solid as in, well, like a smoothie

today the peanut had his first "solid" food. this is sort of mostly true. i've let him gnaw on grapes before (holding onto them so he can taste the juice). but we opened an actual jar of actual baby food tonight and let him at it. i don't think either one of us realized that orange food presents different issue than breastmilk. carrots everywhere... including down the inside of MY shirt. but here we go.

he turns 6 months old in a couple weeks. where the hell does the time go???

decimate: i don't think that word means what you think it means

ok people, listen up. it's happening again, a lot lately. decimate does NOT mean to wipe out. it means to REDUCE BY 1/10TH. there are wayyyy to many people mis-using this who should know better.

looking forward to the teenage years...

i miss knitting. i miss a lot. i know when he's older i'll have to drag him out of bed.

i'm really not wishing away the little moments, but i do miss knitting. or anything requiring concentration which might be done before 10pm.

on the other hand, well. i have no idea. i'm tired today.
