The pink one is the “flying donkey” and the orange one is the “little giraffe”….you know, in case you thought you were looking at ponies

Whoa!

Tootsies at rest

Drawing with sidewalk chalk

Blue Lightning is obeying traffic rules

Changing a car’s colors with warm or icy water — technology these days!

Down below

And popped up

Such an independent slider these days! Even here on a double slide

For those who are interested in such things: this was the runner up for the official annual basket photo

Here’s another nice size-beside-basket one — an action shot from early morning

Hazel got a jump rope in her Easter basket

We went to a neighbor’s toddler egg hunt

Hazel reveled in every find — such fun!

Hazel moved her step stool to the far side of the door to our front room so she could see us through the window

Then Supey joined her and they pretended to be elephants (see Hazel’s long trunk?)

Hazel brought Grammy to the farm to see some lambs, especially the “born lamb”

Walking stick, check

Nature treasure to add to the nature boxes, check

Reuniting with the nest and eggs! Double check!

Feeling some “prickly moss”

Members of three generations sitting on three dinosaur eggs

When Mommy got up Buddy’s egg had to be warmed by hand

Happy woodland tot

Kermie accompanied Hazel’s rousing rendition of ABCs on the piano

Last chance to stomp around in snow (we hope)

It snowed nearly an inch last night so we scurried outside to enjoy it before the sun came up too high and melted it all away

Even Hazel was attuned to the incongruity of spring growth and snow

Since Hazel’s birthday we’ve added a couple of everyday must-dos:

Cutting with scissors

Stamping

What you can’t tell from these pictures is that these activities happen multiple times a day. What you can tell from the pajamas is that they also start early. Fun!
