I just want to share a few things with you today.

• Babywearing Group on Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/groups/526876@N22/ – beautiful women of non-Western ethnicities carrying their babies as part of everyday life.  I found these to be really inspiring pictures, and they all brought a smile to my face.  Thanks to Steph @ Adventures in Babywearing for linking this on Twitter.
• Maia slept through the night. Of course, I woke up twice with leaky boobs worried about her, but that’s an acceptable price to pay.  Is our sleep regression over, or was this just a freak thing brought on by all of yesterday’s activity?  Only time will tell…
• “Under the Table and Dreaming” is still amazing: Loved it when I was younger, still love it now. Been singing songs to Maia this morning and just feeling good.  Listen on YouTube (yes, I turn on YouTube vids then work in other windows instead of watching it)!
• MotheringDotCommunity is turning off links in signatures unless you pay for them. This peeves me immensely.  I get a LOT of traffic from MDC forums and I visit a LOT of sites via people’s signatures.  Nothing I can do, but these used to be my favourite forums.  Looks like I’ll be spending more time at the EverythingMom forums, but, any suggestions for other forums to visit — hopefully not ones where people have twenty line long, sparkly signatures? (Yes, I’m talking about you, WhatToExpect.)
• I miss Maddie. Sometimes I go to read The Spohrs Are Multiplying.  I have to do it when Maia’s asleep and Chris isn’t home, because I invariably end up in tears.  I can’t understand what Heather and Mike are going through, and I never want to.  I didn’t read their blog while Maddie was alive — I wish I had — and in some ways I feel like a voyeur, a poser, for reading it now that she’s gone.  I never knew her.  But I miss her.
• I made a “How well do you know me?” Facebook quiz. And my husband only got 7 out of 10 right.  But so far, that’s the best anyone’s done.  I was kinda tricky on one of the questions — “What would be my perfect day?”, and so far everyone’s chosen the same answer but it’s not the right one.  That said, though, both answers sound like perfect days, so I guess I fail at making a quiz.
