Happy Birthday Baby Hazel!

Hazel is one month old today! You might ask what a young Hoosier does on her one-month birthday. Well mostly she eats and sleeps, but "Baby Hazel" (as her 2-year-old cousin Audrey has taken to calling her) also had a bath today and helped Momma with the laundry. She is super excited because Daddy is coming home at lunch-time and we're all going to the grocery store! Oh exciting birthday!

For those of you who don't know, we are proud to report that Hazel has taught herself how to roll from her back to her front. She demonstrated her new skill for us twice last Sunday night and then again once on Monday and once on Tuesday, but she has been stubborn about showing off since then. If we manage to catch it on video, we may post it to prove what a genius and athletic little girl we have.

And last but not least, we want to say welcome to Matthew Daniel Kumm, Hazel's newest cousin, born on Tuesday afternoon. She is so excited to have a playmate who's roughly her size. Someone send us pictures!

To satisfy Hazel's avid admirers, here are a few photos taken on her one month birthday....

And a few from this past week, which Daddy took of Hazel in Daddy's favorite outfit...
