SteelyKid was down in Boston at her grandmother’s for a few days, which was a nice break, but it’s always good to get home to Chateau SteelyKid: Notice the spiffy new grill in the right corner of the patio, Of course, when you’re out of town for a few days, all sorts of work piles… Continue reading Sunday Suburban Toddler Blogging

It Was Two Years Ago Today…
Happy second birthday, SteelyKid! That wasn’t taken on her birthday, but it’s one of my favorite early pictures of her. Now, of course, she looks like this:

I meant to take a picture of SteelyKid yesterday, before she left for Grammy’s, so we would have a Toddler Blogging shot for the week. Alas, I am a dope, so you will have to make do with this out-take from last week’s shots, in which SteelyKid shares her opinion of her father’s dodgy memory:… Continue reading Thursday Thbbppt Blogging
Tuesday Toddler Blogging
SteelyKid’s second birthday is Saturday, so we’re getting her a few things. Given the recent video I posted, one of her presents was really obvious: As you can tell, she’s inherited her father’s skillset. If the dunk picture doesn’t convince you, this picture of her ace ball-handling ought to:

I don’t know if Dijon the giraffe has made a Toddler Blogging appearance yet, but in case she hasn’t, here she is: SteelyKid is in the process of explaining that Dijon is her giraffe (“My graph!”). Which she is, being a gift from Aunt Erin and Aunt ‘Stasia. She’s a rather heavy knit giraffe, and… Continue reading Thursday Toddler Blogging 072910

As a bonus, this gives me the opportunity to do the dorkiest thing anyone has ever done with a cute-toddler… Continue reading Electron Spin for Toddlers

After a hard day of toddling, sometimes you just need to kick back on the couch with your sky-bison, and munch on a fruit strip: You know what I mean?
Backyard Fluid Dynamics

We’ve been doing weekly Baby Blogging (now Toddler Blogging) for a long time now– this is week 101– but it occurs to me that we’ve been shortchanging someone in all these pictures: Appa. He is, after all, a sky-bison, so it’s about time we got a picture of him in flight: SteelyKid says “I could… Continue reading Thursday Toddler Blogging 071510
Thursday 3D Toddler Blogging 070810
I got sufficiently engrossed in writing a ResearchBlogging post for tomorrow that I almost forgot today’s Toddler Blogging. To make up for it, though, today’s post is using those three-dimensional effects that are all the rage these days: Look out! There’s a ball coming right at you! What’s that? The 3D isn’t working? Are you… Continue reading Thursday 3D Toddler Blogging 070810
