Argh and non-parenting advice

[geminigirl]

After the battle of Nap, which finally culminated in nap winning, even if nap won in my lap, the cat decided to climb onto the kitchen counter where he isn't allowed. And if I got up and moved the cat, I'd wake the napping baby. So I left the cat alone, misbehaving (and he knew it, too) and decided nap was more important. Until the cat decided to attack my plant, at which point the idea of cleaning potting soil off the beige chair won. So we tried Nap in the swing instead and it didn't work very well.


*sigh*

And the advice part-

Does anyone know what the appropriate kind of gift to give for a Christening is? We have one on 8/24.

I always do the multiple of 18 anyway with an explanation. It comes from our hearts and traditions and in my experience is well received.

I thought about doing that-the parents of this child have attended Rosh Hashanah and Pesach at my house, and are probably the type who would appreciate the idea.
