1. Yup, it's ten on wednesdays from here on out...
2. We have a cruiser, ladies and gentleman (dad, my only male reader I believe). We're pretty sure Charlie is going to go straight to walking. My mom documented it here. He now makes it around that corner and over to the other side. We have accessorized with lovely padded corners for the table. If only Pottery Barn made babyproofing accessories.
3. Charlie had his 10-month checkup today. He is a string bean - tall and skinny (only 21 pounds). I remind myself that he is 15 pounds more than he weighed when he was born. He also got blood taken today to test for anemia and his lead levels (especially important since we live in an old house). The nurse held him. I asked her who would hold me. He was a CHAMP.
(Like Charmer's face in the background?)
4. I am considering opening an etsy store with a very simple product. Stay tuned. I'm hopeful to launch it by 2013.
5. Meet my mommy friends (we all live within .2 miles of each other. The two to my left are my two next door neighbors).
6. I have bangs. I do not want bangs. Just like I had no control over all my hair falling out post-Charlie, apparently I have no control over how it grows back in.
7. We have gone on a walk five of the last five days. Charmer says, "I'm OK with this whole KID thing if it means a walk a day."
8. I called my mom the other night and asked her what she was doing. She was watching THE WEDDING, and I think was dismayed when I said, "What wedding?"
9. Have you heard this news story? Seriously?
10. I am behind on pretty much everything - e-mail; reading; and writing. Off to do something productive like read other people's blogs.
