Santa Baby

[judecorp]

I'm taking my kid to see Mall Santa today. Holy crap, I'm a MAMA!

Also, my kid is such a genius. You see, we got a used exersaucer from FreeCycle, and I went and bought switch-out parts for some of the parts that were chewed on by the previous owner. One of the things I replaced was a teether. But what does my kid like to chew on? The mirror! She is going to pull the frickin' thing off trying to get it to her mouth, instead of, you know, chewing on the one that bends to her mouth!

I need to bust out some holiday frillies for the aforementioned Santa visit. I wonder if she will cry and be traumatized. That's part of the fun, right?

Also, my kid has learned how to arch her back when she is ticked at you, and fake a cough. Oh yeah, she's going to be t-r-o-u-b-l-e.

I guess pitching a fit at the pedi's office works for something. Punk has a hip ultrasound tomorrow and an appointment with the chief of staff of the local Shriner's hospital on Monday morning.

So I'm letting some people I hardly know (don't know at all save teh internets) come and stay with us for about 5 days with their 1-year-old daughter. Slumber party fun, or axe murderer scary? Thank goodness for those FAA regs! ;) (But they have promised not to have sex in our guest bed, so they can't be TOO scary!) Bring on the four adults, two infants, three cats, one bathroom! YAY! I think it will be fun. We can ALL be up at 3am!

Your wee punk will NOT be confined by societal expectations, even as she is confined by the Exersaucer!

:D

So true. She is already a free spirit!

In my experience, people with kids=not scary. I've met some awesome people through the internet.
I've also gone and stayed with people I've only met online (parents only). It'll be fun.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

That's good to know. :) Besides, you're not scary! I would let you (and your kids) stay at my house!

You know I love you, right?

No sex. I promise.

weeeee!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Yay! No sex! But yes love!

The first two sentences of your post made me go "awww" quite audibly. I can't wait to see the pictures.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Your command is my wish. :)

Its so funny when they learn the fake cough.

When my godbaby was tiny we were holding his hand as we walked across a parking lot. A Shriner came running up to us and asked us to let him walk alone so he could watch him. He was soncern that Blake was turning his foot in when he walked. He did fine on his own. But the guy was really sweet about it. And my dad was a Shriner. I think a lot of them. Good luck

My dad was a Shriner, too. And my grandfather.
