Mater: Too Many Avocados...and Shopping for the Big Birthday!

Posted by Mater , Friday, September 4, 2009 4:40 PM

So Pater has been asking me to post before and during pictures of the development of Avocado Junior. I can't decide if this is a way of documenting the development for the baby or for his own amusement. In any case, I clearly have had one too many avocados.

The During shot
As you can see, we've come a long way - the watermelon, macaroni, cheese danish, rugalach and cookie addictions didn't do much to help the cause, but I say it's all genetic - or water. I mean, the "severe generalized edema" the doctor likes to call my current state - it's really just water retention, right? Nothing a few bathroom stops won't fix.
In other news, I went shopping for your big birthday party and bought lots of stuff for your arrival! Do you think balloons were too much? Hmmm... I hope you like what I got you. It's stressful, really. How do I know if you'll like nail clippers or scissors? Or which diaper rash cream you'll prefer? I guess your bum will let us know soon one way or another. I have to admit though, that I didn't care for the things I had to buy for myself for your birthday party. Please be gentle on me, okay? Deal.
See you soon!!!
