Something in the Water...

20 September 2006, 11:25

Lots of positive news this week! Our friends in Tokyo, let’s call them “Al” & “Yukiko” had a baby boy last Thursday. Also, breaking news that our cyberfriend Gleek also has a serious case of up-the-duffness. And my wonderful friend “J” is a finalist in the Darebin Music Feast songwriting contest this coming Sunday (snippet: did you know that the City of Darebin (incorporating Fairfield, Northcote, Thornbury & Preston) has the most songwriters per capita in Australia!)

Little lady
Oh, and we just happen to have the most gorgeous munchkin of a daughter. Biased? Moi??? She is up on all fours now, rocking back and forth in a vain attempt to crawl. Her sleeps have been mostly shitehausen, I’m hoping because she is on the brink of crawling (please, please, let it be so, it’s doing my head in) or is getting teeth. McG was 5.5 months and I was 6.5 months when we cut our first teeth, so Scout (at 8 months) hasn’t been following family tradition. In fact, we’re starting to wonder whether she even has teeth. Is there a market in infant dentures, I wonder???

  1. I wouldn’t worry too much about when the teeth emerge. We had to put up with about three months of drooling before the fangs made a showing. Does she chew on things vociferously? If you’ve lost the leg of one or two chairs then perhaps she is teething.

    You can bet that there is a market for infant dentures. Most likely in California, I suspect.

  2. yes, there does appear to be something in the water! here at least :) i feel like everyone around me is pregnant too!

    if she’s drooling a lot and gumming things then perhaps she’s teething but nothing’s showing. thankfully she’s not biting you yet!

  3. Yes, 20 % of us at work are preggers!
    It really is an epidemic.
    We must be feeling patriotic or something (snorting laugh).

  4. Hello! Loved reading your blog. I was searching for a weather report, and found your wet Shimoda story. Just experienced that myself last weekend. Cheers! I live in Ito, so if you want Izu news, check the blog or email me.
