You guys, my mother just told me a great thing. My father doesn't read any more, but my mother still wants to sit and read sometimes, and finds him to be a pain during those times. But she remembered that he's gotten into looking at art at his various programs, and pulled out an art book they have, and he was totally into it! For 20 minutes! So that's good.

until we Ferberized him at 10 months
I read that as Febreezed too! What is Ferberizing? I'm trying to imagine and can't.

I think Ferber is a doctor who came up with a technique for getting babies into a regular sleep pattern. We did something similar with Ryan, following a book called Save Our Sleep. (Key similarity: put the baby in bed while he or she is still awake, and - to some extent at least - if they get upset, let them cry it out, with the goal of helping the baby learn how to soothe themselves instead of relying on their parents to do so.)
Jesse - is 20 minutes about the extent of his focus now?
Someone reassure me about the presidential election.
Yeah, but that's not reassuring me.
those are pretty good stats tho, no?
the trend?!?!? my god the trend!
Romney's not going to win. Because he can't carry Ohio after Obama saved the auto industry, and he can't carry Florida because Ryan pissed off the old people. Everything else is moot.
