Guilt, Denial, Reckoning . . .
Blog, you are like friends I get WAY too out of touch with, and then just don’t know where to pick back up. I’m going to assume you are like the best of old friends. It will be effortless, right? And fast? Yes.
Superstars Hank & Willie here for a fabulous weekend while their dad laid the kitchen floor. We had a BIG time. Big whales, big dinosaurs, big city, and BALTO, the hit of the weekend, and all the while Anna & Melissa snapping gorgeous photos. Sadly, there are none from inside the car in which we all fit for this journey.
Followed by another Mystic migration, and further celebration of adorable little boys.
And then came the cousins, discovery of splashparks & sillybands, and smiles.
True love of NetNet was in the air.
Year 2 of M&L at Hard2Guard a great success, they needed bodyguards.
A twin boy Hootenanny with the Derisi boys was a great success – post-lunch skinnydipping shots unavailable here.
An exquisite fresh air dinner with our beloved Grandma, Grandpa, and Netnet was a treat.
Tempted to plan a visit? You should! You will be greeted by this, be covered in hi-fives and kisses, and lovingly shown TRUCKS, our latest fascination. Next entry will focus on only one event, visit to Ontario-on-the-Lake, where summer started with a flurry of hose fights, popsicles, and family fun!
We Let Them Eat Cake! Happy Birthday Matthew & Leo!
Sick of this? Not me, nor, does it seem, are the rest of American parents in the digital age. See the article “Framing Childhood” in this weeks NYT Magazine. Cliched suburban motherhood becomes me more everyday . . . and I’ve never been happier. Hmmmm. So here I go again, framing a practically perfect day in real time, and in retrospect.
They do not know what is about to hit them . . . well, Leo might have a guess.
Got frosting?
Leo loves to share food. So cute when it isn’t kinda gross.
Thank goodness Matt grew these teeth just in time to eat cake!
Boys, it has been an amazing first year. You keep us laughing, and laughing, and laughing. Life is so very good with you. Dad & I looked at each other on your birthday and agreed, best year ever. Can’t wait for what’s to come.
Cruising
These outfits from our Arizona cousins couldn’t be more appropriate for the guys these days. Happy and Joy, that’s what it’s all about. The guys, who usually reach milestones about 6 weeks apart, pulled up within the same 24 hours and haven’t looked back. 10 months and counting, must remember to take pictures for it is all happening so fast.
Fabulous trip to Rochester for Christmas had us mostly snuggled in at NetNet & GaGa’s house, with outings to GG’s and Party & Paul’s for festivities.
Presents? Oh, we got lovely presents! But that PAPER!
Back on Long Island for a perfect snow, and a Happy New Year to come for all!

Rush, thanks for helping me embed video!!
And now what you really came for . . . 
We’re spending a lot of time poolside these days. M&L love the water and the heat has finally turned on. We swim every afternoon in the shadow of our neighbors’ house. Good thing since we don’t have a bathtub that fits anymore!
We think we’re ready for cereal!
This first time was our cleanest by far. All downhill from here. To be followed by swim in the pool!
We spent a gorgeous week on the shores of Lake Ontario.
Everyone had their favorite vacation activities.
Baby Maggie knows twins are used to getting bopped in the head!
We returned home to Colorado Buddies!!! How did THESE boys get so big?
How cute are the newlyweds?
Our first dip in the big pond – we all loved it!
And if I’m crazy enough to put a picture of my postpartum self in a bathing suit, I can catch these pretties in their pj’s. Thanks for a great visit to the shore Shah family!
Milestones
5 Months old today – here’s what we’ve been up to since summer hit!
What you can’t see – these seats float, making this an incredible core workout for those wishing to shed a few pounds. Nobody here fits that description.
Ready for anything!
Me too!
Anything except solid food, that is.
It’s been the happiest five months of our lives boys – thanks for all the funnies!
