And Who Said Television Wasn't Educational?

Teagan has learned two new words today: clue and bubble. Now, if you add her other words, blue and puppy, any parent will know exactly who is introducing my baby to the wonderful world of language. (Well, other than InfiniteWaitState, of course, who is diligently trying to teach her the words ninja, coup, and totalitarian regime.)

I have learned the secret, finally, of what exactly it was that replaced the little yellow pill as Mommy's little helper - and it's DVDs full of a inexplicably blue little dog. Sometimes singing vegetables work, too. But that song about the pirates who don't do anything tends to get stuck in your head.

Who needs valium when some guy named Joe is getting paid what I hope is very good money to sing about going to the toilet.

This Week Has Kind of Sucked...

...but on an up note, I now fit into a pair of pants I haven't been able to wear since getting pregnant.

Yay me!
