Cassie Jekyll, Baby Hyde!

By day: So sweet! So cute! So mild-mannered!
By night: So evil! So heinous! Such a holy terror!

Actually, she's pretty placid most of the time. Really.

Still Oppressive

I saw CB at lunch today. She was dressed to oppress (i.e., not swaddled), and lived up to her attire.

All Hail the Tiny Oppressor!

Cassie was fabulous for her first two-and-a-half weeks. Then, she turned into an evil demon baby.

Nicole asked me last night if I mind that she now thinks of Cassie as her "oppressor," demanding to be fed every two hours without fail. Nic then demonstrated the oppressor's basic means of domination: first sleeping peacefully, then opening one eye, looking inquisitive, and finally opening her mouth. If a boob doesn't arrive within seconds, screaming commences.

Thus was born a new nickname: The Tiny Oppressor, or T.O. Like Napolean, she does not let her small stature diminish her power.
