No pressure or anything
All that she wants
Is another baby
What a weekend! I need a weekend to get over the weekend! We had a fabulous eve of mother’s day celebration with our folks. Everyone saved up their calories expecting to indulge, and I ended up making a moderately healthy meal! The meal was a labor of love - I think I was shelling peas and fava beans (and peeling beets) for most of the day. But it was pretty darn tasty at the end.
The mothers had a fabulous opportunity to gang up on us about the unsuitability of claiming Bailey as a surrogate “grandbeing”. Honestly, my mother has no excuse - she’s got three fantastic grandsons. So what if there’s no granddaughter - greed is never a good thing… And yes, Kyle’s mother has a legitimate claim, but really now - claiming that a granddog just isn’t good enough??! Poor Bailey!
Sunday was a baby shower for my cousin Supriya and her husband Sridhar in the city. The little one’s due in a couple of weeks, and I’m very excited to have a new cousin around the area. No pressure there either. Although now we’re expecting a total of 3 new cousins this year. Seems like the next generation has decided that now is a good time to generate.
So, no pressure or anything. But, maybe Bailey does deserve a sibling after all… good thing the Milo Foundation just set up shop a few blocks away!

Yeah, my sister and I are the only family of this generation of cousins not to have provided yet… no pressure… none.
