And slept 8.5 hours last night. Then another 3! As soon as he can give me pedicures and tell me I’m the prettiest I’ll be the happiest mom (of a gay child) in the world.
Hurray!

Day 40
Posted in babies, daily on September 23, 2009 | 1 Comment »
So Walt’s been kicking around outside my uterus for 40 days now. When he first showed up, he kind of felt like a houseguest with whom I had nothing in common with. In fact, during the car ride home from the hospital, I told Ryan I felt I should be making awkward small talk with [...]
How We Spend Our Days
Posted in babies, daily on September 17, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
When not listening to the bathroom fan, Walt likes to dangle from my body, only to be interrupted to feed and, occassionally, scream for no reason.
Is it a Raisin or a Lifeline?

As I type this I’m holed up in our bedroom with Walt and the Newt while Ryan resorts to toxic chemicals in our kitchen sink. This isn’t really as dreadful as it seems as I have Ryan’s laptop and a bowl of soup. Also, a baby who is content with the constant feeding – so [...]
Day 8

Well, it’s day 8 of Walt’s life. The first few days were a bit of a steep learning curve with the interrupted sleep and feeding – so much feeding. But it seems we’ve almost got some sort of routine. He’s begun to sleep for 4 hour stretches at night. My mental health will be saved [...]
Trauma
Posted in babies, daily, hallmark's bread and butter, tagged Cottonelle, Labrador puppies on August 11, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
There’s been a new Cottonelle campaign that won’t go away. It features a white Labrador puppy that’s some sort of scientist/life guru? So, the first commercial that I found mildly disturbing was the one in which the puppy went to some type of spa and is soaking in a jacuzzi with purple flowers. At this [...]
Britney and Me

Well, if I leave the last post up for much longer I’ll really seem like a whine-y bitch. However, just to contradict myself I’ll complain just a little bit more. Earlier this week, when shopping for groceries, a woman asked me, “How many babies do [I] have in there?”
“Just one,” I answered.
“A big one,” she [...]
Complaining
Posted in babies, daily, tagged maternity swimwear, pre-eclampsia on June 29, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Urgh, frustrating day. After waking up at 7am this morning I found myself needing a 2 hour nap by 8am. I had to buy a maternity swimsuit. I’m doing what little I can to ward off pre-eclampsia in what was a normal and uncomplicated pregnancy. I’m worried that I’m not asking for enough help or [...]

While researching ways to keep my baby alive/learn how to care for one, I found this. This just made labour worthwhile.

Because I’ve been slacking in just about every area of my life, somehow in the last few weeks (or perhaps, months) I’ve been automatically signed out of my flickr account. I created the account in September and uploaded photos about half a dozen times. However because I didn’t log on for a really long time, [...]
