Believe it or not, completely unrelated to the domain outsidecat, I got this awesome mother’s day card from GitHub.
Our logo is an octocat, and of it.

Gourmet chef

Making dinner last night. “Crab-stuffed grouper with polenta and spinach in a spicy cream sauce” sounds way better than “two frozen things from Trader Joes”, and yet they are the same.

Paying the extra $5 for three-day delivery = irrational love for Jason
Brushing teeth

Abby came to visit, and spent one glorious, shining day. 80 took to her right away, naturally. Between the two of them, the amount of effervescence and happy-go-luckiness is more than the state of Nevada.

80 was thrilled to find out Abby also brushes her teeth in the morning, and insisted on helping.
Early birds get the diner seats

80 and I are having an early breakfast out. I love breakfast, and one tiny upside to an early rising toddler is getting a prized seat at the Deluxe Town Diner.

You know you’re a toddler’s mom when you have to wash your hands (and arms) before going to the bathroom at a restaurant.
80 likes to clutch my arm with her crumby, sticky hands to get my attention so I can get her more food.

a. a concrete block
b. a hot air balloon
c. a muffuletta sandwich
The answer is c, a .

First hairs cut
Thursday, June 30th, 2011Another milestone our baby book makes us note: 80′s first haircut.
Before:
It wasn’t so much a haircut as a trimming of a few wispies in front of her eyes. I was hoping they’d grow long enough to sweep to the side (thus giving us the same haircut), but that never happened. They’re so thin and sparse that a barrette (which fits into the choking hazard category) slowly slides down her head.
After:
See how much more passive and docile she is with a haircut? It’s just like wild animals. Oh, you didn’t know that? Oh yeah, you just have to wrestle a fox down to the ground and give it a trim.
