New Improved, now with 35% more shoe! Milo got him slef some new kicks. Not due to merit, but due to the fact he can't stop growing. The funny thing is that I told him that the new shoes make you run, so now all he does is run! You should hear him say shoes, It's more like "CHEWS"

Strange Maine: Milo and its mysteries

Here Ye, Here Ye!
Weirdness abounds in Maine!

When I was pregnant with Milo there was an odd news story that I heard. Today I found this. What a strange, creepy and beautiful place is Maine

Well What else to do in the afternoon but watch the sunset. Me and Milo met up with Kevin to hit the "prom" to catch the last rays of a not so cold "winters" day. Everyone who knows anything about sunsets/trees knows this spot. (evidenced by the empty wine bottles, tea lights,and pine cones.) Lets just say Mom is happy to have not been witness to Milo over 12 ft. off the ground... the sunset always puts me in a good mood....

Last week a kind a willing group accompanied me to Happy Wheels, Portland's local roller skating rink! What fun we had. A flash back to the seventies, and what a wild ride, they even played Blondie.
This is a photo of Jess and Kevin, dancing it up. Tonight we had dinner with the lovely couple, and boy was it good. Milo even got to see Jess' pet rabbit, Dexter. He was very excited.
Thanks for some yummy food Jess!

Yes folks, that there desk is a product of Milo and Jenna's hard work. You got it! We built this desk aka drawing table for Pa. A gift of sorts to say Dad we love your art! So get to arting. Also Milo wanted to show off his wood working skills. He wields a hammer with style and grace, I might add.
Chris is enjoying his "space" immensely. And for all of Milo's hard work, we found a "work bench" for him, as well. Now he can really show us how its done.

All is well in Portland. Our winter has been positively springy.
Please stayed tuned for some more photos. There is much to be seen and heard.
