Milking It for All It's Worth

Well, I'm enjoying my last days as an only child and trying to make the most of it. I'm trying to spend most of the day in my pajamas - and insisting that mommy take a picture of me everytime I see the camera even remotely near her hands.


I figure I need to start practicing my smile for all of the pictures I'm going to be taking with my new sister next week. Plus, I won't have the limelight all to myself much longer, so I need to ham it up while I can...and work on upping my game so I'm still numero uno around here.
Daddy also needs some attention, so he bought a couple of fedoras, which has really riled mommy. She thinks they are too silly - almost as silly as I look when I wear them.


I've also been spending as much time as possible on the phone with the grandparents. Usually, I give them the silent treatment so they think I am concentrating really hard on what they are saying to me. In truth, I'm just punishing them because they are sending presents to the house for this little girl who hasn't even been born yet and are leaving me high and dry. Well, not really high and dry, but every package that arrives on this doorstep needs to be for me and they need to understand that.

Of course, the biggest question of all is whether or not I'll be sharing my blog with this thing that is occupying mommy's tummy and making it impossible for me to sit on her lap. Personally, I think she should have her own, but I don't know how long it is going to take for her to learn how to type. I was about 11 weeks old before I started blogging, so we'll see if she can meet the high bar I have set for her. Until then, I may have to post updates for her. I've already thought of a great name for her website, though: Danja Days. In case you didn't know, Mommy has decided that Hadley's street name will be Danja (as in "danger"). If she and daddy can't decide on a middle name soon, that might be her legal name as well!

  1. Thatcher,
    Mommy just doesn't understand. You got the convertible sports car for Christmas, now the Fedora and the all day Pajamas- she doesn't understand that you're just the new Hugh Hefner of the under 5 set!

    Hubba Hubba!

    Love you

  2. Thatcher,
    Take it from Gran, it's a big responsibility to be the oldest. You will always have to tell Hadley what she needs to do and how to do it. I'm sorry, but it's a family curse. You have two years of experience on her. Enjoy you last day of being one year old. I love you
    Gran
