Some loose ends...:-)

*We survived last Sunday's trip to the No Obama Zone. Mom only made one comment about how she loves Sarah Palin (hey, someone has to) and how we're all "just soooo unfaiiiirrrr to her" but that was tolerable. Save me from one of her rants any day of the week.

The wee one was her usual cute self, and stunned the grandparents with her growth. (They hadn't seen her since July, so...yeah. She's grown. Like two or three inches.)

*The wee one got her flu shot on Wednesday, in which we discovered a few things. 1) She likes trucks, and cars, and things with wheels, and giant legos. 2) She is not bothered at all by boys who have three inches and ten pounds on her and who won't let her play with THEIR truck and 3) She trusts everyone. As a parent, I know that means it's because she's never been hurt, and I know it can't last. And that makes me sad.

*She also got her first haircut yesterday. She looks like a toddler now, not my tiny baby. Oh, she's still small (though catching up pretty darned quickly) but you can see from looking at her that she's leaving her babyhood behind. I still haven't figured out how I feel about that--mostly, I'm happy she's growing, but I guess I wouldn't be a mom if I didn't miss the baby she'll never be again.

Wife, mom of a preemie, follower of the old ways, lover of anything Irish or Celtic, history buff, trivia nut, Star Trek and Ren Faire geek and costuming fiend. Offer me coffee or chocolate and world peace is assured. Or at least I'll try really hard. :) I also believe in deleting spam. So, to the person or persons who keep leaving me comments in Chinese (along with links to what I can clearly tell are Chinese porn sites) stop it. It's bad karma, to say nothing of being really, really rude.
