Why I Made Hazel an Instagram Account
Okay, so first things first, if you follow my social you already know that I just made Hazel an Instagram account. For some of you, this might seem totally normal, but for me it’s a big deal! I never in a million years thought I would build an account for Hazel, but let me tell you why…
So, as you know, Hazel is a “quarantine baby,” meaning she was born and has since been in this crazy world that we call 2020. Her own grandparents weren’t even able to hold her for the first 4 weeks of her life. It was tough on our family and one way that we coped was to share photos, tidbits, and some of her “firsts” online. What started as posts for friends & family quickly caught the interest of other moms, dads, grandparents, and baby lovers. Hazel has been making people happy during a tough time and I think that’s the coolest thing.
Fast forward 7.5 months and WE JUST WENT INTO A NEW QUARANTINE here in California. It’s hard to believe, and if I think about it too long, I start to lose hope. So, I say let’s crank up the distractions! If Hazel can bring a little happy, a little cute (Okay, okay, a LOT of cute!), and maybe a smile to even one face a day… it’s worth it!
Mothering, parenting, quarantining – whatever it might be that you’re going through right now, there might be a little bit of something for you on Hazel’s new account. I love sharing all the things that Hazel loves – from the newborn products, to the cutest clothes, to the things we bought at 6 months, and even what helped her sleep. There are parenting tips and tricks (like how she started eating solid food) and lots more that I’ll continue linking to. We’re all in this together, and I hope that sharing what I’ve learned makes it easier for others.
And as always, your support of our little family means to the world to us. Seriously – THANK YOU! Okay, have to go change a diaper… thanks for reading and following. ?
Love this story! So much craziness this year. Your photos and updates about Hazel have been the light at the end of tunnel. I have smiled and laughed and this truly what we all need. Merry Christmas! Keep on sharing!
Hazel is the prettiest, most photogenic, adorable baby girl. Every time I see a new picture of her it makes my day! Thank you Jasmine and Brett for sharing that beautiful bundle of joy with us!
She does brighten all our days. Hopeful this will all end in a few months
I think it’s awesome. I wish I would have had it when my kids were born. What a great way to document their lives! Plus to reach new parents and share ideas of what works…cause it truly takes a village.
Thank you for sharing your sweet Hazel with us. It has been a nice to look forward to seeing her adventures in this crazy time.
Merry Christmas ?

Jasmine, as I have mentioned, your sharing Hazel with us has brought such joy in these very dark days of 2020. I loved watching her eat different foods. Not one frown tasting all the foods. Such a happy, happy baby. She makes me smile daily and that is a gift. Again,thank you and Brett for sharing. Only great parents can produce such a happy baby. Thank you both.
Thanks so much for sharing. Makes me happy! Hazel is beautiful!
