“there should be no �but� there. and there should be nothing following that but.

never.”

What can I say? Your fucking brilliant.

I *hate* *hate* *hate* *hate* people’s “YOU SHOULDS.”

I was your blog virgin today.. first visit and now I am addicted. LOVE the tee/onesie on Madeline. My baby girl was born 4/1/08 and I lost my mom the same way you lost Liz so reading this has brought back some crazy feelings but along with it, lots of laughter. So thanks

My daughter got her first tooth at four months….be on the lookout for earaches and temperatures!! Mine didn’t have that but just a heads up….I used to use a cold spoon (like put it in the fridge for a while) and she loved that – it helped with cutting the teeth. She also liked to suck on those cheap little icy popsicles (the different colored ones that you get like 200 for $1??) but they were nice b/c they were easy to hold and stayed cold and didn’t leak or drip anywhere – plus the colors are pretty cool. Good luck!!

Matt – still up, computer propped up on my stomach (typing in the dark is rather hard)- wanted to chime in that I’ve got a girl crush on juanita, C in the V, and K8. Besides that, Steve who is too chicken to write anything (including that he loves Mario Kart – I told him you, XBox and he could be fast friends) wanted me to tell you that he was convinced that the teething had started at 3 months with Mags, but here we are going on 10 months and no toofers. Here’s to hoping Madeline gets one before Mags! Additionally, you mentioned in your comments to “M” (in your profoundly far more sensitive that I could ever hope to duplicate way) that you have a group of widow/widowers that you talk with frequently, and I wanted to say that the group of Creeps here in the MN are always trying to think of ways to make you and Maddie’s day brighter and if you think of any ways we could make their days brighter drop one of us an e-mail (Rachel, Becky, Nancy, me), we’d love to spread some extra love.

Matt,

I read your blog because your story is moving, your writing is heartbreaking and funny, and your pictures are awesome. My 3yo also likes the pictures, and today she has a comment. Peeking over my shoulder at you and Madeline on the slide, she asks, “What’s that family doin’?” I loved her perspective, no judgements or wierdness- you and Madeline are CLEARLY a family.

Happy 4 months!!

Ok ****EVERYONE**** No more hatred for commenter #20. THAT WAS ME!!!!Yall need to hate commenter #21. I’m the last one to judge Matt on his grieving, I lost my husband 13 months ago in Iraq and still cry every damn day! Although, I totally teased him about his redish, orangish shoes a few times on the phone…I’m a super nice person.

SO fuck Tuesdays & Commenter #21…(and your ugly shoes – sweetheart!)
