Goofing off

Hazel licking a sandal to be gross. Hilarity ensues.

Lizard

We have tons of lizards in our garden, but this was the first time I found one in the house. He was tiny. Caught him in a cup. The girls were so excited and wanted to keep him, but I convinced them he’d be happier living in our yard. After a tearful goodbye, we released […]

Mommy and mornings

Margot is very much a "Mommy’s girl". Kim is leaving for work early these days, and that frequently means Margot misses Kim in the morning, and Margot has a hard time with that, and cries for Mommy. Today, Hazel drew a picture for Margot to help her feel better. Hazel said the picture was "Mommy […]

Tooth

First tooth lost without help from the dentist.

Construction

Hazel thought it was pretty awesome to get to write on the walls.

Aloha Friday

I had no idea, but apparently today was Aloha Friday at the restaurant supply Place. Hazel happened to be wearing a Hawaiian print dress and I don’t think they have many kids in the restaurant supply store so all the workers were looking at her and smiling and happy and several of them wanted pictures […]

Margot’s smile

Margot has a wonderful smile when she’s happy. The way to see it to make a joke or do something silly make her laugh. The way NOT to see it is to say "Smile!" or "Cheese!" lol

Crazy

Kim’s gone on fun/work travel. I’m trying to tie up the loose ends for the grand opening, and Hazel has no summer program this week, so everything has been a little insane. But the girls and I are making the most of it and enjoying the time, even if it’s hard for me to keep […]

Chapter books

I bought Hazel a 291 page chapter book yesterday, she hadn’t really tried reading a chapter book but I thought she was ready. She finished the entire book in under 24 hours, barely put it down. I even quizzed her on parts because I was wondering if she skipped or skimmed it, but she knew… […]

Bookworm

She wants to sit on the floor and read books at Target. Reminds me of me.

Alexa

Margot and Hazel are playing "Alexa"Margot says "Alexa, please play 5 little monkeys" Hazel says " I found 5 Little monkeys by Mother good club" and then sings the song.

Birthday party

We’re at a birthday party at kids gym. Margot doesn’t want to play, but is very happy with the Mac and cheese and watching.

Fly trap

I bought a Venus Fly Trap plant. Hazel is sitting, very ,very, very patiently, hoping to see it eat a fly.

Strawberries

Kim bought two white strawberry plants to add to the strawberry wall. They are small, but delicious. I’ve got a few empty spots on the wall, I might need to find a few more of these plants. Only issue now is Margot wants to pick all the unripe red strawberries that look similar. (Pictured are […]

Poop

Margot just pooped, two poops, a bigger and smaller. She said " ooooh, two poops. One Hazel poop and one Margot poop. "

Black Diamond

Hazel was VERY excited to ski her first Black Diamond runs yesterday. She did an awesome job.

Watching videos

Hazel earned some video time, so I was letting them watch a little. I was doing a few things on the computer, and looked up to see them watching like this.

Nature Girl wand

"Nature Girl" wanted a magic wand. We made two, one for each of them. Hazel was thrilled. The shaft is decorated with butterflies and ladybugs.
