Spunky, motivated Hazel Ruth is nine months old! When I look at her, I am surprised to realize that she’s closer to toddlerhood now than she is babyhood. She’s getting so strong, dexterous, and capable…which means she can get into all sorts of new things.

Hudson’s birthday coincided with the epic Solar Eclipse 2017, a once-in-a-lifetime event that a two-year-old could never appreciate. In fact, I’m pretty sure he slept right through it (since the peak happened pretty close to nap time). Between eclipse viewing and birthday partying, it was a crazy, hectic, but very fun day that I’ll always remember.
