The weekend in Pittsburgh was good. I think Gideon has now met every immediate relative on my side. I'm not sure if he caught a cold or if it's allergies to the pollen, but he has a runny nose. So in addition to pee, poop and puke, I can add snots onto my repertoire. That makes me classically trained, right?
Saturday night I gave advice to a friend about how he shouldn't leave evidence of his fucked up parenting for his children to discover later down the road. Half a day later I was snapping pics of Chris and my uncle posing Gideon with a cigarette and Heineken. I should probably start following my own advice. Please don't call child protective services. It was an unlit cigarette.
Here's a more appropriate picture.

OMG, he is so cute! He is even cuter now than he was not long ago. And he is huge compared to the last pictures we saw. I swear to God he'll be asking for the keys to the car soon.
I should take another picture of him with his ducky now that he doesn't scream in the tub. That is if if I sing to him -- and if you ever heard me sing you'd wonder why he wasn't screaming, but I have to do whatever I can to toughen this kid and prepare him for the cruel cruel world he'll someday embark on.
La la la!
Um. After a week of delving through generations of old letters and evidential such-like, I want to say that the evidence is interesting... and if you can't avoid messing a kid up (I certaily can't) the evidence will at least give em good stories and people to blame!!!
I should mention I was named after the abortion clinic where my mother "didn't go through with it." In my family, we tend to be full-disclosure fuck ups.
