Do you mind getting it out of my driveway?

I think my kids are doomed to be retro in a way that is not yet cool.  Some time in the future, the rest of the kids will catch up with them, but for now they are retro before their time. 

On our recent drive to Michigan, we listened to several Bill Cosby CDs.  The result?  Matthew now walks around saying "Hey, hey, hey!" like Fat Albert and Cameron keeps trying, unsuccessfully, to explain to other kids how funny the Noah and the Ark pieces are.  "So the neighbor says, 'Hey, what is that?' and Noah says, 'It's an ark!'  Then the neighbor says, 'What's it for?' and Noah says, 'I'll give you a hint.  How long can you tread water?'"  Cameron laughs uproariously and the other kid backs away, looking confused.

Tadpole update:  Pluto (as he has now been named) has teeny-tiny feet!
