My favorite little boy, Happy five months, slugger. Five months is huge. And you are huge- in size, in moxy, and in smiles for days. Here’s what we know (and appreciate/fear/respect) about you: You have impeccable timing. This is very good. This is also very, very bad.

Oh, I had planned to write up a detailed list of all the various places my words were being flung this week- but NO MORE. For you see, I think my “to do” list for the week would be far more entertaining to read: Things I Had Planned To Do Before Monday Afternoon Struck: Do maybe four loads of laundry.

(In the eyes of Christianity, anyhow, and not in the whole She Doesn’t Look Like Anyone Except For Maybe P.J.’s Best Friend Neil A Tad When The Light Makes Her Hair Slightly Reddish- But I Swear She’s A Schoeny, Have You Seen Her Mouth kinda way.) P.J.’s awfully excited. We had a small baptism yesterday for our secondborn buttercup…and I’m not kidding you, she was an incredibly good baby. Which is no surprise. But it’s {Read More}

Nora Jane was baptized yesterday and she was kinda okay with it. Kinda. Actually she was superb during the processional (yep, she got to proCESS) and great through the readings and the homily. And then she woke up. To be fair, she couldn’t have been the comfiest of gals. She wore the Schoeny family lace christening gown, complete with Puritanical eyelet bonnet (as my sister Rachel exclaimed- “I saw Goody Proctor with the devil!”) and there were more than a {Read More}
