Documenting the new things that Hazel does takes all the luck and patience of a wildlife photographer. You have to watch for hours and then have a camera at the ready to see a smile or a new expression and even then, it doesn’t always turn out right, in focus or worth watching. We got ourselves a new pocket video camera that we will try to keep charged and nearby to capture those adorable moments in as much definition as possible.
Despite not doing many terribly new or groundbreaking things, we are learning more a more about her. For example, we learned that she is 11 lbs 11 oz when the nurses at the pediatrician’s office happened to put her on the scale. They also let us in on the previously unknown fact that Hazel’s percentiles are 25th in head circumference, 75th in length, and 50th in weight. Fascinating.
All of this is meaningless if you can’t appreciate a little smiling and looking around. Here is a video, so you can.
