My Dad will be 80 in 2019. My maternal grandmother would have been 118 (a bit beyond even her family's customary longevity), and I'm not quite sure about my paternal grandmother.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I don't know when my paternal grandparents were born. Babushka liked to maintain an air of mystery.
It's probably written down somewhere.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
We've started introducing fruits and vegetables to the little guy's diet. Bananas were a big hit, and I can safely say that the little guy likes carrots. :)

Today was just quiet enough that I caught up on yesterday's spillover, was able to respond to my email, and even had a moment to start researching dentists. I'm sure tomorrow will be a flood of problems, but hey.

Work was dead quiet today, which means tomorrow will likely be nuts. I have lots of questions out to folks and am stuck until I get responses.

Our wings are not tired.
My mom and dad were both born in 1921, Dad died 30 years ago, but mom has a shot at seeing the big 100 in 5-1/2 years. Seems like a long shot, but who'd have bet she'd be around at 94.
Awww, baby boy likes carrots.

Sweet, Sheryl! Bananas are great in that you can squish them up so easy. And I can still remember when I was eating an overripe pear and Franny grabbed it and started eating it out of my hand. She was maybe 7 months old or so and I was so clueless it hadn't even occurred to me that I could feed her something that didn't come in a wee jar.

Yay! We're starting food in two weeks or so. We started her on vitamin D drops last week, and she is so intrigued by their raspberry flavor. And she really really wants my teacup in the morning.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I have a friend who, with her first kid, had her feeding herself from the start. They would put her down on a tarp and give her a spear of avocado or cooked sweet potato or whatever and let her go for it! Needless to say, the second kid did not get that...
