A momentus occasion

We've had a crazy few weeks. Two weeks ago we were playing outside a lot because it was in the 70s every day. By the end of the week though, it was so cold our pipes froze and we had snow. We went outside to check it out but did not like it very much. Mom thought we'd have a good time playing in it but instead we cried until she took us inside.

Also over the snowy weekend, Hazel got a haircut. She did not like it very much, but now her bangs aren't in her eyes.

She is also climbing on things like crazy and talking a lot more. This morning she said to Mom, "Get up out of bed!" Later, she told us she had to poop. Mom asked if she wanted to go in the potty and she said yes. And then she did it! When Hazel did it, she laughed. Afterward, we cheered for her. It was very exciting -- especially since I still don't want anything to do with the potty -- and here's hoping it's the start of a trend.

I've been saying a lot of funny things lately too, like, "Vultures are the best birds in the world." My reading and writing are really getting amazing too. Today we made daddy a birthday card and I wrote "Dad" on it all by myself, without Mom telling me to do it or how to spell it. I also told Mom they were having a birthday party for Dad at his work today, which they thought was very funny and cute.
