      ( 2:43 PM ) Lostcheerio  
OH I forgot to say the cord bit came off yesterday morning. Dan threw it away. Good job Dan. I am always tempted to keep these disgusting little mementos. Umbilical cord stump, first tooth, first severed limb, etc. You know how it is.

Today we went shopping to Baby Depot and got a neato-keen swing that has a little upside down aquarium thingy overhead and makes ocean sounds (love those ocean sounds, Fisher Price, still ocean-y after all these years) and a baby bath tub thingy and a playmat that is EXACTLY the same thing as the playmat Benny had (red, white, black, with criss-cross beams and hangy thingies) before I gave that playmat away because I was never going to be pregnant again. So, while we did get a cooler, more technologically advanced, more aquarium-y swing that goes back and forth, forwards and back, and fries up bacon while singing whale lullabies (thus justifying the whole idea that if you give away your old baby things you get a chance to get cooler new ones later) we also bought exactly the same toy all over again, thus justifying the whole idea that we should have kept certain things. AH WELL. Hindsight is a beautiful girl baby, eh? So hey.

Today's dialogue with Benny:

Me: Do you want to hold Sadie?
Benny: No, I don't want to hold that girl baby.
Me: Why not?
Benny: That girl baby is going to give me a shock.

HAHAHA.
