NOE COURTS

We have been visiting this little parklet on 24th and Douglas since before Ruth could sit up. An almost exclusively local crowd, it is also used as a popular place to run the pooches or shoot some hoops. This weekend Ruth sported her first pair of sneakers, a reward of sorts for surviving week one of phase one of weaning. Turns out coaxing a baby off the tit is eerily similar to quitting smoking. There are the endless proactive distractions, change of daily habits, craving for sweets, snacking and irritability not to mention the feeling of loss for a habit that was so comforting. With weaning, there is the added bonus of laying on the floor and screaming, or maybe that is just Ruth's way.
