The key to getting good seats at a Red Sox game is going in the second inning during a rainy day and scoring seats under cover. Ideally, it starts drizzling durring the game so that the pansies take off and it’s easier to get hot dog service. Here’s our future fan at her first game.

Congrats to Chad and Michelle on a beautiful Long Island wedding! And congrats to us for dancing while 7 months pregnant.

Nesting is hard work.  Nothing ever comes pre-assembled these days.  Luckily, the quality on DIY furniture has gone up tremendously over the last decade or so making jobs like these a snap.

Tracy was really a big help putting all of these things together.  It’s practically impossible to do this without someone reading the instructions to you in a commanding fashion.  “No, no, no I said screw ‘H'”

Goodbye wardrobe!  See you in August…(hopefully).  Not sure why there’s a strainer on my head.  Also on display are the reasons my wardrobe no longer fits: Milkshake, Pringles, Peanut Butter, and Chips a’hoy.

We went to JCPenney for a family portrait session (inspired by a Groupon we were given from Tommy’s parents for Christmas).  We wanted Max in the pictures, but JCPenney only allows dogs during the last time slot of the day (which was 5:30pm), and only on weekdays.  And did I mention that the closest JCPenney portrait studio is 40 minutes outside of Boston without any traffic?  There was pretty much no chance we were ever going to make it on time to one of these appointments, and the Groupon expired pretty quickly.  But, we made it in time to take a few great pictures.
