You get Baby Blogging early today, because I have a ton of grading to finish today, and don't have time for bloggy things. This week, SteelyKid shows off two new-ish skills:
She can stand up, and she's strong enough to lift a bison! Look out, world...
If you're clicking through to warn us that allowing her to stand up in the Pack and Play is a sure route to Instant Death!!!!1!, please don't.
Well, honestly, I don't see how you can *stop* her from standing up in the Pack & Play at this point, and those things are pretty stable - she probably won't be able to rock hard enough to tip it over until she's over 18 months. By that time, she'll be wanting to walk around and probably won't tolerate being left in it anymore in any case.
Death!!!1!!one might not be avoided. SteelyKid looks like she's sending Apa out to round up a rescue squad. How can you be sure that a SkyBison won't come back with the plushy equivalent of a drunken biker gang?
There's an idea for a new line from Gund: The AntiSocial Animals: a rabid wolverine, a starving grizzly, a coyote strung out on PCP, and a skunk with an anxiety disorder.
'K, now it's time to start the training. Each week, get an Apa that is a bit bigger and a bit heavier. Make sure she lifts it above her head. By the time she's 16, she'll be able to bench press a *live bison*, and you'll be rich from managing her bison-pressing career.
Cute, as always.
At about that age, my second son could leap from a Pack and Play in the time it took to walk down the hall from the guest room. It was very annoying. But I didn't know it would cause instant death -- does this mean that he's a zombie now? His classmates will be very pleased.
