The skill of sitting

It has been achieved!
It is cute. There is some­thing very cute about see­ing a lit­tle baby sit­ting. They look so much more likesmall peo­ple, not like blobs of juicy yummy fat rolling around on the floor.
He sits and look mat­ter of factly. Twirling his toes or just try­ing to pull them off their ankles. A bit […]

Still on the mall

I was con­tin­u­ing hav­ing pass­ing thoughts on the mall issue today. Just ran­dom thought. Flying. Bouncing in my head.

A few weeks ago we were brows­ing a book store and the girls chose a cook­ing book for kids as one of their pur­chases. The book got looked at and then found a suit­able place in a pile somewhere…until two days ago.
Ms.Fab wanted to cook us some­thing. She looked through, made her choice and a shopping […]

Anything, I tell ya!

There is a well spread belief that has its roots in American pro­pa­ganda — well, I am not sure about that last part, but I assume it is, as I have never heard it being used to such extent in any other cul­ture. I am also too lazy to check it out right now and […]
