Another of Lucas's early presents was from Marilu's parents. They got him a portable DVD player, which theoretically would make the flight down to Atlanta and the drive to Florida easier on him. As it turned out, Lucas is still not a big fan of TV and watching movies. I almost felt like a bad parent in the weeks leading up to the trip since we were TRYING to get him to watch TV, which is the complete opposite of what you normally do with kids, right? Anyway, the DVD was useful for me as I got to watch a couple of movies on the plane and in the hotel room so not all was lost. Plus, I'm sure he'll become more interested in videos pretty soon so it will come in handy for future trips. All of this talk leads to a picture of him watching an Elmo video at his new table.
And for those of you in sunnier climates, here's a couple of pictures from one of the crappier times we've had this winter, back on Dec 21. The first is a shot of our back deck and the latter is our front yard. Most of it melted while we were gone, but if the last few years have taught me anything (especially the 14 ft we got last year), Mother Nature is just biding her time.
Oh, what the heck, one more pudding smile for the road.

That's crazy all that snow!
One day Lucas will definitely be interested in what's showing on the DVD player. It's come in very handy on our trips and in the hotel.
