[nggallery id=4]It’s hard to believe she’s 15 days old already.  Wow.  Much of the last two weeks has been spent changing diapers and feeding, but sometimes, in between, we just chill.   She’s opening her eyes more, and will sometimes just stare.   It’s cute.

She’s getting big, fast.  We put her in an outfit today, and it seemed snug.  Wow.  Her cone head is gone, and the umbilical cord stump fell off today.   We’ve had her out once or twice, and people always ask how many months she is.  When we respond “2 weeks”, they seem a bit surprised.

Kim and I are starting to get her figured out a little better.  If she is clean, full, and burped, she is a pretty mellow, happy baby.

    Love you all,
    Aunt Cathy

Hazel was teasing me a little about my pie not being “from scratch” because I used a gluten free flour blend, while she mixes her own flour blends. I pointed out that I grew the apples, and it doesn’t get much more from scratch than

Had a fun Thanksgiving. Both girls dressed up, Hazel went with friends to trick or treat and have a sleepover. Kim and I met up with Margot and her friends and went trick or treating. Margot won a $20 gift card from a costume contest!

Hazel has been working really hard at school this year. Soccer practice 4 days a week after school, volunteering, an AP class as a freshman, student newspaper, homework, etc. There have been some late evenings and skipping some family stuff to work. She’s been putting

Kim picked pomegranates this morning. Most of these are the size of a softball, and the tree still has lots.

Margot recently decided she wanted to crochet a chicken. She didn’t have a kit or instructions. She just looked at some pictures of chickens online for “inspo” and then made this up in her head then crocheted it. I’m amazed at how she just figures

Pulp and LCD Soundsystem Hazel loves Pulp. She was a little surprised to find out they are in their 60’s and that most of the crowd is my age or older, lol. We had a really great time at the concert. Kim and Margot decided
