I'd like to thank the academy...

It's an honor just to be nominated.

This year, we saw exactly two films that were nominated for Academy Awards; Ratatouille and Juno. That ain't so bad for a first year with a kid, especially since both of them won something.

I'd like to thank the Lincoln Cinema for having Thursday 10 am "Mommy Matinees," Cranium for giving my husband a paternity leave, and Rhiannon for babysitting.

What's the big deal? These things taste terrible!

Hi Anonymous Sibling. The shirt is an Academy Award statue for "Best Baby" in the categories of eating and sleeping. She was the clear favorite for eating, but we were all surprised she took the sleeping award.

panicky interlude

This is not the promised "Magical Ponies" post. Apologies. Instead, this is the "You Negligent Monster" post. Because Kiddo is in a Japanese daycare, parents are asked to remove their shoes before coming in. No problem. I have a pair of loafers that I hate that I wear on pickup days so I can get in and out more quickly. Most days while I'm putting my shoes on, Yuki will run away from me and I will make noisy protestations and she will giggle and come back. Today, however, there was the running and the noisy protestations and the giggling and a splat. I guess she tripped ("running away" involves going around a corner where I can't see her) because she was crying and pulling herself up off the floor when I got to her. "No big deal" as she likes to say (she does, really, it's friggin' adorable). She had a little red line across the bridge of her nose but there was no blood. She asked for a Band Aid and I told her we'd get her one...
