She seems out, but last time I tried to move, she woke up…. Thank god for smart phones.

Blowing dandelions at story park. Almost wishing we were members of the church having a picnic, because it looks delicious.

It has been a long, long, long drive home. In my defense, those are apple slices and she is drinking milk.

Hazel says hooray for reciprocal agreements. Only $7.50 to go the San Francisco zoo!

Hazel and I are having a blast trying some of the rides at the Santa Cruz boardwalk.

We’re at the Santa Cruz surf contest, and Hazel keeps saying something that sounds very much like "I’m a taco!". Very excited, and with a big grin. No idea what it means, but it keeps making me laugh.“I’m a taco"

Zoo

We rode our bike to the zoo today. Hazel napped on the ride, then loved the zoo.

Hazel is helping make garden markers for the seeds we are planting.

Hazel climbed this structure to the top with no help. She was very, very excited at the top.

Hazel has a posse. She wants them to go with her everywhere, and wants them in bed. She asks for them by name. Minnie, Eek Eek (a dolphin), and one of three human baby dolls that seem pretty interchangeable right now.

She has been carrying this bag of onions all over the store, and gets upset if I take it away.

She is having half a whole wheat bagel for breakfast. She was very particular about what she wore today.

I asked her what she wanted, and she said "turdle".

Very excited about the “turdle” sticker’s. There were hundreds of stickers, but I asked Hazel which she wanted, and she picked out turtles.  

I love storytime with Daddy. So do Dolly and Eek Eek. Hazel

She is very, very careful to clean her plate.

My arm is getting tired. Still waiting on lab results. [tag sick]

There is probably no child rearing issue that Kim and I disagree on more often (mild, but frequent) than what to dress Hazel in. Kim -“I think she’s cold.” Me – “she’s fine.” Kim- “I’m putting a sweater on her” Me- “Kim, it’s 68, sunny,

This was taken while hazel was a month or two old, certainly way before she started raiding the snack pantry and asking for "help" with canned goods.

Just coloring before dinner. Hazel hold a pencil and crayon surprisingly well thanks to Popo.

We wonder if she is a budding fashionista. At the park and when we are out, she loves pushing mom and dad away so that we don’t walk too close. Then she walks ahead, turns around to wave and grin widely, before turning back around

Dear Hazel, Today is July 2, 2012. This letter has been a long time coming, but you see, with the remodeling and the move, and all the time spent just adoring you, your parents have been too busy documenting for posterity just how much we’ve

Katy, We did some planting too… Geoff [categories Hazel,DailyLife]

Dear Zoe, I really like to dress myself. But its hard. I spent 10 minutes trying to get the tights on. I gave up, and tried to put a tshirt on, but something seemed wrong. My dad keeps trying to help, but I want to

Hazel knows the word swing, but I didn’t recognize it fast enough. Finally did. She is happy now. Sent from my phone. Please forgive typos and brevity. [categories Hazel,DailyLife]
