Posted on January 30, 2011 by larva225

I’ve mentioned before that Stella has developed a rather prolonged poo cycle in which she typically will only poo once every 2-4 days.  Sometimes it’s shorter, sometimes it’s longer.  As one would imagine, the longer the interval between poos = … Continue reading →

Government issue

Posted on January 27, 2011 by larva225

Poor Stella has now officially had her first dealing with the insanity of government bureaucracy.  When she was born, the hospital assured us that they would put through all necessary paperwork to apply for her social security number.  Great!  And … Continue reading →

The Devil Wears Osh-Kosh

Posted on January 25, 2011 by larva225

I have a new favorite obsession: shopping for baby stuff.  I’ve never been a huge shopping kind of girl.  Maybe it’s because I never had a whole lot of money.  Maybe it’s because I can’t fathom paying $200+ for a … Continue reading →

Social distortion

Posted on January 25, 2011 by larva225

  To be honest, Will and I have always been somewhat antisocial.  We have typically isolated and just done our own things, content with our own company.  From time to time we’d get together with others and usually enjoy it … Continue reading →

The Pukey Little Puppy

Posted on January 21, 2011 by larva225

I’ve written plenty about milk.  The squirting boobs, the different kinds of milk vomit (thick and ropey vs. curds and whey), the wet t-shirts.  I have neglected one aspect of it, however.  The décor potential! We have this ceramic tile … Continue reading →

Goldilocks and the Two Bears

Posted on January 17, 2011 by larva225

We’ve celebrated yet another developmental milestone:  graduating to a new diaper size.  Stella had been sporting the 1-2 size (corresponding up to 15 pounds) for the longest time. Honestly, she was only in the newborn size for a few weeks … Continue reading →

There’s a year in my beer

Posted on January 15, 2011 by larva225

For some reason, I found myself inexplicably blue the past couple of days.  I have had the hardest time putting my finger on it, but I can only assume it is one of those “my life has changed completely” things.  … Continue reading →

Mercury rising

Posted on January 14, 2011 by larva225

Nightmère

Posted on January 11, 2011 by larva225

I’ve mentioned before the funny and sometimes alarming facial expressions that the baby makes when sleeping/dreaming.  We noticed that almost from day one.  Within the past few weeks, we’ve also noticed something that’s not so cute/funny.  She seems to be … Continue reading →

Green eggs and hamfist

Posted on January 10, 2011 by larva225

For my regular readers, you know I’ve gone on ad nauseum about the size of our little girl.  She’s robust.  However, Will and I have noticed something pretty funny about her.  When you observe your child, it’s fun to try … Continue reading →
