Hazel’s 10th week

november-2009-070-blog
At 10 weeks Hazel has more than doubled her birth weight and I do believe most of the weight has settled in her cheeks.  She has been such a joy to us.  A big fat demanding joy.  She is as happy as a lark as long as mama is toting her around.  As soon as I try to set her down, her eyes pop open and she starts to howl.  This makes it hard to accomplish much else, but I am cherishing these moments.

There is nothing like a big open-mouth baby smile.  All 10 of us enjoy coaxing them out of Hazel and it isn’t too hard at this age.  She has even  started to do that wonderful belly laugh.  You know the kind that is almost involuntary?  Oh how we adore those.
