Don’t tell katy

But this morning, the pink tutu and wings dress up kit and the Dr dress up kit were right next

Honey

Hazel just came up to me with a toy bottle: H – "This is honey. Do you want some?" Me- "yes, please" H- " Put out your finger" Me – "Huh?" H – "Put out your finger, like at the farmer market" Me- "OHHHHH" H- "You can have sample. You can have sample on your […]

It was a big hit.

I have video of her putting it together, but it might need some editing, it took over 30 minutes to put together. =) Thanks for coming yesterday. Let’s get together again soon so we can catch up more. Geoff

Things Hazel said

  The other night, Geoff had to run an errand and I had to do the night time routine of teeth brushing, pajamas, hard working cream, and storytime. While we were getting into pajamas, Hazel crawls onto her toddler bed and lies down to say, “Hazel sad.” I said, “Why Hazel?” She says, “Hazel sad […]

Umbrella

Hazel didn’t want to wait until January to try her new umbrella out.

Second Birthday!

First was from lunch downtown with Kim, then with her firetruck, making dinner, the spread, and then desert. (layered coconut pudding with mango pudding)

Umbrella

I told Hazel she could have whatever she wanted for her birthday. She chose sushi.

Puzzles

Hazel just finished putting together a 50 piece puzzle. Kim helped her, by handing her the next logical piece and sometimes helping her look for colors/patterns that match, but Hazel puts every piece in place. This was her biggest puzzle completed to date.

Elephants and gardening

" Dear Grandma, Daddy told me you used to collect elephants. I got a watering can the other day shaped like one. I love it. It’s even going out today with me, instead of Minnie,Reggie or Flamingo. Watering plants is fun, though daddy said something about it being inefficient to use his hose to fill […]

“It’s soooo cold!”

Our local Costco built a new big room for dairy and eggs. It has fans that blow across the opening, and there is probably a 30° ( or more) difference in temperature across the opening. Hazel loved it. She’d stand outside, then run into the cold. She’d do a little dance, while squealing, laughing and […]

Great day sailing

Had an awesome day on the boat yesterday. Went to Long Beach Harbor Great place to sail. Lot’s of open space, but protected by a breakwater so no big swells. Lot’s of bird, saw sea lions on the boueys. Fun. We had enough wind most of the day that I never raised the jib. Hazel […]

Talking

Hazel has really, really advanced language skills. I really need to record more of it. Everywhere we go, strangers comment on it. At just under 2 years old, she is forming long, complex sentences, I’ve counted as many as ten words. She uses adjectives correctly, she is starting to get pronouns, and is very good […]
