Not because Mr. Beckham is a talented soccer player/underwear model.
And also not because he is married to Posh Spice.
He is jealous of David Beckham because mere days after the birth of his daughter, he is surfing.
You see, my husband barely saw the light of day when I was recovering from both of my C-sections. I think he went out of the house to possibly buy diapers and get me food.
Being rich does indeed have its privileges.
Last week I asked how you would feel about vacationing with extended family, and 53% of you categorized it as possibly pleasant. Which is technically indecisive because only 14% said it would be great. 31% are of the mindset that it would basically be akin to torture, and it’s good to have those that are brutally honest with themselves.
Today I’ve got a question for you that oddly enough, I’ve never asked on this parenting-centric blog.
As Ford introduces an inflatable seat belt for children, can a car that simply puts your kid in a bubble be far behind?
Forgive me, dear readers, as I deal with my own skyrocketing body temperature and a vomiting 16 month old.
And, in case you haven’t already seen it, (although you probably have) here is Tom Hanks as Pageant Dad.
A little beauty for your Sunday morning.
Vaccinate your kids already, will you?
For this study, I have to say, well duh.
More about early onset of puberty in girls, this time dad-related.
My object is method “wood for good” cleaner. Crap, it had to be something non-toxic, didn’t it?
Bratz dolls! They’re baaa-aaack!
Kermit and Vincent Price. Classic.
You will not be spared from Yo Gabba Gabba!
Well, it’s no surprise to me that we have quite the literary bunch here in the Manolosphere, as forty percent of you stated you prefer to read in your downtime. When you get downtime, that is, which doesn’t seem to be often enough, eh? The next most popular activity was watching television at sixteen percent, with just being somewhere alone followed closely at fourteen percent. A few of you were a bunch of greedikins, who wanted to be able to choose almost all of the activites on the list, which wasn’t going to happen. Ahem, yes, I’m talking to you.
As for today, how could I not ask about one of the most talked about television shows ever to hit the airwaves?
As I’ve mentioned before, my daughter has a lot of hair. So much hair that even at the tender age of six months, her hair must be contained at all times by a headband, else it falls in her eyes and hilarity definitely does not ensue. I don’t know if it is because I am used to taking care of longer hair, but I seem to be pretty good at wrangling my daughter’s unruly locks. When I am done with her, she looks somewhat like this:
Well, she doesn’t look exactly like Rachel McAdams, but her headband is appropriately placed, her hair is smooth, and she is happy.
My poor husband has yet to master the intricacies of the wh0le headband thing, and the other day when I came home from the grocery store, my poor daughter no longer looked like Ms. McAdams, but instead…
