Mr. Poopypants

Tonight I heard a plaintive wail from Punkinhead's room, "Can I get some help?" And no, verbal as she increasingly is, it was not Punkinhead, but Buzzkill.

Apparently he was on the phone with a former co-worker, and since I was online, he had physical custody of the Punkinhead. He heard her "tooting" and then realized there was probably actually poop involved due to the smell. Man-style, he figured he could finish his phone call and then give her a change, but alas, when he glanced down poop was spilling out of the back of her pants onto his lap. This is one of the few days I had her in an actual top instead of a onesie, so the poop was free to escape.

Jump to the plaintive wail.....I give instructions on getting her hosed down and into clean clothes and then have the pleasure of telling him....."Go change your poopy pants!"

So much joy....

Does something smell fishy to you?

We took a little outing to the aquarium recently, meeting up with some other mommies and baby friends. Punkinhead was fantastically mesmerized by the shark and fish tanks you can walk under and I of course, was in terror of the birds in the "rain forest" portion. Why on earth is there an aviary at an aquarium? We were a little disappointed the outdoor penguin exhibit was closed, but we can go back later with Daddy/Buzzkill.

Additionally, thank you to Montana's auntie for remembering her camera or we'd have none of the great pictures to post!

The waterfall was very noisy and I liked it!

She loves that shark tank.......

Delish

Okay, so after watching American Idol tonight, I have one thing to say about the Aussie dude.............YUMMY!




He reminds me a little of Jeremy Sisto from Six Feet Under and now Law & Order. Speaking of which, I just need to comment on how happy I am to watch Mr. Sisto AND Jesse L. Martin on the screen together. It means I can combine the time I spend drooling over both of them.

First Playdate

Our Sunday school class is having a baby boom right now. It's really great to have a circle of friends with little girls in the same age range as Punkinhead. A couple of weeks ago, we went over to visit one of the newest cuties and her mom along with one of Punkinhead's oldest friends - we'll call her Montana - and Montana's mommy. Montana's mommy picked up delish Starbucks stuff and we all caught up while the babies got to know each other.

Combined DNA

So, one HotMommy plus one Buzzkill equals a beautiful Punkinhead. Does the math add up? She seems way more beautiful than the sum of our parts. Incidently, check out the Buddha belly on Baby Buzzkill in the middle photo. Don't you just want to poke it to see if he'll Pillsbury Doughboy giggle?

I think we've found a new "Old Blue Eyes"

Errr, maybe Young Blue Eyes? Anyway, I'm so glad she got Buzzkill's eye color. Please also note how successfully she's sitting up in her Bumbo seat. Go Punkinhead!

Our Comedy Central shows hosting team

As many of you know, our dog Stephen Colbert recently got her (yeah, yeah, we know about the gender mix-up. blame Buzzkill) dog. He's another terrier mix that a friend of a friend rescued and we've named him, what else? Jon Stewart. So check out the photos above for the required ahhing. Jon's the tiny, soon-to-be neutered male on the right and Stephen's the girl on the left. At least, the gender is right this time.
