Hazel loves to get mail, and likes to hang it on the line we have up in her room.

A little boy is very patiently trying to teach Hazel how to read a clock.

Last night Hazel threw an epic tantrum. Like a half hour of screaming. I tried everything. Ignoring. Sympathizing. When she hit me, I took away a toy. Then I said, “ok, Hazel, only good girls get to go Starbucks. If you keep yelling, I’m taking

50¢ is a small price to pay to get a solid minute of her million dollar smile on a day like today. Edit   I wish it was just that. Margot is actually super mellow. Still early to tell if it’s personality, or a side

Margot is content to suck on her pacifier and stare out the window. Geoff and I aren’t sure if we should be grateful or concerned. Baby lethargy from jaundice or mellow baby. Hazel was never like this. I guess time will tell.

"Infants are the drill sergeants of parenting bootcamp. They give you four basic tasks – diapers, burping, feeding, and napping – and then scream at you when you do them wrong. There’s no encouragement, no smiles, just crying and quiet. And they give you tasks

Kim is getting released today, but not until the afternoon. I took Hazel to kidspace this morning for an easter egg hunt. (Kims mom went to the hospital) Fun fun!

First time I was able to get her to sleep. She likes to nurse, so so far I’ve been a poor substitute for Kim. Trying to let kim get a little rest.

Hazel is excited her new wagon has a cup holder for her Starbucks

Hazel got some new "Look and find" books the other day, which she loves. When I was making dinner, she wanted PoPo to help her read them. They were having a good time.

Hazel’s first hot dog!

Are taking a long time today.

Hazel is pretty happy with the wagon we picked up yesterday.

I asked Hazel to hold it carefully.
