He’s asked to hold her every morning since she’s been born. Today they sat next to each other for the first time. #henryandhazel #shematchesthepillow
“May you grow in your own sweet way, and blossom more everyday, and follow the music in your soul, may there be time for you to grow.” Favorite Tom Chapin song from my childhood says it best. // At #threemonthsold she’s a 👌🏻night sleeper, day-time 🐈 napper, social 🦋 and loves to be wherever the action (aka Henry) is — and protests (loudly) when she misses story time with big brother. Future 📚 🐛? #12monthsofhazeljoann #hazeljoann
Pretty much sums up how we all feel when aunt Sarah and uncle Caleb come to town. 🤩😃
Yup, that about sums it up. #8daysofsingleparenting
Mother-son self portrait attempt #1. We laughed at this “failed” picture but I rather like how it turned out. He may not always be at the center of the frame anymore and I’m still adjusting to not always being fully present, but thankfully motherhood is designed for flexibility and you find a way to love in your new normal. Besides, isn’t the composition far more interesting a little off balance? #andthentherewere2 #coffeeandcrumbs
Judging by my IG feed I haven’t been very active on here in the last month but she’s been busy growing! #hazeljoann #twomonthsold #12monthsofhazeljoann
Henry has been debating the pros and cons of living in the city v country these last few weeks. It might have something to do with his City Mouse Country Mouse story tape we listen to at rest time. But more likely it’s from all the conversations he’s heard in the house lately. Today we looked at a farm that wasn’t quite what we were hoping for. But this stained glass window catching the sun in the rafters of the historic 1890s barn was definitely a highlight. Some day we may find ourselves in the country but for now I’m pretty happy being a city mouse 🐭

Gaining weight like a champ and ready for the gun show 🐮🥛💪🏻#thathairgrabthough #threeweeksold #hazeljoann
She came swiftly into this world, in just around two hours, and now has slowed the tempo of our days. And yet, her rapid growth (almost a full pound in two weeks!) and development reminds us that newborns don’t keep. Time, you funny thing! #twoweeksold #hazeljoann
