Say no more. I'll give you a case of it. Though if you start consuming it en masse now, I bet Buster will never forgive me. Glad you're so well-equipped! Ramen I can manage, Beth! Say no more.

You'll be happy to know that Buster's nursery is already stocked with my safety earmuffs. I might need to get another pair for downstairs, if he turns out to be a shrieker. Feel free to give me some ramen. Or Kraft Mac n Cheese -- that's what got me through the first trimester!

A week ago, when our baby hit 3 weeks and The Colic Crying started: “OK, ear plugs/ear muffs are sheer brilliance.”

I continue to enjoy the baby posts and look forward to the next one. It’s nice to hear posts from the future.

Thank you.

Inspirational, fun and useful ;)

Wrist digital watch with a back light and WATER (and everything else watery) RESISTANCE worked great too.

And as Veda gets just a tad older – this camera: http://www.amazon.com/Olympus-Stylus-Digital-Camera-Optical/dp/B000LXXJ1I/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&s=photo&qid=1241200237&sr=1-11 might be helpful too – as it is water resistant and can be dropped from a high place without any damage to it or the owner ;)

Looking forward to your next post ;)

Good garden grapes, I had no idea. I felt bad enough over giving poor Veda a cold last week. Though one of her grandmas told me that it'll help bolster her immune system early on... let's hope that this little episode -- and an ample supply of antibacterial bandaids -- can help her stay one of the lucky ones. 6th disease?!

I was wondering when you'd next do some bloggy brilliance.<br /><br />Micah, who you know, gave me a frickin' case of Clif Bars before Simeon was born and couldn't see the brilliance of the gift at the time. It's sorta like the iPhone of food. You can consume a whole meal's worth of calories and protein with baby in tow. This is brilliant. I was wondering when you’d next do some bloggy brilliance.
