I went on a playdate with a new mom acquaintance the other day.
I was expecting it to be like this:
It felt a lot more like this:
Type A Mom: "Can your baby crawl? Mine can!!! My Charles Havensbottom VII crawled at 3 months. Your baby looks like he just started crawling a few days ago. You should have done more tummy time."
Type A Mom: "Darling Charles Havensbottom the Articulate can say Mama, bottle, and Harvard. It sounds like your baby has a speech impediment. He should really be making more consonant sounds."
Type A Mom: "See how well Charles Havensbottom the Connoisseur feeds himself his caviar? Your baby just smushed bananas into his ear. If you sang Head, Shoulders Knees and Toes to him in the womb, he'd know where his mouth is by now."
Me: "Wow! Where did Charlie learn to roll his eyes like that?"
