To learn she could reach the water fountain all by herself. She is now very, very well hydrated
Hazel and I had an awesome day exploring both the Natural History Museum, where we are members, and the amazing, free, California Science Center, which are adjacent to each other. We’ve been before, but Hazel loves both and each time we seem to find something
We rode the train to downtown, visited Kim at work, and then to the museums. Hazel had made butterfly wings and antennae at Kidspace a day or two earlier, and wanted to wear it on the trip.
Hazel is getting started gardening. We planted sunflower seeds, and got our first sprout. She’s also picked out her own tomato plants for the yard.
Last night we read the "eating fractions" book mom/grandma. Tonight we went to in n out, and I got Hazel a cheese and tomato sandwich. I asked her, "hazel, do you want me to cut it in half, or thirds? " Hazel replied "thirds" I
Peat moss is expensive. Hazel asked to sit by the windows so we could watch the cars.
Hazel was helping me sweep and clean the backyard today. It was slower than if I’d been working myself, but closer to actually helpful! G
Some pent up energy. And yes, the helmet is nearly useless, but it’s all they have…
No fever, no rash. Dr declared her not a risk for spreading disease. She’s her happy self again. Learning to play the ukulele.
She still has a low fever, like 100-101, but she seems to be feeling a bit better. This is the most she has played with toys in days.
At the dr, they didn’t want to let us in the waiting room, due to germ fears. Ugh. Waiting in hallway. Guess who picked her own outfit Hazel (Hazel saw me typing, and wanted to spell her name, which is what is above)
Hazel woke from her nap with a specific request to walk and get ice cream. She was pretty happy for about 30 minutes, but it’s back to sick and fussy. Didn’t even finish a single scoop of ice cream… :/
Last night was rough. She was super.fussy. Feverish even with medicine. I’ve been carefully spacing the Tylenol since too much can be bad for the liver, but it means that the fever returns faster than the next dose. She’s been between 100-104 for a long
It’s been a rough couple days with both Hazel and I being sick. I sent Kim to her mom’s since nobody knows exactly what’s wrong with us. I’ve got a sore throat and cough. Hazel has that, plus an ear infection, runny nose, and red
Is good for something. This is how I finally got a feverish, stuffy, fussy little girl to nap
It’s really funny how Hazel really likes routines. She used to ask for Daddy to help her get to bed, but as of the last few months, she’s asked for Mommy and the patterns are pretty clear. Here bedtime routine is this: One story for
Hazel did her firetruck puzzle this morning, then wanted to put on her costume. The picture was my idea. =)
We picked some of our cauliflower the other day. I forget the name of the variety, but it has a cool purple hue to it. I was taking pictures of it inside, and Hazel asked to be in the picture. While we were taking pictures,
Hazel has made a little friend today, who is being awesome and playing with her and taking her down the slides. I asked hazel if she wanted me to go with her, and she said "no, I want to go with my big kid friend"
We walked past this wall today, and with no prompting, hazel asked for me to take her picture. Might be the last time she wears this dress, it was a bit tough to get on this morning. 🙁
