Obviously....

Sorry it has been a while, what can I say, everything and nothing happens at the same time.

Jaina and I are both finally feeling better after getting what seems like the nastiest cold on the planet. Mine started over the weekend, but I kept trying to convince myself that it was allergies. Finally, after speaking with my mother, she convinced me that just by the sound of my voice, she could tell it was a cold. Eerie.

So, yesterday, J and I spent the day at home, trying to rest. I say trying lightly, because although I would have been more than eager to rest, sleep, and watch movies all day, 3 -year olds are not so willing to be, how do you say it, lazy.

So, in the afternoon, we finally had to get out of the house. We went to the park, just to run off some energy. And then we went to the store. And then we went inside and played some more.

I was halfway tempted to take another day off today, just to relax from yesterday. But, we both went back to work, day care, and school today.

However, I have a slightly humerous story about last night. Jaina and I were playing Wii (which is a miracle in itself, but since Mike was at a golf meet, we actually got a turn :)) Jaina settled on playing golf, and she schooled me. For some reason (I am blaming the cold medicine instead of the sheer lack of talent), she beat me up. She must have some secret golf skills that this family has not heard of.

Anyway, back to the real story. On the second hole, I could not get the ball into the hole. It got to the point that the screen said "Give Up", and automatically added 5 points. I turned to Jaina and said, "Man, Jaina, Mommy can't get it in the hole!"

She looks at me with her big brown eyes and says, "Obviously, Mom."

Really?!? Sarcasm at 3? What do I get to look forward to next year?
