I am trying to get some work done at home tonight after having dinner at my in-laws (I still owe my readers an in-law story – I’ll save that for another day).
I seem to be having a hard time focusing, because I’m tired. Uploading pictures seemed much more logical that reviewing Mylars anyway.
Since we lost an hour this weekend, I have been attributing my weariness to the time change. When I started looking at pictures, I realized that I might actually be tired from just hanging with the Shmoo for 2 days.
The weather here in Connecticut is so bizarre. About 10 days ago, I got stuck driving home from work in a freak Northern Maine snow storm (that was supposed to be flurries). It took me 2 hours to drive about 3 miles. Less than a week ago, we got 8 inches of snow and it has been about 10 degrees most of the week.
This weekend, it was about 55-60 degrees both days. No worries, it will most likely be 20-30 again by the end of the week. In New England, a 55 degree day is like preparing for summer – EVERYONE is outside! We took advantage!
The following is a pictoral narrative of our last 48 hours.
I direct you not only to the evil, sinister look on his face, but the boots he got from Aunt Laura for his birthday that he HAD to wear with his jammies.
Shmoo loved helping Momma plant some seeds for our vegetable garden
The dirt goes “in heee-ya” (“in here” with a Bronx accent), we lost a few seeds by not paying close enough attention to what dirt he was playing with.
He did not like it when I tried to get him to take the bubble stick out of his mouth.
His girlfriend’s 2nd birthday party!
MICKEY! (he calls him “Mick”)
Shmoo and his BFF behind bars
Kissing the birthday girl! Not sure if she wanted the kiss.
On Sunday, we hit the St. Patrick’s Day Parade in a local NY town (yes, I know it’s early)
Every parade needs a green mohawk
The family
Shmoo watching the parade in style
Shmoo and his BFF (they kinda remind me of the movie Grumpy.Old.Men)
Mommy and her college buddies/sorority sisters (the one holding the kid is my “little”)
This is actually from a few days ago, but the picture is funny. Here is Shmoo and his BFF “sharing” a hat (aka taking it apart and giving the inside part to Shmoo). What a duo.

Oh my GOSH!!! He’s getting so big so fast!! I feel like I havent left you a comment in forever (it’s Michelle). Glad to hear that you all had a great weekend, it looks like fun was had by all. It was good too to read your last entry about the discussion you and Lo had about having another child. We’re getting ready for a possible insem on Jen mid April and I say the same things Lo says. But, I really think that it will all go the way it’s supposed to. Right???? Lol. Hope that you’re all doing great and hopefully I’ll be back to commenting full time soon. XXXXXOOO Michelle and Jen

Looks like a busy but fun weekend. LOVED the pictures. He is so cute and he’s getting so big! The pictures of him with his bff are too cute for words. They obviously have a great friendship already.
