We're moving on.....don't worry you can still look at this blog and all it's wonderful memories. I feel convicted about the blog address, David said nobody cares they just click on a link, but I do, so we're moving on. :)

Wiser Valentine

2011-02-14T13:03:00.002-06:00

Sweet Baby Sam read the story with us. The girls love Sam, plus he has really cool books and toys. ;)

Valentines Day

2011-02-14T12:47:00.003-06:00

Our flowers. So beautiful.

David gave each of his girls flowers........he's our valentine. He's setting high standards for those boys who might someday like the Wilson girls. ;)

This morning after breakfast, the girls and I made Valentines. Hazel put stickers on cards that we made and glued hearts that I cut out. Hayden just wanted to chew on the glue stick. :)

Last of Hawaii

The Long Family

cousins

Cora loves Unkie David

Last day on the beach....more sand, more digging

Yes, he buried her this time. ;)

Whales ,Road to Hana, Lava Tube, Black Sand Beach and Cave pools

2011-02-10T19:23:00.004-06:00

Whales are difficult to photograph. :) But we saw them just about everyday, jumping and playing. Seeing them in the wild was amazing and beautiful.

We woke early and drove the famous road to Hana.

Surfers. Hazel was crying because we wouldn't let her surf. Maybe someday. :)

Lava Tube

Black Sand Beach

Very COLD fresh water cave pool.

Hazel took this picture!

More sand.....more holes dug and no I wouldn't let him cover her with sand. :)

2011-02-09T20:30:00.003-06:00

I'm sure Hazel is helping Daniel with a screenplay. Daniel, if her ideas make you millions....she gets credit right? :) We gotta pay for college. :)

I got to paddle board and I loved it. Think I could paddle board around Lake Arcadia? ;)

Beach Day 1 and 2

2011-02-09T13:14:00.004-06:00

There were several beaches that we could walk to from our house. The water, sand and sun were wonderful.

The first of many sand castles. It would be an understatement to say that Hazel loved playing in the sand......guess where she gets that from? ;)

Second castle.....everyone's in the water, Hazel's in the sand. :)

Anna's family went on the Hawaii trip too. Addison, Anna's niece was such a great playmate for Hazel. They had a blast together. I asked Hazel what her favorite part of Hawaii was and she said, "Playing with Addison."

Travel and The House

2011-02-09T12:48:00.005-06:00

Traveling worked out wonderfully. We made all our flights and did not have much delay at any airport. Hazel was a very good passenger and became quite good at going through security. She would get her own bin, take off her shoes and coat, put her dog "bob" in the bin, and would push it through to the machines. David, on the other hand had water bottles two times going through security. He's just not use to being a commoner. ;)

This is the back yard and the view from our room. Needless to say, it was so beautiful and picturesque. Everyday we would see whales and sea turtles.

The back of the house.

First Days of Vacation

2011-02-09T09:49:00.002-06:00

We made a quick decision and left a day earlier than planned for our trip to Hawaii. Thank goodness, because we would have been snowed in and probably never made it out of our house. (Sorry Oklahomans who had to survive the winter storm). Anyway, Hazel and I stayed in Portland with Daniel, Anna and Cora 2 days before we made our way to the beach.

Look at Cora's little swimsuit!

One afternoon, while Anna was at work, Daniel took us to the horse races. They had to dress the part of course. :)

MeMoe

2011-01-30T14:44:00.003-06:00

Thanks for all your help, comfort and love. It's often the moms (or MeMoes) that do a lot of work yet rarely get the praise. We all love you!

Milk and Cookies Birthday Party

2011-01-23T10:36:00.007-06:00

We had a milk and cookies first birthday party for Hayden on Saturday. We are so blessed by our friends and family, thank you for coming to Hayden's party and loving our children.

If you missed the party, you missed some delicious cookies (thanks Em :) ) and homemade mints (thank you Mrs. Bass :) )

The always fashionable Madelyn came dressed matching the party colors. :)

So sleepy from a great party. What a day!

And this is how sweet Hazel spent most of the day. :( She wasn't feeling well so MeMoe and Papa took one for the team and missed the party to take care of her so that we didn't have to cancel. Thank you guys for your help, you're a blessing.

ONE

2011-01-21T10:09:00.005-06:00

This year has been the fastest yet......Hayden is one today. It seems like last week we were at the hospital, but it's also funny that it's hard to remember life without her. She is the sweetest baby. Such a hugger and cuddler, she is a wonderful sleeper and generally happy. She has been walking since about 10 months, climbing stairs since 8 months and has 4 teeth. She loves to high five, wave and can say almost everyones name in the family. She feels the need to carry around her sippy cup of water at all times and has never met a nilla wafer she didn't like. I love love love this sweet baby, what a joy!

Pants?

2011-01-18T17:27:00.002-06:00

Yesterday I said, "Hazel, come upstairs and put your pants on." She said, "Who's coming over?" as if we only put pants on when people come to our house. I assure you we normally wear pants at our house. ;)

Ups and Downs :)

2011-01-07T21:42:00.004-06:00

This is a conversation that Hazel and I had while driving.....

Hazel: "Mom, that stop sign is an octagon!"

Me: "Wow Hazel! You are so smart!"

Hazel (laughing): "Mom, I just ate a booger."

Me: "Nice."

Daddy Time

2011-01-07T21:38:00.004-06:00

David is such a good daddy. He's loving, helpful and a lot of fun. :)

ipad

2011-01-03T21:22:00.002-06:00

Apparently Hazel was born already programed to be able to use an ipad.....she's a pro.

Sisters

2011-01-02T22:28:00.002-06:00

Both of these pictures were taken when the girls were around 8 months old. Very similar but unique in their own ways. I love my sweet girls. :)

Lessons from a 3 year old

2011-01-02T19:24:00.003-06:00

Hazel (crying): "My hurties are feeling."

Me (laughing): "Oh honey, do you mean your feelings are hurt?"

Hazel (still crying): "Mom, its not nice to laugh when someones hurties are feeling."

Christmas Morning

2010-12-27T10:21:00.002-06:00

Hayden and David scrambling their voices :)

Hayden loves her matching pjs ;)

Play-doh kit

Princess dress and wiggle car......what more could a girl want? :)

Little Santa Sam

2010-12-22T21:47:00.002-06:00

We all (Boom, Mimi, Sam, Hazel, Hayden and I) went and took pictures with Santa then "little man Santa" came to our house. Oh sweet baby Sam we love you. :)

Hayden was terrified. Hazel told Santa that she wanted a bunk bed and later told me she was glad he said "ho ho ho". Apparently the last Santa did not and it was a huge let down. :)

Merry Christmas from the Wilson Girls

And this is my snuggle bunny....I love it :)

Life at the Wilson House

2010-12-19T15:35:00.003-06:00

Hazel likes to play video games with David. She has her own controller and thinks she is moving the characters. I wonder how long it will be until she learns who is really "playing" the game?

The girls playing and dancing to the beats on the sit and spin.

Hazel and David putting together her bike. Thank you Grandma Pam for the birthday gift.

Hazel and PaPa putting together the power wheels tractor. Thanks for the early Christmas gift MeMoe and PaPa.

Long Awaited Update...Thank You For Your Patience :)

2010-12-19T15:24:00.005-06:00

Here's what's been going on.....

1. Hayden has been walking (at 9 months). Not taking a few steps walking, but preferred method of travel walking. Oh and that includes climbing up stairs, onto chairs, inside cabinets.....but she doesn't touch the Christmas tree (good girl).

2. Hazel is 3. Doesn't like pizza anymore and requests sushi almost daily. She still LOVES to be read to. And she makes us laugh all the time. She is so sweet to her sister. Loves to be the first to get her from her crib in the mornings and can't wait until she can share a bunk bed with her ("Is Hayden big enough for a bunk bed yet?" is also a frequent question). She sings all the time and sleep with about 10 stuffed animals in her bed.

3. We are blessed. :)

I can't believe Hazel is 3! We had a great cowgirl birthday party.

Face Painting (thank you Marsh.....you were amazing!)

Pony Rides

Lots of friends and family that we love.

That's a handsome cowboy. :)

Party Favors: Carmel corn wrapped in a bandanna with a pencil stick horse and a sheriff's star.

They Just Keep Getting Sweeter

2010-11-04T20:58:00.003-05:00

Hazel: "Can you cook dinner with one hand?"

Me: "I can cook some with one hand. Why?"

Hazel: "So you can hold me with the other."

Later on in the car while listening to Tom Petty's "Here Comes My Girl"

Hazel: "Daddy what's this song about?"

David: 'It's about a guy who loves his girl, kinda like I love you, Hayden and Mommy."

About three minutes later.

Hazel: "Daddy I love you"....singing "Here comes my boy."

Sweet Baby Samuel

2010-11-01T20:58:00.002-05:00

Our dear dear friends had their sweet precious boy this past week. I love me some Samuel.

Thunder Up!

2010-11-01T20:50:00.002-05:00

David and I have really been enjoying Thunder basketball. We went to the first game of the season, Bulls vs. Thunder. It was a great game, great seats and great company. Thanks Bass family for the tickets!

Quick Thinker

2010-11-01T14:17:00.002-05:00

Hazel wanted to ride on my mom's riding lawn mower which she calls a tractor. Here's the conversation I heard.

Hazel: "I want to ride on the tractor."

MeMoe: "We can't honey, it has a flat tire."

Hazel: "Hey! We could put some air in it!"

Almost 3

2010-11-01T14:16:00.001-05:00

Me (kissing Hazel goodnight): "You're my favorite 3 year old."

Hazel: "I'm not 3. I'm almost 3"

2010-10-03T21:48:00.003-05:00

Hazel: "I'm hungry."

Me (looking in the fridge): "Let's fix a snack. We could have....uhh......."

Hazel: "Yes, go on"

Quick Post

2010-09-19T16:08:00.002-05:00

This time of year is CRAZY......it's cross country season, so you probably have noticed a drop off in posts, sorry about that. But my cross country teams have been doing great. I have boys running 5k in the 18 minute range and girls running 2 miles in 13 minutes. I'm pretty proud of them. State is about a month away, so I'll be back soon.

Anyway here's what has been going on around our house......

Hazel has been collecting things. I've found piles of rocks in her pockets, in the bathtub, on the kitchen table and in her shoes. I'm sure there are more piles, I just haven't come across them yet. She even fell into the koi pond at church because she was "getting a rock".

Hayden has one little bottom tooth and is painfully working on more. She has been eating more and more solids, new foods everyday and crawling and pulling up on everything. I can't believe she is almost 8 months old.

They are both growing so fast and it is amazing and funny to me the way Hazel's little mind works. Here are a few....

"Mama! Go get the squeezers. I have a splinter!"

Hazel: "I'm going to get a skateboard for my birthday and a pink pogo stick."

Me: "Really? What color skateboard?"

Hazel: "Probably yellow."

Nadarajah Shower

Parents-to-be

Sarah and her sister Melissa.......both expecting baby boys.

I had to sneek this one in of sweet little man Sanders. He's going to be a big brother soon.

Watch out....Hayden's after something. Oh no worries, it's just the tissue paper. :)

Melissa threw Sarah a wonderful baby shower while she was in town over the holiday weekend. We made onesies and had delicious food. It was a wonderful celebration of a new life.

Can 2 1/2 Year Olds Spell?

2010-09-04T21:24:00.002-05:00

Me (speaking to my Dad): "Uh oh, Andy found the P-O-P that I hid."
Hazel (taking the Pepsi from Andy): "Andy, you can't have the P-O-P"

Sharing

2010-08-29T21:29:00.003-05:00

Hazel: "Mom, Hayden doesn't have any teeth."
Me: "I know, but she'll get them."
Hazel (pulling at her teeth): "I'll give her some of mine!"

Thank You Dinosaur Train

2010-08-09T20:12:00.005-05:00

Hazel: "I have a hypothesis."
Me: "Really? What is it?"
Hazel: "I'm gonna test Andy"
Me: "OK, but make it a nice test."
Hazel running after Andy: "Andy, come here I'm gonna test you!"

I'm not sure what the test ended up being, but Andy didn't seem to mind. My poor brother is so patient with Hazel. I'm thankful that they have one another.

Seriously Hayden....Seriously

2010-08-09T20:01:00.004-05:00

I'm not ready for this yet, the crawling, pulling up and grabbing everything. Maybe three days a week at crossfit is too much. ;)

Team Wilson PDX picked this little dress up for Hayden while they were in Spain. Despite that cute little pout I know she loves it. :)

Finito

2010-08-04T20:14:00.005-05:00

We finally finished sweet Hayden's nursery. She is no longer sleeping in a construction zone, but has a nice place of her own. We didn't do much, but it seems like it took a year. We painted and made an extra long curtain rod, curtains and the mobile (painted sticks from our yard, string and paper). Now on to that quilt I have been making for Hazel (it's been staring at me from the corner)......

CrossFit Accident

2010-08-02T15:42:00.008-05:00

Below is a video of a proper clean and jerk...notice that his technique does not include hitting your nose with the bar and getting 5 stitches.

2010-07-24T21:22:00.003-05:00

Hayden likes to put everything in her mouth....everything.

My grandparents just celebrated their 52nd wedding anniversary. I hope David will put up with me for that long. :)

Hazel was very interested in the 4th fireworks.....she would kneel down to look at the "expandable worm" fireworks that David got her.

SFA in the Park

2010-07-02T20:48:00.003-05:00

I wanted to take pictures, but Hayden was really interested in the grass. On a side note, I love that little elbow dimple. :)

One Stick, Two Sticks and Connect Them

2010-06-24T20:24:00.001-05:00

Hazel has been learning to write her name.....she's got the "H" down. :)

Little Painter

2010-06-19T15:22:00.004-05:00

I once judged people who took pictures of their children like this....I always thought how can your child do that if you are "watching them." Well, I no longer judge. :) I went upstairs to change Hayden's diaper and Hazel was downstairs nicely coloring away. On my way back down the stairs Hazel met me saying, "I colored myself!" Lovely......

5 Months

2010-06-18T22:18:00.004-05:00

I don't know why I bring toys along when a magazine page is more fun than anything else.

Month 5 was another month of firsts: first swim, first commercial flight and first solid foods. Poor Hayden...notice whos hand is feeding her? (Hazel is very helpful :) ) Needless to say, it was a messy first meal. Hayden was very interested in chewing the spoon. She's has eaten a different veggie each day this week.

2010-06-13T22:07:00.003-05:00

Me: "Hazel, how old are you?"
Hazel: "Six."
Me: "Really? How old is Mommy?"
Hazel: "You're a lady, you're 7."

Later that day

My Dad: "Hazel, do you know where milk comes from?"
Hazel: "BRAUMS!"
My Dad: "Well, that's not exactly what I was thinking, but you're right."

Portland: Coraline Frankie Wilson

2010-06-11T21:35:00.003-05:00

We love little baby Cora

We went to Portland (Me, David and Hayden) to meet our first little niece and cousin, Cora. She is such a cute little girl and a really great sleeper.

brothers and their baby girls

Me and my sweet little niece, Cora

It's amazing the differences in just 4 month

It looks like these girls are already up to something. "Ok girls.....what's the secret about?"

Date Night

2010-06-06T20:16:00.005-05:00

I was looking for a picture of just the two of us and this is all I could find. :) Yikes! I looked back over about a years worth of pictures and this is it....a picture of our feet! We've got to find some time together and document it. :) I say that, but we did get invited by the Wisers to a Table One dinner last Friday. I was too busy delighting in my 7 course meal that I didn't get a single picture. I'm telling you, words can't describe the flavor and deliciousness of that meal. Thanks Wisers....yet another wonderful idea.

High Fashion

2010-06-06T19:33:00.002-05:00

I know it's summer and it's hot, but Hazel woke up from her nap wearing this hat. Somewhere between me laying her down and her getting up, she decided to play dress up. I thought it was funny and very high fashion. ;)

Great Sleeper

2010-06-04T17:17:00.002-05:00

She is such a good baby, I forget to brag on Hayden sometimes. She has slept through the night (8 p.m. - 7 a.m. ) the last 8 nights! I better not jinx myself. Watch, she'll read this and revolt. ;)

She Makes Me Laugh

2010-06-04T13:38:00.003-05:00

There are several men roofing the house across the street. They are very noisy hammering, sawing and well, knocking.

Hazel: "Mommy, those men have knockers!"

2010-06-03T22:02:00.002-05:00

Quote of the Day

2010-06-03T21:43:00.002-05:00

David: "Hazel, it's time to go to bed.....it's late."
Hazel: "It's not late, it's light!"

Birthday Tree

2010-05-24T17:22:00.006-05:00

If you look closely, you can see a man in the tree swinging a chainsaw around! He just climbed right up there with one little rope attached around his waist.

David's 30th birthday is this week. For his birthday, I got him the 40 foot cedar tree in our driveway cut down. (he's a practical man :)) He hated that tree.....it rained sap on our cars and was right in the way of what could be a 2 car driveway. I feel like a horrible person for getting a tree that tall cut down, think of all the years it's been beside our house. Oh well.....it's gone. :/

Hazel

What The Hail!

2010-05-17T21:47:00.005-05:00

It never fails that crazy stuff happens when David is at work. Thirty minutes after he left, this happened......

I'm not sure if you can tell, but our street had a flash flood as well.

David's been home for a few days and it's been WONDERFUL!

Play Dates

2010-05-14T22:03:00.003-05:00

Hayden slept right through her little play date with Emma. Well have to work on her manners. ;)

Cousin Julian was the first buddy to ride on the teeter totter. These two year olds are pros, no assistance required. :)

Teeter Totter Makeover

2010-05-14T21:48:00.002-05:00

Dennis brought us this teeter totter from Tulsa. It was once played on and loved by the Wilson boys, now the Wilson girls will enjoy it. I love Hazel's expression in the first photo "Oh dear this thing needs help".

A little sanding, paint and (good thing my father-in-law owns a trim shop) fancy new padded seats.

Teeter tottering has been Hazel's treat the last few days for taking a nap, she loves it.

Announcement

2010-05-04T13:27:00.003-05:00

OK.....I know, I know....Hayden is 3 months old and I am just getting her baby announcements out. I've been a little busy. :) I know everyone is aware of her existence so this is not much of an announcement, but I wanted to do it for a keepsake. :)

Tired Tiger

2010-04-22T21:12:00.002-05:00

Most children at the arts festival wanted a heart or rainbow painted on their cheek. Not our child, she specifically asked to be a tiger. It's a little smudged because of the tears she cried when she learned a hard lesson about what happens when you let your balloon go. Being 2 is tough. ;)

Sisters

2010-04-20T10:27:00.003-05:00

I think this is the beginning of a beautiful thing. :)

Beer and Brownie Birthday

2010-04-20T00:05:00.003-05:00

My little brother turned 28 today and I can't believe it. If you don't know Andy, he is the happiest guy you will ever meet. He also loves beer and brownies. :) He has williams syndrome, but has taught me more about life and what matters most, than any "normal" person. Happy 28th Buddy, we love you!

Hayden's Room

2010-04-19T23:58:00.002-05:00

I haven't finished the curtains, pillows or mobile, but the room is painted and the art my wonderful friends (Ashley and Sarah) created is up. I love the way it's turning out. More updates to come. Maybe by the time she's one, I'll have her room done (poor second child). ;)

RaRa

2010-04-19T23:56:00.003-05:00

We had a nice visit from Sara this week...Hazel calls her RaRa. :)

Happy Baby

2010-04-11T21:57:00.001-05:00

Hayden is such a happy baby.

Marsh's Eggstravaganza

2010-04-07T10:22:00.002-05:00

For the last three years we have been invited to Sharla's house for her fabulous Easter party. First there is the kiddie hunt which Hazel really cleaned up in, as you can see her basket is overflowing. Then the adult hunt, which is ruthless and there is always an injury. David, who has won the last three years wasn't able to make it. It was nice of him to let someone else win for a change. All bets are off for next year. :)

It's been a long week. Hazel has been sick, David's been gone and well.......I had an incident with this tree. Knock on wood, but in 15 years of driving this is the only thing I've hit. This is my parents driveway and the cones are my moms attempt at humor after the incident. :)

Real Live Easter

My parents live on 5 acres and well......these were in Hazel's Easter basket. Glad they live at Memoe and PaPa's house. ;)

Easter

2010-04-04T17:13:00.004-05:00

It was just a girls Easter this year. David started simulator training today in St. Louis. The simulators are so expensive that the company never stops them, they run 24 hours a day. When David was a new hire his sim slot was from 11 p.m. - 5 a.m. There is a lot that goes into learning a new aircraft. 3 Exams (written, oral and flight) and a lot of study and classroom time. So if you think of him this week from 1 p.m.- 7 p.m. he'll be in the sim.

Back to Easter....this was the first Sunday that I was alone in getting both girls ready and out the door on time. I wouldn't say we were early, but we made it. :) While I was driving to church with all the hustle I had a moment where I realized none of this "easter" stuff matters, in fact it's silly. Relationships are what matter. Our relationship with the Lord and others. I'm thankful to be a part of a church that is helping us grow in both ways. And it's still fun to get the girls all dressed up....they're pretty cute. :)

Homemade Easter Dresses

2010-04-01T18:26:00.005-05:00

I've been staying up way to late working on these Easter dresses for the girls, but I have been enjoying myself. :) These are the first things I've made using a pattern. But halfway through making them I folded the pattern up and put it away because I didn't understand all the sewing jargon. I come from a long line of seamstress' and I started remembering watching my mom and grandma sew. See mom, I was listening......they turned out pretty good ;)

Of course what is an Easter dress without a flower headband. :)

Easter Preview

Hazel had an Easter egg hunt at school this week. Every child was told to bring 12 plastic candy filled eggs. They are very careful and specific to remind the parents not to bring any candy that has peanut butter or nuts (which every chocolate candy has) because of allergy concerns. So I filled Hazels eggs with a sticker and a little animal toy, no candy. When I picked her up we were going through her eggs and I found two that had bubble gum in them and one that had a large JAW BREAKER! I don't know about others, but Hazel doesn't "chew" gum. And please tell me that people don't allow their two year olds to have jaw breakers?

I made this ridiculous Easter basket for her with left over ruffles from another project. Anyone who knows me might be shocked at how girly it is.....I'm coming around. ;)

Choose Your Battles

Me: "What kind of eggs should we make for breakfast?"
Hazel: "I want crumpled eggs."
Me: "Oh, you mean scrambled eggs?"
Hazel: "No! CRUMPLED EGGS."
Me: "Crumpled eggs it is."

Hayden's Day

2010-03-27T20:21:00.007-05:00

Emily, Sara and Jess hosted a sweet party for little Hayden. Em's house was decorated so beautifully, the food was yummy (love those homemade mints, Mrs. Bass :) ) and Hayden got so many cute presents. Em put together a little onesie project.....everyone decorated a onesie with cute fabric cutouts. My friends are so crafty ;) I am so blessed to have such beautiful and thoughtful friends. What a wonderful day to celebrate little Hayden's life.

Circus

2010-03-27T19:14:00.005-05:00

Hazel and David went to the circus while Hayden and I were at Hayden's Baby Shower. The day was for Hayden, but somehow Hazel got to have a pretty cool day too. :) I don't know all the acts they saw, but I did get a text that said, "We just saw a bear ride a motorcycle...unassisted!". I also found out that cotton candy was involved. David said that he was looking around for a mommy to ask for a wet one to clean up with....Daddy's just aren't that prepared. :) And the best part that I heard about all day long was, "Mommy, we rode an ELEPHANT!".

Another Reason Why I Love Him

These were delivered Wednesday morning.....

As many of you know, David has been in training and hasn't been home as often as with his normal flight schedule. So getting these beautiful flowers made my week. Family and friends have made this time bearable, but him being gone for only 3 nights a week sounds pretty good about now. :)

Rock Awesome Video

2010-03-19T10:03:00.005-05:00

We were so lucky to be a part of the first video shoot to Sugar Free All-Stars upcoming album "Funky, Fresh and Sugar Free". The video was for the song Rock Awesome....which Wiser (aka Boom) had the idea for after he heard a little boy say that Sugar Free All-Stars were "Rock Awesome!"....kids know best. :) Hazel had a blast!
