How does he feel about cilantro?

See, this is like asking his opinion on oven cleaner. As a responsible parent, I have a duty to protect him from such things until his sense of self-preservation exceeds that of a rat infected with toxoplasmosis.

Forget cilantro, what are his views on the semi-colon?

I can report that he shows a thoroughly enthusiastic attitude towards all his colon-related activities; I feel confident concluding he would spurn the semi-colon as unacceptably half-assed. So to speak.

bt, very cute. Hope Wallaby isn't jealous.

This is in fact all part of her plan to ensure that when he wakes up at 3 am, I'm the one he calls for. The A-Team movie is coming out bang on schedule for her to love it when a plan comes together. And possibly to pity a fool.

My name is excellent for getting in early with the babies. Well, the last syllable, anyway. And, really, when they say it with such deliberation, the first syllable is totally there too. AND? They say it righter than the ee-dah people. Power to the one year olds.

There's an interesting point here, "Mama" means mother in completely unrelated languages the world over, and fathers commonly get something from the range of baba, papa, dada etc. These are, of course, commonly among the earliest baby babble. The world over, parents listen to their kids burbling and decide it's about them.

Oh, too cute! LOVE Ryan stories! It's so nice to see you so happy, bt!

Aww. I figured it was better to lead with the first word story than the tale of nappy leakage. Thanks everyone for the good wishes towards my focused-babbling baby boy.

Screw that, I'm teaching L to say ita's name first. Before I was just kinda going with it. Now I have a goal.

Because I already have a kiddified name in the family and no way can I get her to say my name first. So it's plan B. Or, plan i T a .

Screw that, I'm teaching L to say ita's name first.

Following that, her phone number. Because ita needs more random toddler calls....

I'm 1/3 of the way through module #1. There are 3 modules. My brain is numbing, and eyes not keeping open. O dear Jeeebus this is boring. I wonder if the elected officials have to go through this?

~ma for the Laga dad.

The nerves in the new part are still teenagers, into heavy metal and pain.

Ouch! Did they give you any idea how long until the nerves are all adult like?

Dada! Aw, both my boys called for their dad before me, and yet they still only wanted my breasts me most of the time. It wasn't too long before dad was go to guy for fun though.

Watching bt fall in love, get married, and produce the awesome Ryan is one of the loveliest chapters in the Buffista family history.

ION, have not read Bridget Jones. Then again, the haven't read list is very long.

Not sure if it was here or Natter where I read Frank was feeling the big ick. ~ma for quick relief.

Pringles and red wine seems to be dinner. Huh.

I'd forgotten about the Colin Firth obsession in Bridget Jones. The characters spend a lot of time swooning over Colin Firth, and usually watch the scene in Pride and Prejudice where he jumps in the lake and then has the wet shirt clinging to him whenever they need to be cheered up. And then when Bridget meets Mark, her first thought is that he looks just like Colin Firth. And in the movie, they cast Colin Firth as Mark.

WHY IS MY CHILD SINGING JUSTIN BIEBER???

Age-wise, she's exactly his target demographic.
