connie, please tell us the phone call ended when you put your hand through the receiver and strangled the caller long-distance.

Did I mention they didn't bother to do a data backup before all this?

"OK, put us back the way we were and tell us how to do what we want."

"Hire Tasmanian devils to eat your face--no, wait, that was my fantasy, never mind."

He's the lead in Iron Man.

Fair enough.

Am so nervous. noah has a bunch of wires hanging off him and i dont like putting him down because this way i can feel him breathe.

I cant understand why we cant hook him up to the wireless router.

Sweetie, you're doing fine. The machines will ping if something goes wrong, although I definitely get the wanting to feel them breathe thing. Do what's most comfortable for you. Your comfy, he'll be comfy.

Okay, I'm on a conference call. I have it on speaker, with the mute button pressed (okay, so that's mostly so I can type without being noticed). Why is there someone BREATHING into the phone so that we all hear it?

What Aimee said.

Plus, I know you probably want to put him down at some point, but holding babies is good for them.

I was going to say something earlier about how we had to wake Ellie up when she was very small to feed her, but then I remembered that Noah is a big boy now!

Who would hire her at this point? Is she even insurable?

Maybe not this year, but if she could get her shit together maybe by the time she's 25!!

Note: I don't know why I'm so obsessed with the save-ability of La Lohan.

I love this idea. It's also making me laugh, possibly because I'm a little punchy.

It's usual to be nervous. At least, I think so. No matter the age of the kid, the first time I take care of them, I'm usually a wee bit hypersensitive to everything. It's partly getting to know them, what's normal, what's not and why are they making that face?!!!
