Food
Oliver likes to eat. But unlike an adult, particularly an American adult, he does it on his own schedule and only when he is hungry. Sometimes that means he eats like a bird (birds actually eat a lot, so I’m not sure where that expression came from) and other moments have me worried that I’m inadvertently starving my son. Oliver has barely learned to feed himself, but he can shovel food into his mouth at a rate that is quite impressive. Tonight he had pasta, peas, butternut squash, chicken, and some applesauce as a chaser. Aside from the applesauce, Oliver was in charge of it all. Four months ago he was only on breast milk… How is time moving this quickly?
Perhaps, as I suggested to my friend Amanda (also a recent mother), there is some type of disturbance in the space-time continuum. A particular disturbance that must be localized around new parents.
Any physicists out there want to weigh in? If research hasn’t begun on this topic I think we should start immediately.

More evidence for this….I saw Peter Thorn(I can’t pronounce it so I won’t even attempt to spell his last name) today and I swear I saw him only days ago, but yet he didn’t even know I had a seven month old yet alone had been pregnant for 10 months before that. Where has the time gone? And if you find someone who can slow it down please send that person my way!
Who is Peter Thorn…? I’m working on the slowing down thing, but no luck yet!
