alex is 5 months old

sometimes, i feel like things go by so slowly.

today, i feel things are going by fast.

perhaps it's because i only have about 6 weeks left (if i find a job) to spend with my favoritest baby.

*sigh*

sometimes i really hate breastfeeding. i thought i wouldn't do it again if i had another baby. but i've changed my mind back. i think she gets something more out of it that i can't really put into words. they say 'bonding,' but i'm going to call it comfort and trust, but even that doesn't adequately convey how connected i feel it has made us.

anyway, here are some pix:



















will and alex hang out















alex and the daddy















alex with godfather-to-be, druncle noj















chillin out with the baby frog... in the vibrating chair she probably won't get out of until she's 30.















"mmm fruit and cereal... but it makes me so sleepy!"

that's all we have for now, but i think this weekend will bring a bunch more pix since we are having a party of sorts. check back monday for more pix! (i know how cute my baby is, so i'm trying to stay on top of this. besides, weltek needs good reason to have one of her own. lol)

what happened?

i am so confused. i went to syren's blog today and saw she's pissed at cygnus. he commented something on her blog and it upset her. i feel what he said was weird, and kind of stupid, but didn't really think it warranted the onslaught of horrid response it received.

i'm guessing there's more to it that i don't know about. as it reads, there's hypocrisy. but giving benefit of the doubt makes me feel better about people i have typically respected for their open-mindedness not appearing so open-minded in this scenario.

baby pix to follow.

peep meet

hello there... we have no pix to post as we were too lazy to take any, but we met up with a bunch of OTers and if you check out THEIR blogs and such, you might see a cq and an alex. :)

we had a great time... wish we could've hung around more, but you know... drinking in a hotel room isn't really for babies. lol! we would've gone to the zoo, though! we didn't know about it! :( oh, well. we still got to meet up with everyone and that was great fun. i hope everyone had a good time and i look forward to the next peep meet!
