A few minutes ago, Taryn looked up at me like a little pink burrito, sqinched up her face, and let out a pitiful, plaintive little wail.
Then she stopped and looked at me again.
When she saw I wasn't doing anything, she sqished up her face a little more, held her breath for a second, and let out a slightly more pitiful, plaintive wail.
Then she stopped and looked at me again.
Since I still didn't do anything, she squished up her face even more, held her breath for a second longer, and let out a third wail, while squeezing two of the dinkiest tears I have ever seen out of her little red-rimmed eyes.
I think she's testing me.
But then, maybe she's just testing out her power, to see how much of a reaction she can get from the outside world... whatever it is, it's damn adorable.

- I prefer wine over beer and martinis over wine. Love tattoos and plotting out my next one. I have two adorable mutts, a perpetually-purring older cat and six fish, five named "Nemo" by Kid 1. I don't know what I want to be when I grow up, so I quit going to school after my BA. I like cleaning but hate cooking, unless it involves wine, but I always prefer to be cooked for. Love my family, my small circle of friends, and my job. And I'm a blog stalker .... I can't help it. Too shy to post a comment, but I'm fascinated by people.

Hey. I just got caught up on your August blogs and pics; now, I feel better.
I know a lot of people see their kids in babies, but I swear to you that Taryn "favors" Julia when she was in her first six months... until Daddy's genes REALLY took over (but there's still some of me there~especially, like I've always said~on the inside, especially).
I can't think of any words you haven't already used to describe her, but then again, a mother knows...
It's good to hear that you'all are ironing out everything; it seems that reality really hits when a child enters the scene, so know that part is normal. And as unique as we all like to think we are, your roles as husband/wife and father/mother will unfold more and more with time; whether your relationship withstands this challenge will not necessarily be in either one of your control because fate has a way of defining those things, but the bond you share now will last a lifetime, regardless.
I am living and reliving through you vicariously, right now (and if I am repeating myself, I am sorry), so thank you for that.
And you go, girl, when it comes to those boobies: that's what they were put there for! Anyone else who gets to enjoy them is receiving a bonus.
I must move on to more mundane things to do on here, but thanks again for making my Saturday night very enjoyable~in a Lifetime Channel kind of way (or maybe WE~smile).
