought it was terrific. She loves music. She is wearing her birthday shirt from last year in this picture--Lame-o!!
Hazel is so tough. She will try anything and she is a super good listener. She does not want to be called a baby. She is the most nurturing of all my kids. She wears all emotions outwardly. When dad's car pulls into the driveway, you will not find a more excited child. She jumps and runs and yells all at once until he is in and she is in his arms. She literally is changing before our eyes, everyday she pushes her limits trying to get it all in.
Hazel turned 2 this month!! What an accomplishment for all of us :) She is a mover. She wants to try EVERYTHING and do it BY HERSELF. John traveled for most of the month so he wasn't even home for her birthday or birthday party :( So we did it again when Mimi and Bapo arrived :)
For this event we did a Rainbow theme. We made rainbow cupcakes, six different homemade playdough colors and just played with our friends. According to Rand, it was the lamest party EVER :) We did make some decorations but obviously not enough for Rand.
Rand made her shirt using a tutorial from Pinterest. He colored it backwards including her name so when it was ironed on from the Sandpaper it appeared the correct direction. I thought he did a fantastic job. But I should have cut it out and put it on a colorful shirt. Next time we will plan more in advance :) Right? What was I thinking have a kid in December.
Anyway, WE LOVE HER. We are going to keep her :) Looking forward to what 2 brings.

Happy Birthday Hazel!
Beautiful! Hazel is the best! Happy 2nd birthday!
I love that face-- it is so expressive and open and beautiful.You have an exceptional family-- cudos to you and John.
That Hazel loved her Birthday celebrations without needing lots of extras tells me she is a happy person thoroughly enjoying life.
Who could imagine life without her.
She is so, so, SO, SO adorable! They love their birthdays no matter how little you do, so no worries!
And to save myself a step, I'll tell you that the ward Christmas party looks awesome. Too bad your kids weren't dressed as you would have liked -- hate disappointments that are dumb like that -- but I'm sure they were adorable anyway. I looked at the first pic of the cupcakes and thought, "Really?!? There are people other than Carrie out there who do this good-lookin' stuff?" Then I saw that you were in charge. Phew!
