Oooh, I love the porch on the second house, Maria. And homeowning! Wheeee!
Spike's Bitches 27: I'm Embarrassed for Our Kind.
[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.
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.
Two things...
1. I suspect the parental worrying never stops. I FREAKED my parents out last night, and I just talked to my mom who said, "I guess the worrying about your kids never stops."
2. Survey count is at 451. This is so exciting! Although, I told Emily on Saturday, "This means I have to read them all, doesn't it?" :)
(Hoping Hec doesn't say that to all the girls. But then I get "This is bloody and violent and made me think of you." so whatever.)
David, what are you doing posting when you should be on a plane to Boston? To SFO with you! Toot sweet!
Also, *smooch*
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.

Pretty houses, Maria!
Oh, and to prove I can tell cute Annabel stories:
1. The other day she was having a snack in her highchair while I worked on dinner and checked on her every so often. I kept hearing her make this sort of "oooEEEooo" sound, starting low-pitched, going high, and dropping back down. I looked over and she was making her Teddy Grahams sort of fly up in the air before dropping them back down, to accompanying sound effects.
2. I keep several sweatshirts around the house to put on when it's chilly or to wear over my pajamas first thing in the morning. Most of them have some kind of lettering on them--a sports team, one of our alma maters, etc. Annabel LOVES the big letters. If you pick her up while wearing one, she'll point to them one by one (not in any particular order necessarily), with great happiness and enthusiasm. Naturally I oblige by pointing to each letter in turn and naming them for her, then saying what it spells, making it entirely possible that her early vocabulary, once she gets one, will feature M-A-R-I-N-E-R-S, P-E-N-N, and C-O-L-O-R-A-D-O.

Awwwww...How perfect that will be.
In more boring survey updates. It looks like about 300 of those respondents actually finished the survey. This also makes me quite pleased.
