Today was the annual HMED picnic at Larz Anderson Park in Brookline.  HMED stands for hospital medicine and is the name of the hospitalist group at BIDMC for which I now work. I knew that many members of our group have had kids in the last few years, but I was SHOCKED at the sheer number of kids in attendance.  The group has about 45 hospitalists, and there must have been 10 babies present under 1 years old and many more kids less than five.  Here’s a picture we took of all the kids (and many of the parents to hold the kids).
