I'm currently in LA for a quick work trip to visit some of my customers, and I made it a point to take a few hours for an adventure in Venice after two days of back to back meetings. I was completely charmed by this area, and was so happy to sit on the beach in 60 degree weather knowing I'll be back in 20 degrees in a few short hours.

First Snow of the Season.
Hazel's 1st Birthday Party!
In things that are WAY overdue, blogging about Hazel's first birthday! We had a simple, backyard party on a beautiful September Saturday with family and a few close friends to celebrate one-year of life with Hazel Belle. It was a sweet evening, and just what I had hoped. The best part was how much she loved her cake... surprise, surprise! It was what 1st birthday dreams are made of!
Hazel Belle. 16 months.
Well, it's
be a hot minute since I did a little Hazel update, but she is just too much fun
at this stage to not get some of it down in writing. She keeps us laughing
constantly, and it's just a real joy to live life with her. We honestly get
excited when she wakes up in the morning - she is a true joy to us.
Development/Milestones: This has been such a fun stage
developmentally! She's learning SO many words, and making real connections. She
repeats one and two syllable words we say, and babbles seemingly full sentences
at us - it's so funny! She also knows some French words that she's picked up at
daycare. I'm loving seeing her be a complete sponge.
Eating: She's a pretty good eater,
and will try most things we give her. We were most surprised when she
DEVOURED broccoli recently, and she loves salmon and other types of fish.
We try to stay away from sweets, but on the special occasion when there are
sweets around, it's hilarious to watch her light up while eating!
Sleeping: She's still a great little sleeper. She's usually put down by 7:30 and wakes up at 7:00. We are SO grateful.
Likes and Demeanor: I think my favorite thing that's happening these days is witnessing how much she LOVES her blankie. She sleeps with it, drags it all around the house, and refers to it as "banky". It's all too cute for my blankie-loving heart. She also loves to read, and amazingly, is able to find a specific book off her shelf if we recite a few lines from it!
