There are a few things I'd like to remember about this day:
* Jack has taken to using the colloquial speech of his people. However, he hasn't figured out exactly how to use it in context. Case in point: "It's as quiet as a mouse in here." or "Ellie, you're a chicken!" and they start acting like chickens... Jack: Knock knock? Parent: Who's there? Jack (looks around the room): Chair. Parent: Chair who? Jack: (repeats "chair" three times, just like the "banana" knock knock joke) finally, who's there. Jack, looks around: "Ceiling you glad I didn't say chair." Laughs.
* Robbie sincerely took to crawling today. He has been rolling and inching around, getting on all fours and scooting, but today, he became a room-t0-room mommy hunter. And he fell off the bed...again. When am I going to figure out that the edge is fascinating to him? I'm a bad mom.
* Neither Ellie nor Robbie napped today. Oh sure, Robbie took two, 15-minute naps, but does that really count? All day crying sorely tested my ability to love my babies. I got absolutely nothing done except...
* Ran 3 miles. Three miles used to be my every day run. Now, it's an accomplishment. I've gone up to four, but I'm now feeling good running 3 miles a couple times a week. I will absolutely be ready for the five-mile run on March 14. Now, if I could just stay away from sweets, I have a shot at losing baby weight.
* Hugh Jackman is not only tall and handsome, he's hysterical. Case in point, see this.
* I am very, very, very sad, no destitute over the death of newspapers. I can't go into it now. I have too many words saved up on the topic. Your Kindle is not going to feel or look like paper I don't care how portable it is. Government needs the Fourth Estate. Maybe I'm just sad that the thing I love to do the most aside from my children won't be there when I'm ready to go back. Sad, sad, sad!!!

Newspapers are not dead.
HEY! It let me comment this time! Now I need to think of something better to say.
You are not a bad mom. Brooklyn fell of the bed this week as well, luckily missing the open drawer next to the bed. Even though the guilt was there I remembered something Shae told me after Aiden had rolled down a flight of stairs. "Babies bounce." It is true, when I think about it what baby hasn't fallen off a bed, the couch, changing table... So remember you are a wonderful mom. Hope you have a great day.
I agree, Hugh Jackman is tall, handsome, and he has the legs of a showgirl.
