I've just about recovered from the emotional trauma of Roger's Aussie Open defeat (and his subsequent blubbering). For future slams, either he hires a coach to try to come up with a new strategy for beating Rafa, or he has to hope that Murray/Djok/Verdasco/Other knocks off Nadal before the final. I'm still convinced that he will top 14 majors though.
I'm having trouble up-loading photos right now, so here's a wordy update instead:
Drove to Barrie yesterday to get a Jacob-sized broom and dustpan (his latest obsession). I guess someone in the family should be concerned about the messy state of the house. On the way home, we sang Old McDonald to ward off protests from the peanut gallery. For each verse, we asked Molly what animal he had on his farm and she answered: dog, dog, banana, dog.
We've started "gymnastics" every Wednesday morning. Mostly it involves running around indoors, which is great on days like today when it's too cold for outdoor fun. Molly likes sitting on the trampoline while I jump up and down. Jacob prefers chasing a rolling hoop and watching the big kids climbing. The instructor said she couldn't believe how un-shy the kids are. Molly has definitely come out of her shell with strangers in the past few months.
Jacob still seems a little starstruck from the weekend - we had a fun visit from Sophie, Seb and their parents. There was lots of kissing and hugging amongst Sophie and the twins, and Sophie really enjoyed feeding Jacob his meals with a spoon. Hopefully I can get my hands on a photo.
We're off to Montreal tomorrow evening for a long weekend. Will try to post from there.
