My baby sweats
No she doesn't, says Miss Southern Belle, she "glows." Uh, no, my baby sweats. Her head gets all warm and clammy. The hair at the nape of her neck gets damp and curls up.

She gets that from her daddy. When it's warm he can't even hold her, they're sweating all over each other, making each other even hotter.

I don't mind it. I think it's cute, like just about every other thing she does. When she's been crawling all around, terrorizing the dogs, cleaning off our coffee table for us, consuming our crumbs from the floor, she actually has some sweat to show for her efforts. It's validation for her hard work.

Did I mention dog hair clings to sweaty babies? I probably could have let that one go unsaid.
