lid kid everyday life
seven months. (and 11 days).
hazel hit the seven month milestone a week and a half ago. i took some pictures. it’s getting harder. she never stops moving. she’s full all out crawling. and pulling up. and starting to cruise. she loves to get into the dog food. and dump the full bowl of dog water. and pull books off […]
random summer happenings.
other than our beach trip and our ny trip, we haven’t been doing much this summer. it’s way harder to do things with the treacherous trio that i had ever imagined. i think their age difference plays into that. but, mostly, we just hang out around the house and such. here’s a photo filled post […]
pools and ice cream and bubbles, mostly.
yep. so here’s what’s been happening in our little world lately… hazel had her first swim in a real pool. she was a fan. i also had anna clinging to me like i crazy person, so it made my experience a little overwhelming. but, here’s a pic before anna “joined us”. isaac. he loves the […]
six months.
today we reached an important milestone. the hazel baby is six months old. it’s no secret that i don’t love the little tiny baby stage. after six months, they are so much more fun. and resilient. and mobile. and squishy. and in my experiences, happy. hazel is like a spidermonkey. she is never ever still. […]
2014 summer to-do list.
the same as years past, we’ve listed out some things to try to accomplish this summer. so much more exciting and daunting with hazel in the mix. we have a few things that we know we are going to do (beach, batavia, and the train) and a few things that we will likely do a […]
double check ups.
so. i had the bright idea to take anna and hazel for their well child check ups at the same time. anna’s four year. hazel’s six month. they did all the required measurements and such. anna… height: 3′ 4″ tall. 50th percentile. weight: 31 lbs. 14th percentile. she’s a heavyweight. and hazel… height: 26.25″. 58th […]
the other things that have been happening lately.
besides anna turning four, hazel turning five months, the strawberry picking and the butterfly growing, these are some pics of what’s been happening around here… hazel is fast outgrowing the bumbo seat. she can almost turn herself completely around in it. and she rocks violently and it slides across the table. and this: test run […]
the metamorphosis of the painted lady.
riding the high of our super successful homeschool bee unit, we decided to try our hand at growing some butterflies. my mom had bought isaac the kit a year or so ago, so we ordered our caterpillars and got started. they came two days later. two jars with five caterpillars each. all the food they […]
five months.
a few days ago, hazel reached the five month milestone. she’s changed a ton in the last month. firstly, she can sit up unassisted. she’s pretty pleased with this new skill. her night time sleeping has been a TON better. she goes down pretty easily between 8 and 9 and stays asleep until about 630 […]
