Hazel had a great time at this weeklong summer camp. The week ends with a live performance, where Hazel played the keyboard on one song and sang on another. https://www.schoolofrock.com/locations/pasadena
Last week, I tried to take most of the week off to have “Daddy Camp” with the girls for their last week of summer. I didn’t succeed completely, but I did take a fair chunk of the week off. One of the things we did
I told Hazel she could pick something from the $1 toys, mostly because I feel bad she has been sick. She picked the monkey hat.
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
As we got into the car, Hazel was a little upset. She looked at Kim and said, “Mommy sit” and pointed to the seat next to her car seat. Kim agreed. Then Hazel said, “Daddy sit” and pointed to the other seat in the back
Hazel now does quite a bit of pretend play. She’ll pretend to eat and drink food that isn’t there or “pick” berries off the picture in a grocery store flyer and feed them to us. Here, Kim suggested she close her eyes and pretend to

Oh Hazel! My little truffle pig. I’ve wanted a baby for so long and now I have one and you’re even better than I imagined… From Geoff to Hazel. Made my heart melt.
[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
Tonight, she had some hiccups. It’s the kind of thing that probably only parents and grandparents would find as entertaining as we did, but we loved it. It was also some of the longest views of her eyes we’ve had. Right now, they are a
