Christmas 2012

Yeah, I realize that most every photo in all these posts are all about the Schmoo.  That's life with a 6 year old :)  Here is Christmas Eve and Christmas morning.  He was a super happy camper.  It was the year of the Spy Net Goggles and his own Kindle Fire. 

middle school

One student puked in class today. Another student gave me a scratch off lotto ticket for Christmas. Another student told me I was ruining his life. Just another day in middle school :)

Puzzle

Schmoo got some lovely Christmas presents from some dear friends of ours and he was sooo proud of himself for doing this 3D puzzle all on his own :)

Storybook Land, Christmas 2012

While mommy was having a root canal, Schmoo and Daddy had a lovely visit to Storybook Land to see Santa and ride the rides. 

Teeth

We've been losing teeth aplenty around here.  He is a snaggle toothed, crazy grinned, spaced out, extra toothed mess. I see many a future appt in orthodontia land.

Winter 2012-2013

This has been a ridiculous winter.  Last year I complained that we had NO snow.  This year we've had snow about 10 times, literally, but every single time it has been a dusting to about an inch.  SO ANNOYING!  It's enough to muck everything up, but not enough for a late start to the school day or a snow day or nothing.  Just had to have some reason to show this cute pic of my guys in the hats they've worn constantly this year... :)

Thanksgiving 2012

We went out to have a nice Thanksgiving dinner at Cousin Mario's in Mays Landing this Thanksgiving, and still don't understand my child. He LOVED the butternut squash soup, ate all of his and my green beans and kept asking for bites out of Ben's seafood pasta...."What's in that shell? Can I try it? Can I have another bite of the scallops...mussels...clams....shrimp?" But when I ask him if he wants to try a roll, (A ROLL!!!) "NO THANK YOU! THAT'S GROSS!"
