antony wrote a new blog post: My Baby’s Cuter Than Yours, But it’s the Right Thing.

Let me back up a bit.
I think a terrible mistake would be waiting until you love kids before you have one of your own. I never really got there and only tolerated most of them in small doses. We all know people who are drawn to the drooling infant on the other side of the [...]

antony wrote a new blog post: Baby Products: Bewilderingly Useful.

The walls and walls of unidentifiable doodahs in a baby store can make it one of the more bewildering shopping experiences, with the possible exception of that irrigation supplier on Oxford Road. I’ll catch myself in a bit of a trance, staring at things, wondering where I’d stick them or what they taste like. Most [...]

antony wrote a new blog post: Celebrate Something Meaningful this New Year’s

Footage of New Year’s eve celebrations always helps me confirm something: People need very little good reason to get silly. Images include those of sweaty, writhing multitudes yelling along with the clock and embracing deliriously. And that guy involved in a drunken stand-off with police after being spotted walking down the freeway swinging a deck chair… [...]

antony wrote a new blog post: First Christmas, ever. (Pt. 2)

It’s important to bring some closure to my previous post, for all those who are wondering whether our 4-month old darling received anything on her first Christmas. Well, funny story. I hit the mall to sort out some last minute stuff, after having written what I did previously, and ended up buying an item for [...]

antony wrote a new blog post: When did we stop smiling, people?

It may seem like a strange question, but I’ll explain. One of my most heart-warming moments in the day as a new dad is walking into my baby girl’s room in the morning. It’s because I always get a smile within seconds of waking her. It’s completely instinctive and has nothing to do with how [...]

So, our baby daughter is four months old. It’s mid-December and we’re trying to decide if we should be giving her a gift. I mean, it’s not as if she going to know about it. In fact, she probably won’t even understand it next year. If we did it it would be for us, or [...]
