Simone looks like she will grow up to becone either a labor lawyer or a knee-breaker for the mob. Truculent is the word I’m thinking of. But that’s okay because she doesn’t look all boring and clueless and drooly, like a girl from Tri Delt who had too many Jell-O shots.

I didn’t see your picture–I saw a hot naked woman–am I looking in the wrong place?

I know you said you didn’t want to talk about weight, but I just have to comment. People always talk about the “pregnancy” weight or the “baby” weight they can’t lose. Whatever. Losing the pregnancy weight was easy in comparison to the “working mom who has no time to eat well and is too exhausted to exercise” weight. I’ve been back to work just about a year and have packed on 30 lbs in that time!! WTF? Like being the mother of a toddler isn’t hard enough, now I look like a hippopotamus. Looks like it is time to forgo even more sleep and start exercising. Ugh!

[tap tap tap] Is this thing on? Hello? I was just thinking, “Dang, where is Alexa? Hasn’t it been, I dunno, like, A YEAR since she posted?” Alas, it’s only been a week. What does that say about my life that I think a week without one of your posts to entertain me feels like an eternity? Me thinks me may need a hobby…

So, with fall being here, do you have to sequester yourself in again to avoid RSV et. all? Or since Simone is older, are you safer? My son had RSV when he was 2 weeks old so I truly understand why going into hiding was needed last year. But I hope you can have a bit more of a life this winter.

Sorry Simone! My little one is “THE SADDEST BABY WITH THE CRUELEST MOTHER EVER”! My little girl is especially upset when I won’t let her hit me in the face and pull my hair. Whenever she does either of these things, I tell her not to hurt mama and set her down on the floor where she cries huge crocodile tears and lies prostrate with woe. You would think I had just doled out the wickedest punishment ever! She’s only 14 mos old so just think how much fun is ahead of me!! I think I’m going to have several jelly shots and the go in search of the book “Buddhism for Mothers”!!

Love the fortune…just got mine today, also from a local St Paul restaurant. Mine tells me that “An interesting sports opportunity is in your near future.” Wonder if they get their cookies from the same place :)

I feel your pain with the mood swings. My husband and I decided that living with a toddler is like living with a rapidly cycling manic-depressive. I poured my son’s milk into the WRONG sippy cup today. Oh, the horror!
