Today

Today I drew blood with the Snappi, a rubber device with plastic teeth that secures Cubby's diapers. This may be a new low in my long history of ridiculous self-injuries.

Today I found that my old, broken sandals, that have been sitting unworn in the dining room for a long time, have mold growing on them. That's disgusting.

Today it is supposed to get to 86 degrees with--you guessed it!--high humidity. And yet, today it is SEPTEMBER 24. What gives, Mama N.?

Today I had to delve deep into the drawer of not-quite-fitting and out-of-season Cubby clothes to find something that did not involve fleece or long pants.

Today Cubby is wearing a 12-month onesie that is almost too small and a pair of 18-month shorts that are a little too long.

Today Cubby is seven and a half months old, NOT 12 months and NOT 18 months. What gives, Cubby?

  8. That Cubby. When he grows up, you'll be able to say "He was big even when he was little!'
