TC: I think it's so funny that Stephen and Marcel won the Quick Challenge and are the team captains. And Marcel -- with the SAFFRON foam! So. Funny.

Kat has me laughing. I need that. Since I'm typing on a laptop missing keys thanks to the Toddler From Hell. The people from HP kept asking me how I lost the keys.

My three year old gleefully ripped them off while I was trying to pee.

I now know why someone invented preschool. To save the lives of toddlers.

Full-time work or work full time.

ION, would somebody please tell the local young professionals for Obama outfit to stop calling themselves "Generation B.O."?

I'm glad there is a plan, ita.

I've read one of Lee Child's books, and I plan to read more.

Currently I am trying to convince myself that I should have something other than strawberries for dinner.

1. Baby pajamas. Seriously? All they do is sleep. They need special clothes for sleeping?

Heh. That's all newborns and preemies do.

As they get bigger you might want to put them into some of those display outfits, though frankly there's something to be said about long sleeved footie pajamas all day.

Yoiks! Cash, that scares me because that's my future. As bad as things seem right now, at least they aren't completely mobile.

The maternity wing is a locked unit at the hospital. It's to prevent baby theft, which makes sense. I'm really good about calling the NICU to get in but people always want to come in when all of the signs say, basically, that each group must call.

I often want to make a snide remark about the fact that I always call and there is exactly zero chance that anyone is snatching my kids because they come with durable medical equipment and by the time you get the vent, the oxygen machine, the infusers and all of the meds, you won't be able to wheel out my kids. So the locked ward-ness? More for the safety of the sausage babies that most those people are visiting and would want to protect.

Footie pjs are a pain in the ass, though. I try not to dress either of them in the footie ones because they have a pulse oximeter on one foot and get blood gases drawn from the other.

Frankly, I am in my pjs all day when I'm at home.

Kat, you crack me up.

When Lillian was little, she lived in plain white Onesies and occasionally jeans when I wanted to tell people her drag king name was Liam.

Footie PJs didn't enter into things much until it got cooler. They're too much of a pain for diaper changes, and I'm lazy.

Cooler is one of our default settings in SF. Though I expect it's similar to Seattle. But JZ and Matilda spend a fair amount of time waiting for public transit, hence outside.

And K earwormed me with "The Wheels on the Bus" which is making me contemplate putting my head in the oven.

Oh man, you guys are in for it. Whether the Wiggles exist when you have toddlers or not. Nothing is as funny as my bad-ass brother humming preschool themes and then grimacing when he catches himself.

wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round

Damnit, K.

I think newborn pjs are so that parents can differentiate day from night.

Hampden is throwing down again this weekend. I think I shall seek out sushi and HON babystuff.
