It's cold out!

Winter has arrived - it's snowing right now.

Hazel has the snug-as-a-bug bit sorted.  Her she is in her new pusher sleeping bag thingee!

Grinning

Hazel's best cheeky monkey face, after being found ripping the pegs off the clothes horse....

....and her best 'I got new shoes, and a new shoe box' smile!

Autumn afternoon at the park

 Lovely afternoon spent at our local park, kicking the ball around and waving to the beautiful people.

It wasn't a prearranged playdate, but Mia and her folks had the same idea too!

Hazel's new pusher

I managed to assemble Hazel's birthday present from her Mamie and Papy today.  

She knew exactly what it was for, and didn't really want to wait until I got the wheels on to load her dolls into it.  As soon as I did though, the three of them were off for a stroll.

Birthday weekend!

This weekend we went to Hazel's grandparent's house for a party to celebrate Hazel's first birthday, and Claire's birthday (which is the day before Hazel's).  Some friends from the UK came over for the party!

Hazel had a fabulous time.
She loved seeing old friends....

She enjoyed the singing...

...and the cake.

And the presents weren't to shabby either.

Even if it did take three men, and a looooooonnnnng time to construct them!

All round excellent weekend!
