Scola, please don't martyr yourself!

OK, I'll try not to, I guess.

That would be offal.

I lack the mental acuity to appreciate puns. I think this means that I should start snacking on your brains first.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And he can go forward! (D couldn't at first. Kept ending up stuck under the couch with only the top of his head sticking out.)

He's a charmer, Jess.

Because books.

Oh, Jess, the videos kill me. And he's all, "Why is Daddy WAY UP THERE, damn it?"

Baby gates are probably a go, yeah. Cutiehead.

OK, you know what I hate? When the "hotline" that's supposed to help me figure out this inscrutable government website keeps hanging up on me. I mean, seriously. WTF, government??

Yeah, all babies go backwards first - it's easier to push back with your arms than the other way around, I guess. Forward mobility is pretty exciting! And scary!

He's plenty slow still. You probably have a few days before the OMG emergency baby gate run - so plan ahead, and get them this weekend!

Speaking of baby-proofing, this article in the NYT cracked me up: [link] The people who had to remove their designer chairs with "razor-sharp edges" when they had a kid... what about before they had kids, when regular old klutzy people like me came to visit? Or do they only have graceful friends?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

OH! I've been meaning to say that I have drawer baby guards as well as stove knob baby guards if any b.org parents are in want of them. They were never used since mac was 5 and not a 2 year old.
