Welcome to the world of baby swap meets
Does anybody remember the movie, Best in Show? It was a mockumentary about people involved in travelling around and showing dogs on a professional circuit.

Teeth and Huggies and all that kinda stuff
All I have the energy to say tonight is that I am very tired. So very tired. But not so tired that I cannot complete my reports. They shall be done… Oh and also that my good friends at Huggies mailed me another set of diapers. Organic cotton diapers. For a newborn baby. Oops…kinda like…

I say it is an irreversible transition because a few nights ago, I was trying to squeeze an extra few minutes of sleep into the night. Blonde Bear is waking at 5am…

The Twins’ Favourite Toys
A few years ago I sent an email, in a vain attempt at humour, out to a large group of my family and friends. I talked about how poor we were when I was a kid and how we had no toys to play with and how one Christmas if I had not woken up with…
