We've had a fun spring so far. In Amherst we all went out to Western Mass for a weekend. The girls stayed with Grandma Kathryn and Bill while Gwyneth and Matt got a date-night in Amherst. We made the most of it by eating or drinking at all of our favorite places.
In May, we visited David and Phyllis Eckelman in Virginia, where we celebrated Hazel's second birthday! Hard to believe it, but our baby is not so little anymore.
So, what's new?
- Hazel has quite a few words - she's learned her colors and modes of transportation. Her 'thank you' is adorable: "ank-u." Her most common multi-word phrase is "I don't want it." So, you know, good times. She's definitely a two-year-old: she changes her mind to our frustration constantly. She throws tantrums when she can't have what she wants, and she bickers with her sister over toys. She's also a great sleeper and a decent eater, super sweet and very goofy. She now sits on the potty regularly at daycare, and even goes sometimes!
- Iris is doing great as well. She's really into letters these days - can write most of them by herself and enjoys doing just that. I wish I could remember the things that come out of her mouth long enough to write them down - four year olds have no tact, and we crack up all the time over the conversations we have with her.
