Pink & Purple

Surprise, surprise.. another friend of ours is having a girl! I'm wondering if boys are being made anymore these days. Here's Courtney and some of the girls at her shower.

Something else pink -- the strawberry cupcakes Bri and I made. Mmm. The icing tastes like strawberry ice cream. It's the Sprinkles wanna-be recipe we found on Pinterest. The actual cupcake turned out a little purple-ish, gray-ish, but those were Courtney's colors, so it worked out.

Hazel's favorite stuffed animal right now is Rosie (also pink) the bear. A week or two ago, I noticed she was doing things to Rosie that I do to her (ie. lay her down on a diaper, put her in the Bumbo, put the Baby-Vac tube up to her nose, etc.).
The other day I told Hazel I needed to change her diaper, so she ran and got Rosie and plopped her down on the diaper. (She does tend to be a bit more rough on Rosie than I am on her... I think??) So I went along with it and put a diaper on her. Then she obviously needed clothes, so Rosie got a t-shirt, a clip in her hair, a paci, and some shoes. Love this stage!!

Hazel also had her first playdoh experience. I figured she was mostly out of the put-everything-in-your-mouth stage, so I thought I'd give it a try. I found an easy, soft playdoh recipe and went with it. I should've done the traditional red or blue color because the purple didn't turn out so well. Hazel didn't seem to mind though. We used cookie cutters and all of that, but she just preferred it in a tupperware.

Concentrating to get that lid on...
Check out the piggy face.

Squishy playdoh, squishy thighs. Both are fantastic.

Hazel is really at such a fun age. I love the picture of her sitting with Rosie. And as for boys, we have little Kyle who just turned a year old, little Holland who is 5 weeks old now; but Marshall and Shannon are having a girl. We have had a lot of boys born in our ward. The week Holand was born, there were three little boys born in our ward in one week.
