Glowbug Baby
Posted by Chad Orzel on November 9, 2011 How awesome is The Pip? So awesome he glows: OK, that’s really just a phototherapy light because he’s a little jaundiced (SteelyKid had the same thing when she was just born, though I don’t remember the light being brought to the room with her). It makes him look like he glows in the dark, though.…
Meet the Pip
Posted by Chad Orzel on November 7, 2011 As of 4:35 this morning, Chateau Steelypips has a new member (though not yet resident, for a couple more days): This photo, with the traditional sky-bison for scale is our new baby boy, David Nepveu Orzel, henceforth to be referred to on the blog as “The Pip.” Because “SteelyKid and The Pip” sounds like a…
Thursday Toddler Blogging 1103011
Posted by Chad Orzel on November 3, 2011 This weekend, we did a little more furniture-moving to prepare for the imminent arrival of FutureSibling!, which included moving SteelyKid’s black chair upstairs into her room, and putting the portable crib back in front of the fireplace in the living room. Unsurprisingly, she wanted to get in it; surprisingly, she allowed me to take a…
Thursday Terrified Parent Blogging 102711
Posted by Chad Orzel on October 27, 2011 A couple of cell-phone pictures from last weekend, on an early-evening run to one of the local playgrounds. The sun was pretty well down when SteelyKid decided she wanted to climb on the giant rope climbing structure they have. she’s gone on this before, but it’s never lasted long, so we figured, why not? (It’s…
Because 4% of the Energy Controls 100% of the Photons
Posted by Chad Orzel on October 26, 2011 “I work around the clock– 1043 Planck times per second– providing the gravitational attraction to hold this galaxy cluster together. And some baryonic cosmologist wants to explain me away as a modification of Newtonian gravity? “I have been silent for 13.7 billion years, but no more. “I AM THE 96%” (Original Pandora Cluster image from…
Thursday Toddler Blogging 102011
Posted by Chad Orzel on October 20, 2011 SteelyKid was in an exceptionally happy mood the other night, and so I not only got the silly face shot from the previous post, but also this more traditional Toddler Blogging picture, with Appa, no less: All together now: Awwwwwww…. Appa, you may or may not recall, has served as our standard length reference for…
Donors Choose Fundraiser: Double Your Impact
Posted by Chad Orzel on October 20, 2011 I’ve been too busy to really work on the DonorsChoose fundraiser this year, but it’s worth taking a little time to mention this opportunity: Starting today and running through Saturday midnight, the DonorsChoose board will match donations to the Science Bloggers for Students fundraiser. thus, a $5 donation becomes $10, $10 becomes $20, and, well,…
SteelyKid the Builder
Posted by Chad Orzel on October 15, 2011 Because it’s been a while since I posted a cute toddler picture, and because SteelyKid actually let me shoot some pictures of her yesterday for the first time in a while. Here she is, playing with Legos: Of course, building giant towers is only half the fun of playing with Legos:
Thursday Shana Tova Blogging 092911
Posted by Chad Orzel on September 29, 2011 The JCC, where SteelyKid goes to preschool, is closed for Rosh Hashanah, so she’s off at Grandma and Grandpa’s for the weekend. They start doing a little more religious instruction at the preschool level, so we got to hear about Jewish theology, SteelyKid style: It’s the birthday of the world, so I’m going to Grandma…
Thursday Sand Picture Blogging 091511
Posted by Chad Orzel on September 15, 2011 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.…
