Owen's brand of dancing lies somewhere between finger-pointing disco and breakdancing.
We really need to capture it on video, but please enjoy this still in the meantime.

I love the Zuzu. Best cat ever.
She follows me around all day, licks my hand furiously in gratitude when I give her food/water/love, and sleeps nuzzled under the fold of my arm, head squashed into my neck, like a teddy bear.

	Chill cat is chill. Aw, look at that fuzzy belly. That's a beautiful cat. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Chill cat is right. We're lucky to have her around, considering the one-cat wrecking crew that is our other one... (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Was O. saying, "I see dead people"? ;) Cats fall asleep in the most uncomfortable-looking positions! I'd probably wake up with my neck hurting. Hee. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Cats are nutty. Zuzu sleeps stretched out on a bed of Legos on Owen's table. I don't get it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Those kitty pictures made me laugh. How wonderfully furry. Owen is growing up so much. It's been really amazing to see. I think it would be hilariously adorable to see him dance. I hope he does it someday when the camera's rolling. (Reply to this)

omg. how dare zuzu take the title of Best Cat Ever from Nicky?

'Cause Zuzu is totally winning it with that first photo. That is a cute pose that my cat has never done!

Damn, I have to go find my cat and arrange him into something photogenic. (What a coincidence: he's just three feet away, on the sofa... ;)

	why do you let your kid eat that garbage? (Reply to this)(Thread)

	banshee 2008-03-25 07:45 pm UTC (link)
	Seriously? Next time I'll take pictures when he's at home on an average night eating organic vegetables or fruit. It's a completely rare meal out. Wow. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	banshee 2008-03-25 07:51 pm UTC (link)
	No, wait - I'm not done. You know what he ate for lunch today? Organic cashew butter and homemade jam on whole wheat bread with a side of nothing-added applesauce, washed down with organic fucking soy milk. DO NOT assume ANYTHING about someone else's parenting based on one photograph. Does it make you feel better to make someone else feel shitty? Thanks a lot. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

What if a country had an obesity rate of 40%, skyrocketing rates of childhood onset diabetes, and absolutely no controls over the marketing of food to children, up to, and not excluding, showing television ads in classrooms?
And what if nobody said anything at all to anyone, like, you know, this is really bad for our children and for their own futures, because it wasn't socially acceptable in a particular culture to do so, so the problem just kept getting worse and worse.....imagine that.

I was just floored by that ignorant comment, wow, some people. Sorry, I can't resist, I gotta do this.

Just checking "her" journal, I find she has great eating habits and can't spell worth shit :-)

...from gagdoll's journal, very nutritious eh? She feeds her kid RAMEN noodles!!!

too much chocolate. I keep being reminded not to give una chocolate. and that it has caffine in it and she'll be up til 11. I think monday is a holiday here. in canda the day after every holiday is also a holiday. its the national revovery/hangover day. like boxing day and easter monday. it gives allowances to people who drink enough on easter. Im packing and making ramen noodles for dinner. seseme sauce makes all the differnce. Im thinking of getting a telivision for una too. I never had one and didnt want to put her in front of it all day but entertaining a kid all bloody day isnt easy. cable and dsl in toronto is cheap too. 50$ a month fot both from rogers.com. canadain too. happy easter, if you do that king of thing.

	Reading your journal over the years I know that that comment is insane. People have their opinions but they should keep them to themselves unless asked. ps. Zuzu is adorable!!! (Reply to this)

YAY johnny rockets!

That's our date night place. Me and the kid? We are totally down with the booth dancing and the craptastic, artery choking food. Guess we'll have to stop going there to make the Budweiser beer-drinking babe happy.

Definitely post a video of him dancing!

Better yet, post a video of him eating -- you know, you could justify yourself by doing a little 365 project, only it would have to be a 1095 Project, so you could post a photo of what O eats for EVERY MEAL.

yeah. That would satisfy the asshats of the world, wouldn't it?

	even though your blog doesn't really every aspect of your lifestyle, i can tell from seeing what i do that you are a wonderful mother, and a good caregiver to this lovely little boy. don't let the bitches get you down, and keep doing what you do. (Reply to this)

	heatherica 2008-03-27 02:08 am UTC (link)
	All three of these pictures are so great. :D Also, I read that ignorant comment(s) up there.. just wow. I don't understand some people's way of thinking at all. I don't blame you for being upset, because I sure as hell would be too if someone said something like that to me about Wes, but you really shouldn't have thought twice about something so stupid.
