Teething
Rex's first teeth are coming in! I felt one of his bottom teeth cut through a couple days ago. He's growing so fast. Teething's giving him a lot of pain, and I'm trying different things... frozen celery, infant Tylenol, teething rings, whiskey, etc. and I think it helps a little, but he still is pretty fussy. It's horrible when I hear him ( Read more... ) -
Embarrassing consumer rage
I never wanted to be the person yelling at someone behind a counter. EVER. Having worked retail myself, as well as in other misc. customer service/ food service capacities, I understood what it was like to be the target of someone's impotent rage.

Trying to hold on to a book, keep the baby latched on, trying to turn pages, etc.--I tried, I keep trying, but it's hard. So ( Read more... ) -
UCC

They openly accept gay people in their congregation, and before Prop.8 passed, they performed marriages for gay people too. Reason I bring this ( Read more... ) -
Rex laughs for the first time
I keep hearing this song in commercials, "Hey mambo, mambo italiano, hey mambo..." and I really like it. I feel like a big dork for liking it. It's so catchy and fun.
Speaking of fun, Rex laughed for the first time tonight! I was nuzzling his tummy and making silly noises and he started laughing! It was so amazing and adorable. I keep using ( Read more... )
