A Beautiful Morning For Baseball

Just a few great shots of my baby.  He doesn't love the game yet.  He insists on many "breaks" and hates fielding.   But he's cute. 

Playa Pom Pom

Last Saturday Palmer had his first baseball practice.  I remember Connor's like it was yesterday.  Bob is coaching and Connor is helping out.  As you'd expect--the whole thing was pretty adorable.

Off Schedule

When you fall asleep and miss dinner the night before, you, of course, insist on mac & cheese for breakfast the next day at 6 AM.

Chit Chat With Kris

 Our homeowners association hosted an intimate evening with Kris Kringle.  It was so nice! 

1970s

Palmer likes to show off his chest hair. In restaurants. At lunchtime.

Field Trip

Palmer and I had a fun time at Ticonderoga Farms with his pre-school class on a great field trip. It was a beautiful day and we took a hayride to the pumpkin patch, played on the huge slides and of course, hit the pillow bouncer a few times. Simple fall fun!

Palmer's Self Portrait

He looks a little blue.

Big Boy Bike

We got a hand me down bike from our friends and had some training wheels put on it today.  Off he went.  He's a little leery and braking--well--half the time he gets it and half the time he flings himself and the bike to the ground in order to stop.  He's tough!

Birthday Party

Palmer went to his best friend Kendall's birthday party!  The pirate and his princess.

St Patrick's Day Snow Storm

Day 14 of the winter that just would not stop.  Home again.  At this point, Connor is over playing in the snow.  He's been inside playing Minecraft all day in his underwear.  But Palmer is still loving it.  

He'll never be this little playing in the snow again.  It deserved a picture. 

Palmer's First Selfies

Monster In The Snow

Come Shop At The Potty Store

Potty training.  Poop.  Time for this shit to get real. (Pun hysterically intended).  You drop some friends off at the pool, you get to shop.  This means you, Palmer.  This means you.

Angel Baby

He still is.

Kiddie Rides

This is the first summer Palmer is really not afraid to go on rides by himself. It's all very exciting. He especially loved the helicopters and the "mokacycles".

Watching him negotiate with the other boy about how they would handle the joystick was priceless.

He just finished saying "Mama!  Mama!  I not scared no more!"

Tough Guy

Pom Pom is 3!

How can it be that my baby is three!
The days have gone by in the blink of an eye.
He's a light of my life and stirs up some strife.
From dusk until dawn he never is wrong .
I love you my Pom Pom, your sweet little face.
Deep in my heart is your special place!

I Finally Like The Swings

Snow Baby!

Palmer made it to his third winter with no snow photos! Finally, in mid-March it happened. He loved it. So did I.
