the cute just keeps coming...

Zzzzzzzz....

Meet the Fisher Price Aquarium Swing, aka Zoe's bed. She is a mover, this kid, and thinks sleeping in a bed that doesn't move is for the birds. I am successfully getting her to sleep one stretch in our bed per night, but the stars have to be aligned just right for that to come together. Unless she is in a deep, dead-to-the-world sleep, she'll wake up as soon as I put her down in bed and start flailing her arms and legs like she's ready to go to the races. You can imagine how well this goes over in the middle of the night. So, we're letting her sleep in the swing probably more than we should, but hell, she's sleeping. And we like sleeping around here.

Sick Mama

I have a cold. I have tissues stuck up both nostrils. I'm just hoping that Zoe doesn't catch this, as I don't think we can handle anything on top of the green, bloody poop. You thought I was going to stop talking about the poop, but you were wrong. You were very wrong.

Watching the SAG Awards...

Just chillin' out watching the red carpet arrivals and waiting to get in the tub.

In my little cap...

Today we took Zoe for her first walk, as it was 52 degrees out. She needed to wear her little cap!

Kick it!

If I am the only one in the world who thinks this leg kicking business is one of the cutest things around, then this is a world I don't want to live in. The hippie, whole-foods diapers (which look like they are constructed out of wadded up brown school paper towels) only make this better because of the sound they make. LOVE IT.

I'm Ready to Go Get the Mail...

...in my GIANT SNOWSUIT!

Dairy is in Everything!

We've been having some green mucous poop issues around here and one of the possible causes is a milk allergy...and because I absolutely refuse to stop breastfeeding, I have to stop eating food that contains milk protein to see if that is in fact the reason Zoe's poop looks like spinach and snot mixed together. Do you have ANY idea how many foods contain milk protein? The answer is A LOT. So I am basically living on rice chex at this point. I plan to use this against her when she's 16 and telling me how horrible I am. "I lived almost solely on RICE CHEX for you! RICE CHEX! You hear me??" Ah, I'm going to be such a good mom.
