A Lucky Wine Salesman

I was in a wine store yesterday, and I asked the salesman a question about a Riesling. From his long-winded answer, I got the impression that he liked to come across as very knowledgeable. Then he spyed Cole in the shopping cart and asked how old he was. I mentioned his age and said something about being tired. The man asked how often he wakes in the night and I told him. Then he raised his eyebrows and in his very knowledgeable tone informed me that at two to three months a baby should be sleeping six hour stretches, at least. This gentleman was very lucky I didn't do what I felt inclined to do with the bottle of Riesling on the counter between us. Instead I chuckled light-heartedly and said, "Heh. Tell HIM that." The man didn't understand. I could tell by the expression on his face that he felt he'd been helpful, perhaps even given me information that, once received, would afford me more sleep.

Cole's First Food

Cole was sitting in his Bumbo on the kitchen table while I did the dishes and Mark wrapped a gift. Cole loved playing with the tissue paper. At one point, I turned around and he was chewing and I wondered if he was just making chewing movements. Then Mark held up the tissue paper and saw a mouth-shaped hole lined with saliva. Hmmmmm. Perhaps he's ready for food.....
