Thoughts on Pooky’s Poo
Posted by May on November 29th, 2006Filed under: Parenthood, Pooky.
If you can’t stand talking about baby poo, you might not want to read this.
I remember reading in a few places that babies who are breastfed don’t have smelly poo. Well, when Pooky’s poo turned from that tarry, black substance that babies initially produce into the watery, yellow poo, it certainly wasn’t odorless. I thought [...]
Pooky’s Favorite Things
Posted by May on November 10th, 2006Filed under: Humor, Pooky.
Pooky has a tiny bin of toys right now filled with a cloth book, teething toy, mini Whoozit, a Skwish rattle, and a set of oversized plastic toy keys that make the most annoying movement-activated noises (without an off button).

9. Have your favorite food night (everyone in the kitchen laughing and making a mess).

Up until a few weeks ago, Pooky was exclusively breastfed. Well, she kinda still is, I suppose. We started her on some solids, but she has definitely been letting us know that she doesn’t like it. Actually, it wasn’t that bad in the beginning. She would play with the lovely, colorful spoon I bought for [...]
