Begin at the Beguine-ing...

A little late for the blogging train, but here we are.  On the Blog Express.  Along with all the other time-wasting schmucks.

Mostly this is for family.  

And yes.  

I make fun of all those little moms who start a blog and talk about how cute their little babies are and all the funny things their little babies say.  And here I am.  I'm weak!  And a hypocrite!  But mine will be different.  

I'm having a ridiculously difficult time trying to figure out what exactly to post FOR THE FIRST TIME.  So I'm going to post a little run-down of this past week.  Because I have pictures.  And everybody likes pictures.  Not words.  And I've already written too many.  (We're all really lame by the way).

Last Friday accomplishment:

As a new mother I am discovering just how small a window of time there is when it comes to what babies can and cannot get into by themselves.  I need to find another safe distraction for 'the kid' while I shower too.  Any suggestions?

Sunday:


Two words for you: Hack. Job.

Someone got their first hair cut.  Aw.  I know.  These things have to be documented.  I'm a sap at heart.  DON'T TELL ANYBODY!  I have video of it too but...I'm challenged.  I'll figure it out eventually.  And then the inundation will begin.

Monday:


the newest favorite past time....

....TOILET PAPER.

Those of you who've had children (or talented animals) won't need an explanation of this picture.

Tuesday (this one's for the big kids):

CHEESE!!!

'The Man' took me to a cheese making class in L.A.  

It was divine.  

It's cheese.  

Sunset magazine did a write-up for Andrew's Cheese shop back in June.  'The Man' surprised me with an evening of cheese-making frivolity.  Pretentious L.A. people aside, it was a blast.  Check out Andrew's Cheese shop here and look for the Mozzarella Madness calendar.  

And here is my little cheese baby I gave birth to:

Isn't she beautiful?  And she makes a great tomato and basil sandwich as well.  Toasted.  With a little olive oil.  

Now scram.
