Another 8am #parentingfail. But the cute bandaid makes it ok.

She reads to us now. Enunciation is lacking but she makes up for it w strength of conviction.

You’re a parent when everyone else is heading out (in costume) and you’re heading home. I miss the old life.

I forgot that you always ask for dressing on the side outside of the city. Although at 10:15am the waiter greeted me w “can I get you a beer?” so you gotta respect their style here.

She plays so hard she literally works herself up into a sweat all day every day.

8am parenting fail: Eloise fell and jammed her tooth into her upper lip causing much crying and some blood. I won’t be able to survive many more of these, she needs to live in a padded bubble.

She’s already getting rides from older kids. Luckily I’m there to supervise.

Happy all-female spacewalk day! Incidentally, this is Eloise’s favorite toy at the library.

My view at dinner. Beautiful.

She thinks all toys are opportunities for deadlifts. She hoists them over her head and walks around like a WWF belt.

After all my worrying and fighting to feed her, this week a toddler passed by Elle and said “fat baby!”

One toy in each hand is no longer sufficient, she needs a third around her neck.

Apparently Eloise made this at the library. As she cannot speak a single word or clean her own butt I find that v suspicious.

The real reason for the cut footsies was revealed today. I caught my mom about to cut this one and when I told her it fit, just snugly, she said: “if it’s tight she won’t grow.” Hmmm.

Doesn’t matter how cute you think you are - white pants are not flattering.

She’s replaced the bow w a beanie in the hipster style. Cannot win.

Hehehehe. (And I see where Elle gets that massive forehead.)

This is what reading a magazine when you have a 10-month old is like.

Best part of this weekends wedding was the cake of cheese. I’m recreating this next time anyone comes over.

Congrats Rachel & Mark and thank you for an amazing wedding @rgreene97 !

I have found my last meal.

Due to a blowout in the park I became one of those parents who have kids parading around in public in only diapers. Ick.

It’s not just the perspective, that pasty is enormous. Can’t believe I accidentally am in one of the birthplaces of the meat pie, I should pilgrimage here regularly.

Instead of sleeping as she was supposed to in her car seat she pulled down the cover and tried to charm her way out. Needless to say, I was unmoved and she ultimately went back to bed.

Wait a sec while I lick all these library toys.

If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em: bought a bunch of baby bows on Etsy.

I give up. My kid will eat cat hair for all meals.

I worry about making her organic, fresh food and only putting the most natural creams on her skin meanwhile she is eating her books with all their poisonous inks/dyes.

I love my local wine store

This would explain why she’s always sick: licking on the jungle gym and wondering around NYC barefoot. My mom remembers that bow but not her socks?!

Hard to tell who is learning to count on their fingers here: the baby or my dad?

That annoying kid who sits in the front row and raises their hand for everything. (And WTF, she never pays attention to me like this.)
