That awkward moment when you smile at a neighbour on the street while you’re parking and you accidentally hit the car behind you.
That more awkward feeling when that car turns out to be your neighbour’s.

I don’t need a glass
Molly’s new favourite ways of drinking water (or at least getting water in the proximity of her mouth):
a) putting her hand in Klara’s water bowl then licking the water off the hand and
b) putting her water bottle in Klara’s water bowl and trying to drink from it.
I don’t need a spoon
I made a mistake when I served muesli to Molly this morning. She didn’t want me to feed her but she almost immediately gave up on the spoon, so she was eating milk with her fingers. It was highly inefficient but it lasted for a while because she’s quite stubborn and I’m not.
We switched to a banana after a while, but not soon enough.
A weekend sans baby
In bed relaxing with absolutely no chores or obligations for the next 48 hours. No baby, no dog. I’m about to do some sudoku puzzles just because I can.
A weekend away
Anyone drinking a third beer at 17.26 on a Sunday is a friend of mine.
Disgusting things I caught Klara eating

Girls just wanna have fun
What an insane evening! I just downed a full glass of warm cocoa and wrapped some of the Christmas gifts while watching TV!
First driving lesson
I had a missed call on my phone, but when I called the guy back, he said he couldn’t talk because he was in a driving lesson. And he’s not a driving instructor. I’m not sure he understands how driving actually works.
Lesson one: do not answer the phone when driving, especially if you’re still learning how to drive.
It’s nice when you find yourself entertaining
I was tidying up the kitchen with my back turned to Molly when I heard her laugh out loud. She was taking sips of water and spitting them back out.
I thought I probably shouldn’t encourage her to play with food but it did seem like a lot of fun so I was torn between telling her to stop and laughing along. I chose to smile with my back turned away from her. Until I decided that her happy, throaty laugh and that moment, in general, were too precious to miss just for a sake of discipline so I took out my camera and filmed it all.
