Hobson's Choice

this and that -- don't put coins in your woohoo

Dicta of the day: Keep coins away from your woo-hoo. Do not put keys in your nose.

Coins, a choking hazard? It is a grandmother's job to remind us that you really probably don't have to put everything through a toilet roll to make sure it's not a choking hazard. My other mother-in-law introduced her grandsons to popcorn and Matchbox cars at a young age. Meanwhile, Chris's mom is playing "grocery shopping" with real money.

The nap ritual the AAP doesn't want you to know about: At 1:30, we watch Bargain Hunt on BBC America (accompanied by Eleanor's protests that it's "Bargy" and not "Cash" -- i.e., Cash in the Attic). We do some puzzles. After they've taken their goods to auction, I put on the sleepytime music, we read a book and rock for about a minute and a half. Then Eleanor goes off to bed for an hour and a half.

Shhhh, don't tell her: Eleanor has been sleeping through the night again for about a week now.
