Ever since Anita introduced us to the TV series LOST (she sent us the first season on DVD for Christmas), Jason and I have spent our few moments each night without children watching it. As soon as Ben and Janae are in bed, we run downstairs and hit PLAY on the DVD player (Jason gets it all set up ahead of time).
We finished the first season in about three weeks--then for Valentine's Day I "surprised" Jason with season 2, while he just "happened" to have bought me season 3 (so unromantic, I know). Luckily we both have spring birthdays (don't tell Jason, but season 4 is already in the mail--it will definitely be here in time for his big day, if not before, depending on when we finish season 3). As you must have guessed by now, we are slightly OBSESSED. (But at least we are obsessed together!)
This means, of course, that all of the other things we usually try to accomplish in those late-night hours are being left undone. The housework has suffered. Alaina has noticed a decrease in the quality of her one-on-one time. The novels piled up on our bed-side tables are collecting dust. Even the blog is getting neglected.
So, the posts on Benjamin winning two gold medals for reading,
Janae being expelled from ballet class (and joining up with a band of pirates),
and Alaina getting her first taste of rice cereal
. . . are just going to have to wait. The kids are on their way upstairs, so you know what that means!

Whose eye was that? I did notice that it wasn't too bloodshot though. Your children really don't look neglected yet. Happy LOST watching :0)
