First Date

Molli got set up on her first date this afternoon. Kirsten brought Julius over for lunch. Julius is the boy who was born 9 days before Molli, but at full term. The comparison between them is interesting because you can really see what those seven extra weeks of gestation mean.

So here's an establishing shot:



Yes, that Julius is a veritable giant beside our little Molli. Molli was very impressed with him, although he didn't seem anywhere near as interested in her:



Trine just loved the whole Biker Dude with Biker Chick vibe the two were exuding. I think it's captured best in this third shot, where Julius looks like he's trying to start a fight with the guy across the bar while Molli looks on coyly:



Also, interesting to see what people have been writing about Molli Malou in the blogosphere now that the Times article has trickled around. One guy in particular bitch-slapped Trine and I as parents for choosing the name, so I bitch-slapped him back (politely) in his comments, and he ended up apologizing. (See the Moron Abroad blog.) Every other blog mention I've seen so far has taken our side on the issue, though.
