We're home after a super-extra-exhaustifying weekend in Pennsylvania. My mom is doing extremely well, considering.
We'll get biopsy results on Wednesday. Then we shall all breathe a big fat collective sigh of relief, because I think everything is going to be FINE.
(YOU HEAR THAT UNIVERSE? FINE. FIIIIINE. HOP TO IT.)
Right now, I must go sleep for a few dozen hundred hours, because the child, the gorgeous golden child light of our lives, did not sleep all weekend. AT ALL. NO SLEEP. He screamed instead. He screamed for so many hours that Jason and I were sent back in time to those horrific first days home with a newborn when we sang lullabies with the words baby baby baby why won't you fucking sleep already and then we walked into walls during the day in desperate hope of knocking ourselves into a nice blissful coma.
Also: Do not permit your in-laws to buy your child this toy. DO. NOT. Walls will not be enough. You will soon contemplate sticking the silverware into your ears.
Anyway. We're home. We're tired. But...honestly...
Even when it's bad, it's never that bad, you know?






You're right, everything is going to perfectly fine! Thinking tons of good thoughts for Mamalah.
Noah is still ridiculously handsome :)
Glad your mom is doing okay.
And: Awwww! Love the pictures.
Very glad to hear that your mom came through the surgery well, and I agree that the universe owes it to all of you for the biopsy results to be F-I-N-E!
Noah just gets cuter every day, even when he's not letting you guys sleep!
Thinking good thoughts about your mom, but evil thoughts about that freaking toy. Great photos! Love the bare piggies and shit-eating grin!
Glad all went as well as can be expected. Those are some rockin' Noah photos.
Very very cute photos. I like the apple prop.
Speedy recovery wishes to your mom.
Where did you get those pics taken? They are so cute! We just got done with picture hell at Pic people.
My daughter has that lion. She ADORES it! Try putting it on bedtime mode if it gets too annoying.
Shaking a warning finger at the universe regarding Mamalah's results...also marveling at the marvelousness of Noah.
OH MY GOSH...I so want a picture.
That's so great! And Noah's pictures are wonderful. I can't believe there was a time when you guys didn't have him.
The feet!
That is one CUTE boy! Soon you will learn that only toys with volume controls and on/off switches are allowed in your home. And even that won't be enough. My boys could play with a cotton ball loudly. So glad your mom's surgery went well.
Yes, the universe had better be listening. It was certainly listening when (I assume) you demanded the cutest baby boy EVER.
I love the pics! Especially the one on the bottom. He just looks so COOL. :)
I hope everything with your mom turns out a-ok. :)
love the pictures!! The crying must have something to do with that evil second tooth...
He is just so CUTE. Can't get over it. :)
Noah is so handsome..
He's totally Baby AEO!!! So very cute. :)
Glad your mom's surgery went well.
I'm thinking my brother is lucky they didn't have that roll & rhyme lion thing when my nephew was a baby.
I wuv the Noah. What a cute little stinker.
Also, I think a just punishment for not sleeping would be to send him and my Alison to a desert island and let them scream at each other until they fall into an exhausted sleep in their respective babyjails (playpens).
I've got my fingers and toes crossed for you mom in all her fine-ness. Cause, you know, she's FINE. Everything is FINE.
BABY TOES! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
So cute! My 1 year-old has the elephant...unfortunately, he loves it. Loooooves it. If we let him sleep with it we'd probably hear that darned thing singing all night long.
Yay!!!! Glad to hear that nanalah's surgery went well. Awesome attitude about the results and will be waiting patiently with you on Wed for results - the waiting, it sucks but if it brings good news we will all be rejoicing with you.
I love the midde pic on the top - he is such a cute little man.
I just have to turn the welling tide of remarks about your son's cuteness by saying, "YOU'RE CUTE, Amy! YOU ARE!"
There. Equal time, you know?
Oh, the pictures! The cuteness! I love it. He's adorable. I love the one with the blue background, where his little cute toes are right there in the middle of the shot.
I'm glad to hear everything with your mom went fine. I'm thinking of you guys as you find out biopsy results.
He's a total cutie patootie, but what I'm wondering is, how the hell did you manage to get a baby photo with no tears, drool or snot? Oh, and he looks just like the pic of you in the sidebar photo.
Big wishes for a full and speedy recovery for your Mom. I'm confidant everything will be just fine.
Sending wishes for a good report and speedy recovery to Nanalah.
The noisy toy thing? Yeah, maybe it could become a tub toy. Or the special toy we only play with at the home of whoever gave it to him so you can all fight for the silverware together.
Also, it goes without saying (but I'll say it anyway) Cute, CUte, CUTE baby.
I'm glad that your mom's surgery went well.
Here's to everything being fine...
(I won't even mention how cute Noah is because it's pretty darn obvious.)
I kind of want to print out a copy of Noah's picture and put it in MY wallet and pretend he's MY kid/nephew/whatever. Just to pretend that attractive people like that would exist in my family.
Happy vibes for your Mom!
best wishes and happy thoughts for your mom.
also, as the once & future non-parent, can I tell you that the cuteness of your spawn creates a small ache in my uterus. That is power right now (fortunately, I know that the cure is more trips to Disneyland).
Very very cute.
I'm so glad he's barefoot in those pictures. I hate adult feet, but his are just adorable.
I'm glad your mom's doing well!
He's all, "You can put props anywhere you want - in front of me, behind me - wherever! And I'll rock those props, but I sure as shootin' don't need them, because I brought the best prop of all: my FEET!"
Noah is the most handsome baby I have ever seen! And those feet! Adorable!
That's right, Universe! Move along, now! Nothing to see here! *whistles innocently whilst skipping along sidewalk with hands clasped behind back*
I just knew that the combined force of 78978907023 good vibe streams would have to do some good. Also, that baby is key-YOOT!
The last picture of Noah looks incredibly similar to the picture you have of yourself on the site as a child... ;-) He looks like you, which is a good thing, cuz mama... you're pretty sexy!
Glad to hear your mom is doing well.
The only really heart-felt prayers I ever prayed were when my daughter would not sleep (oh, and labor). I sang the song of prayer and apologized for not going to church.
Very catchy, however, not so effective.
oh my god! the toes! THE TOES.
Glad to hear everything is ok.
See you soon!
Mental note: must buy toy for sister-in-law.
I'm so glad to hear that your mom's doing well. And Noah has the cutest feet in the whole entire world.
Glad you're back. I'm sure the Universe will happily comply to your demand! (at least it better, or I will be helping you kick some serious butt!)
oooh, the wee little man!
prayers fer yer mum...
Baby toes
Are cute.
I am really loving that you chose such an adorable picket fence for your URBAN baby. :-)
the cuteness cannot be real! AHHHH!!!
(but is it just me, or are his tiny feet really big? I Don't have a babykins, so I could just be out of the know, but aren't his turtle feet, not so much baby turtle feet? But the toes, they are cute!)
So glad your mum is doing well. Hope you do get some good sleep and feel much better.
Those pictures of Noah are so adorable. He does just get cuter day by day.
Still sending good thoughts and prayers your way

My favorite is the one on the far right. He looks like a little CEO of a very high-powered firm making important decisions at his desk. On a farm.
PS.
Caption for the top 3 photos:
1 - "Mr Photographer, I find you somewhat disturbing. Please go away before I throw this randomly placed apple at your head."
2 - "Look at the toes people, succumb to the cuteness of the toes, resistance is futile, mwah ha haaa!"
3 - "And that concludes my lecture on the cuteness of me. Thank you all for coming. Refreshments of milk and rusks are available in the foyer at a reasonable price."
Tee hee. x
Photogenic little guy, isn't he? I guess he gets a lot of practice at home. ;)
Will be praying for your Mum, Amy. Everything'll be okay...because you said so, and you're the Queen of Everything.
