Dear E, Today you are ten months old! You weigh 19.4 pounds and you are 29 inches long. You have eight teeth, that we know of. You are also the VERY BEST BABY that we know of. This has been an exciting month: you are so proficient at your army crawl that you have no…

Baby Bits XIV
I fear I have created a monster. We’ve only been giving E Cheerios for a few weeks, but already he gets all antsy and whiny if he hasn’t had a hit in a while. You give him some and he just wants more. He now recognizes the Oscar the Grouch container we’ve been keeping them…
First Official Post in the NEW BLOG!!
That totally called for two exclamation points, don’t try to tell me different. Here we are! It’s dilovely, isn’t it? ????? I’d like to introduce you to my new blog. It’s running on an installation of WordPress, so that a non-web-savvy “Normal Gal” like me can still function within it. It’s hosted by Host Papa,…
Random News
As of yesterday, March 1st, 2010, two new teeth were noticeable in E’s mouth! Lower right outer incisor, upper left front (as it turns out, the first one he cut on the top was not right in front, but off to the side). Good story, eh? I am writing a big post about the Olympics,…
Taking the Elephant by the Tusks Before it's in the Room
Hello, dear readers, I apologize for my absence the last few days. I am in the process of a sea-blog-change. As the end of my maternity leave creeps closer, I am wishing more and more fervently that I could only go back to work part-time (or, since I’m wishing, how about not at all?). I…
Que nous puissions vieillir ensemble…
Lorsque tu seras vieux et que je serai vieille Lorsque mes cheveux blonds seront des cheveux blancs, Au mois de mai, dans le jardin qui s’ensoleille, Nous irons réchauffer nos vieux membres tremblants. Comme le renouveau mettra nos coeurs en fête, Nous nous croirons encore de jeunes amoureux; Et je te sourirai tout en branlant…
Random (some important, some not) Items
E is six months old today! He remains the cutest baby in the world. In fact, a guest at my first official “away” Pampered Chef party (chez ma soeur) said to me, “You have the cutest baby!” I told her I agree, but I’m biased, and she said, “Feel good thinking that! He really is…
Accomplishments
Remember how when you were a kid, certain things about being grown-up just seemed incredibly cool? Well, I don’t know if that’s true for everyone, but for me it was. There were many little things I really looked forward to achieving. Sometimes I like to remind myself of those things, because I’ve achieved so many…
Shiny Happy Homes
When I was a kid, I spent many hours making drawings of my “dream room”. Items were numbered, with a corresponding list below of the cool features, such as canopy bed with fort capabilities, large highly organized desk space with own computer and journals and art supplies galore, own telephone, own television, door to own…
Dilovely's Little List of Goals
I’m enjoying this. I enjoy that I don’t need preamble or continuity to write in my Bloggy Blog. No constraints on length or level of awesomeness. (When my sister started her blog and left for Europe, I discovered that my baby son gives big smiles when you say “Blogblogblogblogblog.”) What was my topic again? Oh…
