... but it's still a pretty good time.
For my spring break last week, I decided to road trip it to the Philly 'burbs to visit the Lunas. I hadn't met Rory yet and hadn't seen Megan in almost two years. Inexcusable. So I loaded up on gas, audiobooks, and honey roasted peanuts and hit the road on a snowy, crappy morning.
Megan and I had a great time catching up and swapping advice. She taught me how to make yogurt in my crock pot, I introduced her to new hair products. We took Oscar and Rory to the zoo on a chilly Monday and devised a silly outfit for O to wear to preschool in honor of April Fools on Thursday.
Megan also hooked me up with some baby gear that her kids have outgrown: a bouncer, a bucket carseat, a jumper ... tons of stuff. I'm so happy to have this stuff, but it's a little unnerving to have a jumper in the dining room and the bucket somehow makes it seem ... real? Soon? CRAZY?
Here are some pics from the trip:

Rory was largely unimpressed with the zoo, but was pretty happy to hang out in the beco carrier with Megan. I took this picture as we were walking and she was smiling and giggling, but stopped for the split-second the camera clicked EVERY TIME.

Oscar, on the other hand, LOVED it.

He was especially into the lions, who were all up against the glass and really close to us, and the snakes.
And here is the finished silly dress day outfit:

Oscar only responds to America's Next Top Model-type direction. This is what you get when you tell him to "show me crrraaazzzy!"
