This song has been driving me nuts for the past few days. I’ve had “whatever bubbles bubbles up” in my head and couldn’t remember how it went. I finally got a chance to look it up. A classic 90’s one-hit-wonder and a bit of nostalgia for those who remember:

On the Games front in our house, unfortunately there’s not much happening. There’s some RTS action with timing naps and feedings, some Platformer action transferring from the pack-and-play to the changing table to the bed or rocker, and a little RPG action trying out this new “Daddy” class. Of course, it’s less of a class-based system and more of a skill-based one. If it were class-based, I’d start out at level 1 with a basic set of skills. As it stands, I’m starting at around 0% on each skill and developing them through use. I’m better with diapers and changing clothes, for sure, and I’m not bad with a bottle now.

As far as Gadgets go, we’ve got a ton, but we’ve only tried out a few. The mini-fridge we have in our bedroom upstairs has been great for storing milk for Eleanor and water and juice for Laura. The bottle warmer does the job quite well, but requires water, which is a pain in the middle of the night. We keep a cupful by it now instead of walking back and forth to the bathroom. The camera has been great, but sometimes has a problem focusing. It’s battery-hungry, too. We have yet to try out the new video camera. We might break it out today and tinker. The pack-and-play has been the best, though. It’s a portable crib/changing table that is the centerpiece of the temporary nursery in our bedroom.

The Goods are much of the same. Still sleeping when we can. The baby’s great during the day, but gets gassy at night, which keeps us up. It’s definitely an experience that I’ll look back on with fondness, but I’m ready for the terrible twos already ;) At least by that point you’ve got a good idea why she’s being fussy.
