Knowing "no"


As we were walking into the park today, Juniper pointed to this sign and announced, "That word says no." This is not a sign we've read or discussed before today. In fact, I don't recall ever talking about any no parking signs with Juniper. To prove that it wasn't a fluke, later in the evening she independently pointed out the "no" on a no smoking sign at a restaurant.

Our girl is a reader - a very early, beginning reader! (Given her current state of stubborn independence, it seems quite fitting that the first word she can read is no.)

Have muffin, will travel


From Janet's visit in the fall, she and Juniper go for a ride on the train in the church playground.

Tummy Time


Unlike her older sister, Hazel actually seems to enjoy tummy time. She'll certainly let us know when she's tired and has had enough, but she'll happily push herself up for quite a while.



Another difference from her older sister is the amount Hazel spits up. We had no idea.

Quotable Juniper


I'm yawning because I'm so tired that I need to play.

I will do all I can to defend the earth and stop you from peeing.

Can we climb on the NASA?

To go order


I'll have one baby, all in blue, with a side of colorful wooden toys.
