Pickle Me This

May 31, 2009

What life has been like lately…

I’d post a picture of me and the baby, but as I’ve ceased to wear clothes, I’ve got none that are presentable. Harriet doesn’t wear clothes either, but she pulls it off much better. We’re now inhabiting a Harriet-centric universe, and we like it here. She’s fitting into the family very well, and we’re working hard to get her fatter. Her daddy is so wonderful to both of us, it makes me cry. She looks so much like him that it’s a bit startling, and she’s so beautiful that we can’t stop talking about it. We also can’t stop singing her “Ignition Remix” by R. Kelly, which may have a detrimental effect in years to come. But regardless, I continue to be a very lucky lady.

Psst: Harriet is after the spy, of course. I’ll be writing more about that later.

    She’s gorgeous! Harriet the Spy was one of my childhood favourites and I wondered if there was a connection. I look forward to hearing more about that!

  2. Rona Maynard says:

    What a darling baby! And lucky in her name–she won’t be one of five Harriets wherever she goes. Happiness to the three of you.

  3. Rebecca Rosenblum says:

    Gorgeous. Can’t wait to hear more about your new, clothing-optional, built-for-three lifestyle!

    Of course you named her after Harriet the Spy! What a fantastic name. Can’t wait to see more photos.

    After Harriet the Spy? Oh, I can’t wait to hear more about this. Glad that everyone is doing well.

  6. Melanie says:

    What a gorgeous baby! And lucky to have a literary name — I agree with Rona, it will nice for her not to be one of many everywhere she goes.

    What a beautiful sleeping baby! And her sweet little hands and that cute little nose. Congratulations and am so glad that all turned out so well, for both you and for Harriet.

    She IS beautiful. And she looks lovely and big. Can so relate to the not-wearing-clothes thing. I have always been incredibly modest but basically went topless at home and even in the hospital during our frequent visits. I was too tired to care! Hope you guys are getting rest…
