I went to go visit the cutest little baby on the Upper West Side of NYC. I would show you a picture but his parents are normal, private people that don’t need to Facebook, Twitter and Instagram every waking moment of their new baby’s life. Instead they are living in the moment and off the social grid. Freaks.
Look at these books I found for the babe. Forget “Goodnight Moon” – cool babies read these…
I went with the fish tale…
They also had Romeo and Juliet…but that’s just crazy.

On October 25, 2003, I had planned on waking up and going pumpkin picking with my little girl.
Instead we welcomed a little pumpkin of our own.
You’ll be shocked to know that he was just perfect.
He slept for most of his first year of life. Went in at 7pm and woke up sometimes at 8am (no joke).
When he was awake he just stared at you with that face. And those eyes. It was killer. Still is.
Then the hyper speed went into effect.
He grew and grew and grew. Notice the curls. The perfect, insane curls.
And grew
Cut to today.
Cake for breakfast with a 9-year-old silly, funny, happy but sleepy boy. Two seconds after this picture was taken, and right before he blew out this candle, he lifted his leg and farted. True story.

I need to do one more post about my baby starting high school.
It has to happen. Indulge me. I need it. Because I think I’m going to break down.
She was just born – yesterday. I remember it very clearly, and I have an awful memory, trust me – I don’t remember what happened this past weekend.
She was a week early. We were living in New York City in a one bedroom walk-up. My husband was on the couch – because we’d just had a great, big fight and i had kicked him out of bed. I don’t remember what the argument was about but I’m sure I was right. I went into labor at 5am.
We hopped a cab to the hospital – my water broke around 82nd street. I’m sure worse things have happened in a cab. We tipped him well.
Then it’s a blur – involving a revolving epidural and some really great nurses.
And at 9:00 on the dot – she was there. Botoxed lips and all. And then everything started on fast forward…
And today – she’s off to high school – 9th grade – 4 years away from college…gulp. Maybe she won’t go to college, maybe she’ll stay with me forever? Pray for that.
I’m proud, I’m happy, I’m sad, I’m proud.
If I could will the universe to make things good for her I would – but she doesn’t need it. I need it. I need it bad.
Thank god I still have my 10 foot tall baby boy.
