'Trash'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
know they exist, and my own husband was among them, but it's harder for me to understand and picture,
The late talkers I've heard about who were very smart tended to wait until they could form whole sentences. Or just held back until they'd really mastered the language and felt confident in that.
Annabel strikes me as possibly being that kind of baby. No wait, that model would only work if one of her parents was a perfectionist.
The me who is still traumatized by the memory of waiting tables 15 years ago asks me to say, "this is different, how?"
BWAH! There are a good many pigs that are neater than some adults when they go out to dinner.
Annabel doesn't look thin to me, she looks like a toddler. She's grown legs.
She's actually thinner than that picture makes her look--she's a big-boned kid, so you notice the thinness more when she's naked and you can see what a svelte waist she's getting. But yeah, she's normal toddler in that regard--I asked the pede just to make sure I was feeding her right, and she said this is the age when they start acquiring their basic body types, which genetics for Annabel means tall and slim until she's 25 or so and has to start fighting her weight.
Thanks for the compliments--I think she's the most beautiful kid ever, especially WRT her eyes and her smile, but it's nice to hear it's not entirely my bias talking.
Pretty Annabelle!
We just got our first trick or treaters, which thrilled Sara to no end. "Kids!" Giving away the candy didn't go over as big, however.
We're eating pizza and then going out ourselves -- Ben had a fever all weekend, but it was only 99 this morning, so he went to school so as not to miss the parade and party. He's resting now, pre-trick or treating. It's one night a year -- even if it was higher, I'd let him go. And I'm actually thinking of keeping him home tomorrow and calling the doctor, because he gets strep at the drop of a hat.
I am smiling. You have witnessed one, your husband.Well, he was 24 when I met him, and he'd worked the verbal thing out by then. He even knew that the way to the literate girl's heart is to talk about the paper on Pride & Prejudice he wrote in high school. I wasn't there for the nonverbal till after his 2nd birthday part, so I'm all, "Not talking at ALL? Surely he must've been saying SOMETHING. I mean, if his grandmother is to be believed he was reading before he was 3."
Oooh, I love the porch on the second house, Maria. And homeowning! Wheeee!
Well, he was 24 when I met him, and he'd worked the verbal thing out by then.
As will Annabel.
Oh, Maria! They're quite lovely. How exciting!
Hey, it's my favorite cervix lady!
I'll give you a ride tonight. Plus I'll buy you a drink.
