I should just keep up better

I do much better if I keep up with things.

Owen has turned one and become a toddler-not-a-baby. I want to update this blog but I'm sort of stuck on where to start other than that he's strong and smart and cute and nice.

So I'll toss out "ask me anything", though I might break the answers into more than one post.

Please ask me anything you're remotely curious about (here, there, via email, etc.) with regard to Owen and his personality, development, our relationships with him; our relationships as a family with each other and the rest of the world; polyamory; whatever else. I'll use them, with gratitude, as a launch pad.

Hi, longtime lurker here. I'm also polyamorous although I don't have any kids.

I hope these questions aren't too personal. You said we could ask anything, though, so I'll give it a shot. (Although I'll understand if you don't' want to answer the first one. :) )

Are there any plans to give Owen a little brother or sister?

What has been the most surprising thing about parenthood so far?

Sometimes in two-parent families babies will often switch between preferring one parent and preferring the other. Has Owen had stages when he strongly prefers one of you?
