Those of you who follow me on Twitter/ Facebook have been getting the occasional snippet of cute dialogue from SteelyKid over there. This one’s a little too long for breaking into 140-character blocks, so while I wait for her to come downstairs so we can make pancakes, a cute SteelyKid story: We play a surprising… Continue reading Cute Toddler Story

Thursday Sand Picture Blogging 091511
The current quasi-hiatus has the goal of preserving my sanity through reducing stress. Somewhat surprisingly, Thursday Toddler Blogging has actually been fairly stressful lately, because SteelyKid is mostly in a “no pictures” phase, which makes getting a usable shot of her a huge hassle. Which is why there was no toddler blogging photo last week.… Continue reading Thursday Sand Picture Blogging 091511

Thursday Baking Blogging 090111
Our next-door neighbors are awesomely nice, and helped Kate move all the breakable stuff in the back yard out of harm’s way before the big storm this past weekend (since I left town before it was clear that Albany would get hit). as a thank-you, Kate and SteelyKid baked cookies for them. But you don’t… Continue reading Thursday Baking Blogging 090111
Thursday Unclear on the Concept Blogging 082511
SteelyKid has recently discovered the game hide-and-seek. Shhh! She’s hiding right now. Can you guess where she is? You can’t tell from the picture, of course, but just in case it wasn’t obvious where she’s hiding, she usually calls out when you get kind of close. Or even jumps out of her hiding place yelling… Continue reading Thursday Unclear on the Concept Blogging 082511
Thursday Balance Blogging
For this week’s Toddler Blogging, here’s a dad’s eye view of one of today’s playground activities: walking the 4×4 border on the sand playground as if it was a balance beam. She doesn’t actually need to hold my hand to walk this, but it makes her happier. I snapped that with my phone, expecting her… Continue reading Thursday Balance Blogging

It was another “no pictures” day today, so this shot is from earlier in the week, when SteelyKid got some birthday presents from my Aunt Norma and Uncle Dan: This shows her playing with the I Spy Preschool Game, which involves matching cards containing pictures of complicated collections of objects with other cards containing objects… Continue reading Thursday Future Physicist Blogging 081111
MythBusters to the Rescue (We Hope)
SteelyKid has used a pacifier from very shortly after she was born. We’ve been slowly working her off it– she’s stopped taking it to day care, or using it other than at bedtime or in the car– but she’s resisted giving it up entirely. since she’s now a great big three-year old, we decided it… Continue reading MythBusters to the Rescue (We Hope)
You Say It’s Your Birthday…

Thursday Taller Blogging 080411
As she never tires of telling us, SteelyKid keeps getting bigger and bigger. How big? She can touch the ceiling! OK, she has to be on my shoulders to do it, but the distance between her head and the ceiling has gotten really small. She’s huge! the picture above was taken by Kate standing a… Continue reading Thursday Taller Blogging 080411
