after-feed protocol, varies per baby. for churro: place clean burp cloth on shoulder and leisurely pat baby until burped, usually 25 pats. for falco: Equip burp cape for milk vomit deluge. Enable hyper-sonic pat mode until burped. Continue for second burp. There's always a second, juicer burp. To finish, decon baby, yourself and possibly the floor. #momstr

you know... this means that I could teach my future generations my crafts. this never crossed my mind. wow, this is an epiphany moment for me. I like it when I take notes and past me can remind present me how I did something once upon a time. Now imagine that past me can teach future me, in the form of my offspring or even offsprings' offspring how to spin long draw on a supported spindle or how to knit a hat. I've always been on the fence about recording video of my craft but this might be the meaningful reason that I need to do so. nostr:nevent1qqs2zv8sp8merm67khd73xerffx6ytjs8zc4c20e82x0gx74rdthwccpzemhxue69uhkummnw3ex2mrfw3jhxtn0wfnj7q3qr0rs5q2gk0e3dk3nlc7gnu378ec6cnlenqp8a3cjhyzu6f8k5sgsxpqqqqqqz45x5sq

wow, that's crazy. the former import/export coordinator in me is freaking out internally. if one of those containers was ours, we'd be boned. well, probably not cuz of insurance but still. what a headache. nostr:nevent1qqsxjj7qty0t09c72ldtkvylag7g52uh4lut27h5xevzywqea7lttgspzemhxue69uhkummnw3ex2mrfw3jhxtn0wfnj7q3qhyvh5n8062s3ezvyqmhjmzflr9l20sg647mx4urn7npx0zug50yqxpqqqqqqzkyk2qw

gradually, then suddenly. the babies are in size 1 diapers now! gonna be putting them in cloth diapers soon. we already do cloth diaper laundry for taro so adding two more babies' worth won't be much more of a hassle. #momstr

him: I saw an Osprey the last time I came through here. maybe we'll see one this time too. after a while... him: look! look! an Osprey! her: where? I don't see it! him: it's right there! you can't see it? her: no...? her: wait, you're talking about a helicopter, aren't you 🤦

mom: you're hungry and you should eat. I'm gonna make you some food. kid: no need, mom. I'm fine. mom goes to make food and comes back with a plate and sets it in front of kid. mom: I made you some food. it's really good. eat. kid: I said I didn't want to eat. mom: well, you really should but I'm not gonna make you. mom leaves and goes about to do other mom things. she returns some moments later... mom: well, if you're not gonna eat it. I'll have a few bites. kid watches and then starts to eat also. kid: mmm this is really good. I guess I was hungry after all. --- you think this is a story between taro and I. nope! I got mom'd by my mom. only after I finished my whole plate did I realize I use the same tricks she uses to get me to eat. #momstr

it is actually insane how much breastmilk these boys drink. I feel like a 🐄

dads with their kids on the playground. ya love to see it. #dadstr I'm sidelined on twin duty. they're napping in the stroller. man, the weather is nice today 😌

the spindle is on my nightstand and I get a few yards spun everyday. At least I try to do a little every day. gotta keep up my sanity and the muscle memory. #yarnstr #handspun
