Two quick updates

First, a photo of Talia and me...



Just look at that nice, wide, round head!


Next, a going-to-bed quotation from Zeke:

Z.: Daddy, we're completely out of date.
(pause)
Z.: Daddy, do you know what "completely out of date" means?
Me: No.
Z.: It means, we ran out of raisins. We're completely out of raisins.

In other news, Zeke's second Christmas proved to be pretty much all about Thomas. Thomas trains, Thomas books, Thomas movies, and Thomas songs. We're all learning a lot about steam trains.

Today's news on the parenting front (it's gross)

Am I a bad parent for filming this instead of putting an immediate stop to it?

A mealtime exchange

Tonight at dinnertime...

Z.: Can I have a lollipop now?
H.: You can have a lollipop after dinner.
Z. (eats a few bites)
Z.: Can I have a lollipop now?
H.: After you finish your sweet potato.
(pause)
Z. (pointing) Mommy, you know, the lollipops are right in there.

Sly little fellow.
