One of the great things about two year olds is that they don’t yet realize that Mommy and Daddy dress you like a geek because they think it’s funny.
Barry’s BlueSky- Untitled May 2, 2024I love that Caterpillar boots were among the returned items, and in this photo an Amazon worker took, you can clearly see the "CAT" logo near the cat. Cat climbed into Amazon return box, found alive 630 miles away wapo.st/3JJ3vqT

- Untitled April 30, 2024Nothing against Brian, who of course needs and should make a living. But I'm increasingly frustrated by the Substackization of blogging/news writing. To read Brian's work I have to subscribe, which at the lowest price level is $75 a year. [contains quote post or other embedded content]
- Untitled April 30, 2024Cartoonists and illustrators: Watch out for this scam (it's been going around for a while, but I only heard about it recently). Person emails you wanting to commission a bunch of illustrations to go with a presentation. Pretty high offer. At the end, they mention they want to pay you by check.

OMG, I am so glad my parents didn’t have the internet.
PS. Keep the baby away from the cuisinart.
If she were any sweeter she’d be made of sugar.
And I would totally love a hat like that.
Seriously, Amp, you are going to be paying for the therapy bills.
Who made the poncho? (Her sister needs a matching one. )
Dude! I want an outfit like that! I love the plaid cuffs! And the poncho! And the hat!
I wouldn’t necessarily wear them all at the same time, though…
Come on Jakobpumkt. That yarn has just got to be Red Heart. Spend the $7, buy some, and crochet yourself one in less than an hour!
oh my, what a cutie! I can’t wait to become a grandma! (Not that there’s anything happening with my kids just yet…)
Yikes. My kid has the same pants as Sydney.
However, she comes up with her creative outfits on her own:
pink and purple striped touque, red/green flowered gardening gloves, hot-pink pants, red rubber rainboots, blue flowered sunglasses and neon green tank top (it was summer) topped with a bright red dress with black and white cows.
I think my daughter has that exact same hat and she wears hers with a purple crocheted poncho. Seriously though, she’s a real cutie pie. :)
Are you kidding, lucia? Do you have any idea how much knitting I have to do between now and christmas? Things for me will have to wait until the new year, when my hands have recovered and my yarn budget is a little healthier.
Looks like pretty standard little girl stuff to me, not geeky at all . . . just you wait until Sydney looks at her parents with her big eyes and says, “this is how I LIKE to dress. I LIKE pink.” She really is adorable.
Geeky? What are you talking about? That’s *awesome.* I would wear that.
I don’t think Sydney’s parents will mind at all if she likes pink. :-) Sydney actually has a range of stereotypically male and female preferences; she likes blocks and she likes my little pony, she likes dangerious-looking climbing and she likes pretty dresses.
And yes, she’s adorable. :-)
