Question: Will hiding in a cavern with stockpiled chocolate goods be any part of this plan?

Juliana, we're going to just keep trying. We'd like to just skip over the bottle if at all possible.

Our wings are not tired.

The boys went from breast to sippy cup. It was often messy, but they got the hang of it. It was so warm that I often gave them water in the sippy cup because they would sweat so much and I worried about dehydration.

So I've got this packing in my sinus, and the instructions say to avoid hot liquids to avoid dilating the blood vessels. Does that mean I can't have a hot dinner?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Maybe avoid soup? I dunno

Thanks, Laura. Tonight's bedtime did not go well. ltc was hysterical and refused to sleep or be comforted. So unlike her. Poor sick baby.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I remember in Arizona, mothers with young babies talked about starting infants on bottles with water early, even if you breast feed, to get them used to drinking water.

I hope that ltc and parents were able to get some sleep. I do remember the sleep deprivation days too well.

Now they say no water because it fills their tummies instead of milk.

She slept pretty well. Me nsm. Th damp weather is back and I have a sinus headache. I'm hoping a second cuppa will help.

Ann, that's a ferret.

As discussed on FB:

Late Friday afternoon, we learned that our big, sweet, sensitive orange kitty Seamus has cancer. Angiosarcoma, to be exact. It's a fast-moving cancer that can originate in the vital organs (very poor prognosis) or the skin (pretty good prognosis). Oddly, it isn't unusual in dogs, but it's very rare in cats.

The cancer cells were found in his skin, so I hope. But we'll know more at the appointment with the oncologist on Wednesday.

Seamus was one of the kidney donors when Teddy had his transplant in 2007. Seamus is 12, and I've been half-expecting kidney failure in the not-too-distant future. Not cancer.
