Picture of the Day

I thought I'd throw up this new picture of the baby. I think she looks all knowing here, like she's up to something or she's plotting something against me. I can't explain it. Maybe I'm just being paranoid, but my child is smart, maybe a little...too smart.

I have to do this now before they get too big for me to toss around.

Tupperware Is More Fun Than Toys

My daughter's first birthday is right around the corner. I can't believe it's been almost a year already since she's arrived. I'm debating what to get her for her birthday. She mostly needs clothes, but I'm thinking I might get her a brand new, delux tupperware set, since her favorite thing in the world is playing with tupperware lids on the kitchen floor.

It was funny because we had a friend's baby over the other day, and he too went right for the tupperware dishes. What's it about tupperware that is like a giant baby magnet? I wish adults were like that, just have some friends over, and you all plop down in the middle of the kitchen floor, bust out the tupperware and go to town throwing lids around, putting smaller tupperware inside larger tupperware, oh the possibilities are endless.

Christmas Gifts Abound

Baby J.'s first Christmas consisted of a LOT of presents. I think she received more presents this Christmas than I have in my last 10 combined.

Despite ball poppers and mega blocks and bath toys galore, despite bongos and books and new teddy bears, despite stacking cups and board books and a pretty purple purse, despite toy phones and toy puppies and toys, toys, toys, she loved most of all the wrapping paper and the boxes. And yesterday, she was back in the kitchen playing with tupperware lids while her toys sat unused in another room.

Maybe next year I'll just wrap some empty boxes.

Oatmeal Disaster

For breakfast this morning, my daughter's quest was to make the biggest mess possible with her food. She managed to get oatmeal everywhere, all over her face, her clothes, her lap, the floor. It was an oatmeal disaster.

It's almost impossible to keep kids clean. Kids should come up with a mop and a sponge.
