…so far…
–finally met B&D’s baby. I don’t like babies because I don’t find them very amusing, but she was not too bad. Mainly we thought of stupid ways to pose her (my brilliant idea was to put her in a flower pot like a cheesy anne geddes portrait–but only bc her outfit made her look like a snow pea) and then took like 10 billion pictures.

Honestly, it’s not worth it to me.” Which made him feel really bad.
