It Was Just a Snorkel

This was Jacob's response when I asked if he needed to go to the bathroom. I couldn't stop laughing, so now Jacob says "it was just a snorkel" everytime he farts. We've created a monster.

We had a visit this weekend from Greg, who was so bereft at being abandoned to Florida by Jo and Ben that he had to come join our chaos instead.

The kids' activities have ramped up since our return from holidays. Playball on Mondays, gymnastics on Tuesdays and swimming lessons on Wednesdays. Winter has returned in full force, so at least they're getting some indoor exercise. We've also been hibernating, watching movies. We're in the middle of Fly Away Home and a few days ago the kids were completely riveted by the Fox and the Hound. The only thing we like more than penguins around here is foxes. Toy Story 3 was also a big hit.

On the adult movie front, we've seen all 10 best picture nominees and most of the other major nominees, so I'll do an Oscar post between now and Sunday.

My running is still progressing - haven't missed a scheduled run yet.
