Dear Diary,

Not much new to report. Except! Edwin is 7 months old and is sitting up! Our bathroom is almost done and looks beautiful, and though we can't use the shower yet we CAN use the toilet. Also, not being able to use the shower has necessitated my taking nighttime baths, which turns out is rather luxurious. I sit in there and call out to the BHE periodically, "I'm almost done!" when I'm totally not almost done.

Here are a couple of Edwin pics, since I really have nothing funny or interesting to say.

Totally not feeling the wagon thing.


This is the face that our daycare provider calls "Muffin Man".


Helping with laundry.

My sweet baby biceps. Let me show you them.

Love, Fluffy

She's a Laaaaaaady

Dear Diary,

Can we talk about Kyra Sedgwick, and why she's prancing about in an orange juice commercial? And how the camera never focuses on her face quite long enough for you to be really sure it's her? (It is.)

If she's embarrassed about having to do orange juice commercials (as she should be), why doesn't she just go to Japan like everyone else? For example, Nicholas Cage.

Love,
Fluffy

Update

Dear Diary,

I have been at my parents' house in suburbia for nearly two weeks while our bathroom is under renovation. And to answer Cindy, yes, we did pick out new tile for the shower. But we loved the original 1930's subway tile so much, we just replaced it with new subway tile. Basically it will look the same, only less disgusting! And less likely to fall off. The subway tile covered the entire room, but we replaced it with wainscot in the interest of fiscal responsibility and maintenance. We really wanted to keep the original art deco bath/shower hardware, but our contractor said it had to go. I found something similar to the old stuff, for only $800! Um, no. So we chose something less vintage that will still look OK, I think. Here it is!

More later, gotta go feed the mad man. Who, by the way, eats his weight in solid food at daycare but will not eat one bite if I am here and instead grabs at my boobs. This may become problematic during his birthday parties.

Love,

Fluffy
