Going for the Gold!

The intense rains have kept us inside the past few days. For a kid like Lucas all this indoor time can be a challenge. In an effort to expend his boundless energy, we've set up obstacle courses for him through our little apartment.

The course usually goes something like this: Run around your tricycle, jump over the laundry basket, jump over the train tracks, and jump on Daddy lying in bed. So far, basket jumping is his favorite activity (see picture).

Anyone who watches Lucas will get caught up in the spirit and enthusiasm of this new sport.
