I'll push myself up through the dirt and shake my petals free
I'm resigned to being born and so resigned to bravery.

Sick day

Even though my mom sucks and won’t just chill out and let me enjoy my snot facial, I can’t stand to be more than a millimeter away from her when I’m sick.

I couldn’t sleep so she let me watch Inception with her and The Dad.

I woke up with snot all over my face, but feeling a bit better.

sick 3

I even had a bath and got dressed up. 

sick 4

I read my favorite book (thanks, Grandma).

sick 5

And practiced crawling.  I pretty much rock at crawling.

But it’s getting a little old, so I think I’m going to be exploring new modes of transport soon.

sick 5b

This is a new trick I’ve mastered… I’m pretty pleased with myself.

sick 6

Unfortunately, The Dad never lets me eat his computer cord, which is really my only desire in life.

So I settle for looking at touch-and-feel books.

Hey, just as a side note, it’s kind of cool that my mom and I both have peace pajamas, right?

I WANT those boogers in my hair, OKAY?

Dear Diary,

This week was sucktastic. First, I got some disgusting stomach virus from my mom. To repay her for the sucky gift, I puked all over and then filled the bathtub with diarrhea when the parentals tried to clean me. I have to admit I didn’t think that one through completely.

As though that weren’t enough,as soon as I got over several days of diaper drama, I got bronchitis and have turned into a mucous mass-production factory. I don't want to eat, and I can't sleep. The parentals are constantly trying to wipe snot off my nose, chin, eyes, and forehead and I HATE THAT SO BAD! Why can’t they just let me live my life?!?

Then this morning I woke up and found that three new teeth broke through my gums. In case you don’t remember, that hurts like crap. I can’t help trying to touch my new teeth all the time, but it sucks because then my snot flows straight into my open mouth. Sickest ever. And to top it all off, I seem to have the poops again.

Whatever.

2011 mayhem

To bring in the new year with a bang, we took a walk around Castle Island.  It was in the mid fifties, so we walked it twice.  I know, totally wild.

And because I’m my father’s daughter, I’ll add a completely unrelated (but noteworthy) photo at the end:

Happy new year!
