A cameo from Ziggy this month.
Just one more month til the big 100! What am I going to do? How am I going to make this special? Well. I have a whole month to decide. Heh.

February 28 – March 3, 2016
February 28 – post race chargrilled oysters. Yum!
February 29 – doggy feet!
March 1 – Ziggy is a perfect gentledoggy in the carpool line.
March 2 – Finally, the boys love going to the library! Alas, it is not for the books.
March 3 – My friend Robyn is awesome and does a mean mean face. (This is from the Sex Ed episode of Teachers. Watch it!) I don’t have cable, so I had to wait until this morning and get it from iTunes. So exciting!
February 21-27, 2016
So much to catch up on!
February 21 – the jasmine vines I planted last year are in bloom! So pretty!
February 22 – Linus was home sick. So obviously we took a selfie.
February 23 – Louis Armstrong on a foggy morning
February 24 – Ziggy likes feet of all kinds.
February 26 – some of my favorite coworkers came to visit! And they were at my house! Really quite a feat when you work for a remote company like we do.
February 27 – went to the expo for the race we did on Sunday, and the boys were excited to meet the Geico gecko.

Got some catching up to do!
February 17: Took the boys to get donuts after school. It was a gorgeous afternoon.
February 18: Just another Ziggy walk.
February 19: Miles finished his 100th day of school project! That’s a lotta marshmallows.

February 13: Ziggy love his foot. It’s creepy as hell, though. He carries it around very gently, because it squeaks, and he does not like the squeak.
Bonus: It’s also hilarious when he tries to go through the dog door with it, but just can’t.
February 14: My sister sent the boys Trivial Pursuit Family for their birthday, and Linus wanted to play it. I love Trivial Pursuit so I agreed. We all sat around as a family playing a board game for the first time ever, I think. Well, that didn’t last too long. Oliver and Miles and Daddy lost interest after a while, but Linus and I played til the bitter end.
The great thing about this game is that it has two sets of cards – one for adults, one for kids.
So picture it, Linus needs his last wedge of pie, and he lands on pink (entertainment.) I look at the question. “You have GOT to be kidding me,” I say.
Mario and Luigi are plumbers. True or false?
Well, he was gleeful when he heard that one. Next, it was time for the final question. I got to choose the category. For some dumb reason, I picked pink again. Pulled out a new card, and I couldn’t believe what I saw for the pink question…
What is Ash Ketchum’s little yellow sidekick called in Pokemon?
NO FREAKING WAY. The kid’s last two questions are about his two obsessions. (Oh, did I mention there were some soccer questions earlier? Yeah.) So, needless to say, Linus beat me. Not by much. And the adult questions were hard. I swear!
February 15: No great pic, but here’s Ziggy worn out at the end of the day. It’s tough to be a dog, yo.
January 22, 23, 2016 (and other stuff)
On the 22nd of January, Ziggy destroyed his dog bed. Sigh.
On the 23rd of January, I went wig shopping at Fifi Mahony’s and wore it to a parade that evening. Heather also got a wig. I just realized I used all of my birthday money on hair. My mom gave me some that I used to get it chopped, and my in-laws gave me some that I used for this fabulous wig. Woot!
In other news (I haven’t really blogged much lately besides pics) my latest New Orleans Moms Blog post is up. I used an old picture of Oliver for this one.

Ziggy stole my favorite sweatshirt.
The sky was blue but the river was foggy. It was quite beautiful. #nofilter

We finally made it to see George’s parents (his mom has been sick for a while) and they gave me these Santa ornaments. I don’t know where they got the idea that I like wine. Heh.
The boys were off on Monday, and I, being the Meanest Mom on Earth, made them leave the house and go for a walk. They brought cheese. The river is still so high! Usually it’s out past those trees back there.
Pretty rose, so vibrant it almost hurts. It’s like springtime in New Orleans. I love the house in the background.

I drove to Baton Rouge (and back) on Thursday to see my mom get installed as president of the Greater Baton Rouge Woman’s Council. Go mom!
Ziggy got neutered Friday morning. He was not a fan of the cone of shame. I call this one “sad dog in dark yard.”
January 9, 10, and 11, 2016
January 9, 2016
I really intended to have a better photo for Saturday, which was my 41st birthday. It was a fantastic day. I went to the gym in the morning, then lunch with a giant margarita at lunch, followed by a brow waxing. To cap it off, I met up with my friend Kettie for a drink (she was in town from Dallas) along with another friend, and then Ren magically showed up as well! And finally, as if that wasn’t enough, my neighborhood girlfriends all gathered at our friend Jen’s house for nibbles and adult beverages around the fire pit. Can’t beat it, really.
January 10, 2016
Sadly, I woke up feeling quite ill on Sunday. No, it was not because I overindulged on my birthday, I don’t think. I actually had a fever and all. But I managed to not barf while taking Ziggy for a walk.
January 11, 2016
Still feeling a bit under the weather. But managed to walk Ziggy again. The river is so high right now! I never tire of this view of downtown and the French Quarter, especially when the sky is so blue.
January 8, 2016
We brought Ziggy along on the ride to school this morning, and Millie and Ann Frances and Hank were really excited to see him.

A change of scenery this month. Spied this nice wall on the side of a house (which gossip says was purchased by Linda Hamilton, but who knows if that is true) while out walking Ziggy.
If you think it’s hard to get three boys to cooperate, imagine adding a dog in the mix.
