Yes, I’ve become that mother. The one who posted 6,000 photos of her first child by the time he was one month old and then posted absolutely nothing about her second child. Not the birth, not the fact that he was the exact weight and length as Harry (creepy), not the numerous first coos and sighs and adorable things babies do, not the cute Christmas photos, nothing. Deal with it.
It’s not that I love my second child any less (his name is Franklin BTW) (and he’s super awesome BTW) it’s just that managing a highly active toddler and Christmas and house guests and life takes precedence. Or it’s that I’m 37 and I have an infant and I’m tired. So very tired. Or it’s that I’ve been watching every single episode of Downton Abbey. WHATEVER. But we’re here now. Isn’t this nice? I’d offer you some cookies but I ate them. All of them.
Anyway I now present to you Franklin James Illingworth, one month. He’s the perfect baby if I may say. Cute as a diaper box photo and never cries and generally goes with our crazy flow. We like him a lot.
Harry likes him too.
