Agh!

There are few certanties with babies. With Andi we know that anything in her line of vision must immediately go in her mouth. Whether phisically possible or not, she will try to put whatever it is in her mouth, and if the object is too big, she covers it in drool. The other thing is that she freaks out over toothbrushes. Everytime I take her into the bathroom(she likes to stand on the counter spit at her reflection in the mirror) she tries with all her might to wriggle out of my arms and get mine or thads toothbrush. Yesterday during this event I realized that we actually had a baby toothbrush for her just waiting for a little chomper to come in. So I gave her the toothbrush and she would not put it in her mouth. The one object in the house that she is supposed to put in her mouth and she wouldn't do it!! She'd get close, then make a weird face and pull it away!


Oh! and my sister called me from Jersey last night with a disturbing situation. She was sitting with her employer and another lady and neither one of them knew what Newsies was! They had never heard of it! Fearing she might have slipped into some twisted alter uiverse she called to verify her sanity. I mean, who doesn't know what Newsies is!?!?! To shake off the bizarness I had to immediately turn on the soundtrack. What kind of Crazies live out on the east coast!? I'm still disturbed.

How did you grow up and miss the Newsies? That makes me sad for them...what kind of childhood can you really have without knowing every single song and dance from the greatest movie of all time? You sister needs to enlighten them right away!

First when i saw the toothbrush and AGH i thought she got the cleaning toothbrush or something... LUCKILY that is not the case... and no news of newsies?? They need to be punished!

True THAT! How unfortunate for them that they don't have videos of themselves singing and dancing to Newsies as children (or as grown men) to watch over and over again? How could you live with such a void in life?!?!

I have no idea how they have survived thus far. It's truly unfathomable. Luckily Kelsie bought the DVD today and will be bringin the joy of newsies to the Jersey retards tonight.
