Wanted to let everyone know we are still alive and well up here in Marshfield....
Can't seem to find the camera cord .... again! I am busting Brads balls about it all the time. I hope I havn't stashed it away somewhere 'safe'. anway....
I went to see sex in the city - my first night out without my boys since my arrival to America. It was SO GREAT! Everyone was dressed up - I went with about 10 others - our friend Stacy being my main connection followed by Rick and Phil (who kindly offered for us to spend the night just as we did memorial day weekend being the drunken admirals that we are) . The whole audience clapped at the start and ooohhh'd and ahhhhh'd together then at the end - everyone clapped and hollard again!
I actually do have some kind of life outside of this house.... as this Friday a woman I met on a plane is comming to town and we are having dinner while I admire her new baby - though he is around 5 months now.... how do I get this off italics? hmmmmm not sure what I did there. Oh also I may be going to meet her in NYCity .... you know - just because I like live near New York and all. One bonus of moving.
to continue....
next week I plan on shopping with Stacy as she is starting a fab new job at MIT. Stacy also sent Jackson two tickets to the aquarium in Boston along with a GIANT box of cheerios - i can't wait to take him/me to see the fish! I do belive Jackson has a crush on her - as as soon as we say "Stacy" his eyes light up and he keeps repeating her name. too cute.
Family must be missing my boy - as he has recieved all sorts of Elmo things in the mail - I have a shrine going. He has taken to Ernie and Bert a lot of late too - which is a nice change from the norm.
I have started going to a FAB new mothers centre - Jackson goes to the 'Terrific two's class" he is not big on the water spraying cool-aid project we do each week. But loves to put stickers on a bucket and climb on the padded squares - but his fav time is story time and he sits near Miss Kate and pays such close attention that today she let him read the book after she had finished reading to the class. The place is called "mama move" they have a web site but basically it is an ultra plush place for mums. We have coffee/tea read a mag while the toddlers play with fancy organic/eco friendly toys - and the layout is like being in a rich friends lounge room - with a nice divider wall from the two's and you. they also have a massage room that you can go too - and they will watch your kid while you get your massage or attend a yoga/dance/excersize class. The centre is new and the owner said she wanted some place that mums could go too when they have both a newborn and a toddler. Most of the women in the class I go to have newborns or are pregnant with number two or three.
Well - I must go eat some more almond m&m's - my mother in law is sabotaging my weight loss - just as I do hers - so we call it even and I indulge without guilt as they are SOOOO good!

They watch your kids while you get a massage! I WANT TO GO THERE NOW!!!! As soon as I read that,all other thoughts from your post went right out of my head. Something about social events. I'm feeling very envious since I've been stuck inside this week with two cranky children, while it rains! Happy for you, though.
oh, also like your new blog look.
You write so well I can picture it all - though I still hope the camera lead turns up!
I just don't see what Stacys got that I haven't got!!! What the !!! are cherrios anyway?
Love u Lollie.
