My 13 Pounder
My baby is not fat. Maybe you are. Do you have body image issues? Maybe an eating disorder too? Please, don't give them to my daughter. She's only two months old and perfect just the way she is! No, she is not "storing for winter," or "packing it on," or "turning into a little chipmunk," or "filling out."
She also is not a "chunky monkey," or a "rotund little one," or a "fat baby."
Really people, is this all you can thing of to say? Yes, she has the adorable cheeks of a breastfed baby. And no, she doesn't wish to share!
How's this for size?
We went to our momma and baby group. It is supposed to be 0-3 months, but it seems that the oldest baby other than us is 5 weeks. Little Missy is already 9 weeks and she's about two times the size of the biggest baby in the group. She's also way calmer than any of them. There are ten mommas and 11 babies. They all cried and cried and my girl just sat there smiling and laughing. You go girl.
Only her snout, only the dog
All though she is not momma's little baby, she is still momma's littlest baby dog. And now, she's got a new big fan. Yup, though she's slightly nuts, or maybe because she's slightly nuts, Ruca now elicits big smiles from her baby sister. Only Ruca's snout made it into the shot, but the smile is clearly just for her!

Today we start mommy and me playgroup and this mommy is terrified. (Okay, okay, also slightly embarrassed and also a smudge excited). I know y'all are on the edge of your seats. Tune in tomorrow for the mom smut.

"She's Got an Invisible Ice Cream Cone"
This is what Chris said ad he brought the baby back to bed after a 5:41AM diaper change. Since finding her hand (right only), she's become rather obsessive. She's so addicted, in fact, that her chin is chapped from the constant drool that is smeared all over her face.
What's she doing? Well, she's got an invisible ice cream cone...
