BEWARE! You will be Afraid!

Roll up! Roll up! Witness a Modern Marvel, a Feisty and Ferocious Female and undoubtedly A Naughty Nipple Nasty Nappy Ninja. Those with a weak constitution are urged to look away or stick to your knitting! Be alarmed at her Devious Duplicity! Be Alert as to her Cunning Cuteness! Just, we beg of you, be Careful!



Yes ladies and Gentlemen, she looks gentle enough, some might even call her cute, but don't be fooled. Witness now as an innocent life is threatened by her Bestial Savagery!



Unaware, the trusting, naive doll allows itself to sit perilously close to the tremulous Maw of the Quivering Beast!



Like terrible, unwatchable Lightning she strikes! Too fast for the human eye to see, we've harnessed the power of a Spaniards Hips on his Wedding Night into a special lense able to capture this Macabre Massacre!



Look away now Women. Men, Cover the eyes of your young ones lest they be forever scarred by the Horrible Humanity of what we see and become Beatnicks, lost to you forever.



Thankfully, it is over quickly for the doll. Its gentle life lost before it knew what danger lay in waiting. Its felty black eyes never to open 'pon lifes harsh horrors again.

Take from this what you can Gentle Viewer, be happy in what you have and love but keep the knowledge of what you've seen here, deep, deep inside your heart and use its lesson to protect those you love....

FROM THE CHARANOSAURUS!

What does this have to do with Kevin Bacon?




Nothing, not really, but the first title that came to mind was something to do with Footloose. Besides that, anyone who is anybody in this world knows that everything is linked to K-Bake-On one way or another. This post is for David, A good friend of ours who bought Charlie a Beautiful little pair of booties. We've had this photo for a little while but have been incredibly terrible in not posting it up, cause it is damn cute.

Thanks David, for the shoes!

Back, To the Future!

Wow,

It's been positively ages since my last update. I ofcourse offer my unreserved appology and in some small way of recompense I can offer a free 6 kg Novelty tub of Talcum Powder to the reader who sends me the greatest tale of woe that has arisen from not seeing fresh pictures of Charlie. Entrys are to be in Essay format and there is a 1500 word limit. A $7 administration fee is also applicable to all entrys.

Now that that's out of the way.. We're both feeling the strain. Charlie isnt eating properly still. On good days she eats about 3/4's of what she should be eating. She should be spurting along in growth spasms right now but instead progress is very slow. She's rejected the breast entirely now and we have had to make the switch to bottles and formula after a very hard couple of weeks trying to stick with Breast Milk. Its been hell on Sam.

The bottle and formula had immediate possitive effects on Charlie. Feeding is now much less traumatic for everyone, but still far from perfect. She's still in obvious pain and discomfort whilst feeding, the poor thing, but its seems to have atleast become fairly predictable from day to day. She's on medication which is supposed to kick in after around 3 weeks, so we're hoping that will make things easier on her.

We want to see some big weight gains! The good news is that when she does get to have a good feed, she is just the most adorable little button of love ever. What am I saying, she's always adorable and way ahead of the curve developmentayl wise, but it must be hard for her, always being hungry but not able to eat. All her body wants to do is grow but it's a tough ask at the moment. I think you need a new picture to remind you how cute she is!
