My favorite mommyblogger (although don't call her that in person, apparently she hates it), Dooce (AKA Heather Armstrong), will be in the PNW on Monday and Tuesday this week for book signings. Her new book, It Sucked, and then I Cried, which I sadly haven't read yet, is bound to be as hilarious and self-deprecatingly charming as her website is.

I would totally go, but...well, I swear, I'm not creepy stalkerish like that. Really I'm not. See, there WAS this one time in high school...but I've moved past that. But I think Heather would get it if I told her I loved her and wanted to have her babies.

SMALL BABY! MUST NOMNOMNOM
So on top of one of my best friends having her twins on my birthday last week, another of my best friends had her baby on Monday. I am SWIMMING in babies, people. Plus I've got another coworker due in May.
I got to see Tanner (singleton baby, not one of the twins) today. I swear, I have never held such a small baby. See, an average-sized baby is, well, pretty average for the size that I'm used to holding. Actually, the smallest baby I've ever held was about 7 pounds. Tanner was 6lb7oz at birth, and today, he was 5lb15oz. I could almost have held him in my hand.
He wasn't early or anything, their family I guess just happens to make small babies. OK, so I happen to make freakishly large babies. Which probably is at least part of the reason I'm in a lot of pain right now, THANK YOU ALEX AND EMMA FOR CARRYING WAAAAAY OUT FRONT AND PUTTING LOTS OF STRESS ON MY LOWER BACK.
Well, that and the fact that I'm ridiculously overweight and I carry it all around my middle, but this is America, and I have every right to blame someone else for my problems. Hell, the democrats want to make that America's slogan, don't they?
Ahem, sorry for that completely random political tidbit, I don't know where that came from.
Anyway, the only reason I had for posting this was that I held a completely tiny 5 lb tidbit today and all I wanted to do for the whole half hour I was there was dip him in ketchup and EAT HIM.
So very NOMMABLE.

Love This!
I really can't believe the kinds of things people will do to food. It almost makes me not want to eat cake.
Almost.

Websites I like
So when I do get some time to sit back and relax, these are the websites I visit for a good laugh or something to think about. Mostly just for a good laugh. Check 'em out.
A truly normal woman who has just about the funniest writing style I've ever read.amalah.com
This woman is becoming almost famous in her own right for simply "mommy blogging." I'm totally jealous but laugh my ass off just about every day. dooce.com
OMG, whatever the hell this is, I want to eat it, it's so cute.
NOM. icanhascheezburger.com
I use this to keep up with what those crazy kids are saying these days.
Have fun guessing which ones are mine! truemomconfessions.com
