Yes, so he slept. Huzzah! Hey so guess what? Last night I made an impressive 35 bean soup from scratch. It was awesome. Carrots, celery, garlic, onion, tomato, tri-color peppers... Why do i tell you this? To distract from the paltry meal I am about to serve my man unit who is recently arrived home and currently reading a novel and waiting patiently for his frozen delights.
You want to know more about what I ingested today? OK, fine. I blogged about my breakfast here on this dumb blog.
Got to go -- we are going to watch The Wire for the first time ever. Ya, my brother got it for us for Christmas (Jews celebrating x-mas? Check!) and we've still yet to watch it. Are any of you big fans? Lemme know (no spoilers!). Finnegan's mom was wearing a sex-hay black and silver Wire T-Shirt tonight and it reminded me that I wanna see it already and that I shouldn't work all night every night.
So I'm not gonna. Later Interpals!
xoxo,
Susie
PS Stay tuned for new and vintage photos coming soon, plus big work news plus me finally nailing down a date to go to LA and see my brother's spawn!
Hugo naps at noon. By 12:05 he's a zombie and he's usually out by 12:06. He's trained like a seal is all. Anyway, this video shows off the highlights of his nursery as he's drifting off. I don't know if it takes a village to raise a child, but it does take one to trick out a babe's room this nicely.
By the way, Steve, whose painting is currently on perma loan to Hugo, is an amazing illustrator (you probably see his work if you watch the commercials during recent Yankees games) who also has a daily sketch blog that s not to be missed. Check out sketchoftheday.blogspot.com. Also Pikey is an award-winning quilter, just a tad of evidence of this can be seen here. Not to sound "wet" as my Brit would say, but we are really lucky to know such talented artists and have them as family. Yes, boring sincerity -- deal with it!
Oh and the even crib itself is a hand-me-down from my photographer pal Shana. Plus with fabulous baby clothes flying at us from every direction, I think the only thing we've had to buy Hugo has been food. Ya, I feel very lucky.
See you soon Internet comrades,
Mwah!
