Hot Date

Kate and I don't get out on our own much these days. So, it was with much excitement that we headed out for coffee the other night, leaving the kids in the care of my parents. We tried four different coffee places, all of which were closed. We ended up at Tim Horton's! How lame is that? There are going to be 5000 Lakehead students living here in a few years - hopefully that brings a decent coffee place that has products ending in "chino" and is open in the evenings. Oh, we miss JJ Bean and even (don't strike me down, ye gods of anti-capitalism), Starbucks.

Here are some photos of the kids (all courtesy of my mom):

- My Dad with Molly. He got in some trouble from Grammy for reading Goodnight Moon during the daytime. It's hard out there sometimes.

- Jacob about to eat his toes. When mom's at work we gotta eat something.

- Jacob with his Pentopus. Five-legged, so the Montessori police won't let it be called an octopus.

- Molly and the buzzing bumblebee
