Just Another Day at the Office

Looks like this never uploaded to the blog.  I wrote this on July 26th.....

These fellas all went to work together today.  Yep!  Rich's office had a bring your kid to work day so both boys went.  I think they had a day full of activities for the kids which should be fun.  

And Zach had a loose tooth that finally fell out today!

Hazel Mac is ONE!!!

Hazel is becoming quite the little lady and is the big number 1 today!  We spent the past few days having fun as a family in Elkhart Lake, WI but I'll post those photos at a later date.  Right now let's focus on little miss Hazel Mac.  She is getting so big, has a beautiful head full of hair, and is pulling up to standing all the time.  She walks around furniture or with our help but is yet to take steps on her own.  She's close though! 

Hazel Mac has added so much more fun and laughs to our family.  Yes....3 little people are hard but its worth it.  The boys adore her still but she has no trouble putting them in their place when they do something she doesn't like.  She's pretty much the boss of the house these days. 

Here is her year in review......

And just like Gunnar at this age, you can't keep her in one place for very long.  Peace out!

She was ready to cruise in her new ride from Nana and Boppa but wasn't a huge fan of getting messy with cake.  We will see how she does when we celebrate more this weekend.  Happy Birthday Hazel!

Here are the links to Zach and Gunnar at this age.  It's fun to look back and see them being so small!

11 Months and 1 day

Hazel Mac is getting big!  She is 11 months old now and is on the move.  She crawls everywhere and constantly chases after her brothers.  She pulls up to standing but has quite figured out how to move feet.  And her smile is getting to be quite toothy!  We all just lover this girl.

 

Blue Hair, Don't Care

Well, last week was a mohawk and then crazy hair day came around again.  We have stepped it up a notch!  Blue hair!  

 

I think this all must have started three years ago when he had to have a blue birthday party!

Happy Birthday Gunnar!

Gunnar is 4 today!  Can you believe it?  I can't!  Neither can he really. He woke up excited and declared he is bigger today.  In fact he says he feels like he's as big as four and a half and he's already planning his fifth birthday party.  

This boy was in a hurry to come into this world four years ago but these days he rarely gets moving too quickly.  He is a fun loving, curious creature that typically gets distracted when something like putting on shoes is the task at hand.  Gunnar has grown so much this last year and has become more independent and rarely lacks confidence.  He has the ability to be hilariously funny and super sweet and he knows he's got my number and can make me laugh when I'm mad at him.  And if you want to feel like a million bucks when a child opens your present, give that present to Gunnar.  No matter the gift his enthusiasm is adorable!  This kid is definitely going to do big things.

Today was low key with presents, playing and a movie in the backyard.  The big dinosaur party with friends will happen next week so more pictures to come!

Happy Birthday Gunnar!

 

 

 

Crazy Hair Day!

I just posted this on Facebook but wanted to make sure I had record of it here.  I'm traveling for work and it's crazy hair day at Zach's school tomorrow.  This kid and his dad's commitment to the fun turned into this.  I LOVE IT!!

 

10 Months and Happy Easter!

This little cutie turned 10 months old over the weekend!  She is crawling everywhere now and starting to pull up on things although she usually only gets up to her knees thus far.  Hazel is a good eater and wants some of whatever you are having which I find funny.  Her hair is getting long enough that I try to clip it back some days but she has fun pulling the bows out of her hair.  Hazel's laugh is contagious so I'll try to get some video of it and post is here.  We can't believe how big she is getting (22lbs, 5oz).  She is waving, clapping her hands and loves being "so big!"

Happy 10 months!!

 

 

On another note.....HAPPY EASTER!!!!

We had a fun filled weekend with an adventure to a park in the city on Friday, a neighborhood egg hunt on Saturday and Easter dinner with family today.  I'll let the pictures do most of the talking.
