The Wink is a labor of love, occasional source of ire and constantly influenced by the toddlywinks in my life- my daughters. There's also the HunkyWink. You'll read all about them as The Wink unfolds. Please feel free to wink back!

You came for a baby. I gave you a tub.

Ok, so Lloyd Dobler totally had the better line...

"I told her I loved her. She gave me a pen."

But I'm trying.

I know you are clicking over, hoping to see the post that introduces the little girl I let you know about so many months ago.

She isn't here yet. I mean she is, oh but she so *is* here, her feet and knees brushing against my insides, her hips and her insistent rump press against my belly, always in a very cockeyed way, alternately entertaining and grossing me out.

I apologize, but can I tell you that the next best thing is here?

We have a tub. And a shower.

We can't use them, but they are here and that fact makes me feel as if I am waking upon a sea of frothy bubbles made from the most expensive bath gel available.



Look at those happy feet toes.

And here's the girl*, you know, the one you came looking for...




*I promise I'll post baby photos just as soon as I can!

I love the toes so far off - peeking out beneath the belly button and tummy! Precious!

I hope you get a chance to use the tub/shower before the newest baby girl makes her appearance. Just because it feels so damn good!

I'm glad the tub arrived before the baby, if barely! And I am so excited for the baby!

How totally reassuring to have a tub and shower, a much-needed piece of the puzzle before this little girl makes her debut. And yeah, I'm popping over here expecting a labor story and some new baby photos any day now!
