That story is funny because I didn't have to deal with it.  It's amazing how much less funny it is when you walk into the room and see your kid doing something like that.
I thought it was funny at the time too. I was standing in the room but the soda was spraying away from me. She just looked at me with that "WTF was that" look followed by the "I hope I'm not in trouble" one.
It never ceases to amaze me how expressive a baby's eyes can be.

It makes sense.  When you don't have much in the way of words, you have to use what you've got!  Of course, adults eyes are expressive too, but I think we put more effort into listening to their words.  That, and babies are cuter to look at. :p

Sweet. I hope you get whichever you have less of, so that you can keep the teams even.  ;)

I'm a notorious baby hater, and I find the antics of BG  Baby Valentine hilarious.

"Just what do you think the moon up in the sky is? Everyone sees that big, round shiny thing and thinks there must be something round up there, right? That's just silly. The truth is much more awesome than that. You can almost never see the real Moon, and its appearance is death to humans. You can only see the Moon when it's reflected in things. And the things it reflects in, like water or glass, can all be broken, right? Since the moon you see in the sky is just being reflected in the heavens, if you tear open the heavens it's easy to break it~"

She is so cute Meg. What did she have surgery for? I can really understand how stressful it is with my little one already having had 3 surgeries.

Having kids sounds terrifying, but damn, MiniMeg is adorable.
Which reminds me... are we supposed to know her name? It was probably mentioned somewhere, but if it was, I've forgotten it. So I'm still calling her MiniMeg.
It's all about vision and making reality conform to your vision. By dropping a fucking house on it.

She is so cute Meg. What did she have surgery for? I can really understand how stressful it is with my little one already having had 3 surgeries.

Ear tubes. Surgery was a breeze, it's the fact the tubes don't seem to be working that's a bigger stress :( She's not doing so hot on her hearing tests.

 :(

Here's to hoping that she gets better eventually. Would be a real shame if a cute little girl like that didn't have any childhood songs to remember.

That sucks. Best of luck with straitening that out. May mini-Meg (i really love that nickname) have all the good fortune she deserves and more.

I figure I'll post some pics of my little girl as well. I'll do them in a bit of a time line as well (warning those I put in spoilers may be a bit heart breaking) Whole thing in spoiler to not take up the thread, since I just can't seem to stop myself when gushing about her  ;)

A couple of months later (we had feeding issues keeping us there):

Right after checking into the hospital for heart surgery, also it was Valentine's day:

*eyes pop*

Yes, I confess, little children are my ultimate weakness.

If I were in a classic human shield situation, me with the guy and bad guy with a hostage, I'd shoot the bad guy after noting his stupidity.

If he used a puppy, I'd still shoot him.

But if he used a baby or a little child... Well, then I'd rely on my sidekick.
