Postcard Idea

Dear Husbands,

So right after this picture was taken, flying nannies swooped in, took the babies, fed them organically grown vegtables and tofu, and then so to nappy time. Meanwhile, us mommies took our tops off and had a well-deserved Long Island Ice Tea. Wish you were here!
love,

Pow Wow

Today the Easy's checked out our first ever Pow Wow. Milo and co. got to see all sorts of attractions...see below... Too hot for pants! Yes, and no shoes...still working on that one! He's not the biggest fan of wearing shoes...

Milo demonstrated "nice touches" with the mini horsy!


Fun dancing, festive costumes, beautiful music...


Yes, he's a real bird!



Milo was mesmorized by the dancing and hypnotic drum beats. Look closely, you'll see his hand stamp which is not from the night before...I swear...

"WhooPs"

So, these shots were taken a month or so ago...but I just figured out how to upload video. Yes, people, I have discovered a whole new world! Milo in 4D...can you handle it? I find the cutest and most memorable times are in a high chair...

Your zen moment...

Poo and other Sh*t

Dear Milo,

Today you have successfully passed poo 4 times.

Do you think tomorrow you could take the day off? I'm not asking for much...just let all those vitamins and minerals from the food I'm (forcing you to eat through doggie inspired cat vomit smelling Gerber jarred up food) lovingly making by scratch sans salt get good and marinated with your growing bones, strong muscles and beautiful (10!) teeth...

and then we could revisit the poo, say...Saturday afternoonish?

sweet.

So, in other thoughts, by the time you read this, you should find this post quite funny. For, unless you are able to google your name by the time you're 5, you won't know of how awesomely funny your mother can be. Otherwise, I'm afraid you will begin the long journey of being embarrassed by your parents. Welcome to.

It'll sort of be like a 30th birthday present...Happy Birthday SoN!! Here's the URL to a blog that I've kept since you were born! Isn't it AWESOME!!

And this will be funny, because by then, you may possible have made me a grandma. HELL YEAH! And you'll be thinking, wow, my mom...even WAY BACK THEN, had a sense of humor!

If you don't share in the humor....then obviously you were switched at the hospital by that funny looking nurse who kept coming in to check on dilation...("I said Chardonney, NOT epidural!!")

too much?? alright, this seems like a good place to stop anyhow.

dilation.

happy 30th!

ps If you poo tomorrow, I'll still love you...We can negotiate on something else...say, you sleeping 14 hours at night...yes?
