Dear Schmoopie,

Today you learned how to blow your nose.

I would be more thrilled if you didn't teach yourself in my shirt.


Love you anyway,
Mommy

Dear Schmoopie.

I thought you were going to be the death of me today. You and sister would NOT take a nap. I was sick and so exhausted. You were whiney and crying all day long and kept being mischievous. You got into the dog food, pulled out the dog water and spilled a full bowl all over the floor, dumped teddy grahams all out...the list goes on kid. It was completely out of character for you. But mommy survived...and you guys went to bed an hour early.

Love,
Mommy

Dear Schmoopie,

You woke up sicker today than you were yesterday. Your poor little eye was swollen and red. I took you over to Urgent Care. The ladies there couldn't get over how adorable you were. You kept giving them your little crooked smile. Oh my little flirt, even with a puffy, oozing eye, you are still the most devilishly handsome creature.

Love,
Mommy

Dear Schmoopie,

It was a super busy day for us. We started the day off at the mechanic where you and your sister ran all over the place. You loved looking at all the car posters and having a new space to run. I loved watching you enjoy your life.

Later, we went to the mall with our friends. Jacks shared his wagon with you and you leaned back and cuddled up to him. It was so precious to me. I love watching you make little friends.

We took you guys to the play area in the mall and you escaped close to a bajillion times. You are too smart for your own good mr.

While at the mall, your oh so prepared mom neglected to pack the stroller. I rented a car cart and forgot to get a double car cart. (Yes I am super smart) So we stuck your sister in the car and you in the basket..you took it like a champ. If we weren't a spectacle before walking the mall with two sets of twins...we were DEFINITELY one now, with a babe in the clothes basket. I got you a cookie to make up for it.

You just ate two hands full of dog food while I unloaded your sister from the car. Not cool dude, not cool

Love,
Mommy

Dear Schmoopie,

You were especially sweet today. This morning you crawled in bed with me, laid on my chest, and played with my hair. All day you kept patting me and giving me smiles. I love having your tender little soul in my home.

Love,
Mommy

Dear Schmoopie,

Today you almost killed your beloved Mr. Wiggles (you're fish). I woke this morning and for some reason Mr. Wiggles was my first thought. I just had this feeling I should move his bowl. I ignored that feeling and the next thing I knew I heard a huge crash. By the time I got to your room, you were wearing a huge grin and poor Mr. Wiggles was withering on the floor. Don't worry, I saved him and he is happily hiding behind his plant. He is also as far away from your sneaky paws as possible.

All afternoon your sister kept stealing everything you had. Toys, paccis, sip cups....you name it, she took. I had finally had enough and refused to let her take your pacci. You, being the sweet angel you are, saw your sister throwing a fit and handed her your pacci with a smile on your face. Oh my darling boy, it is such a pleasure  being your mommy.

Love,
Mommy

Dear Schmoopie,

It snowed today! We ran through a baby blizzard on our way into Costco and you had the time of your life. We threw blankets over our head and laughed and popped in and out of the covers all the way inside. It was a special moment for mommy. Watching your and your sister experience things and take so much joy from simple pleasures gives me more joy than you can imagine. I love you mr. man.

Love,
Mommy
