Park Place

Jenna posted on her blog (click here) about running in a race last weekend (see winning photo above and with the second-place finisher below). Someone commented on her blog: "That is so awesome! And winning with a baby propped on your hip. That says it all. You are AMAZING!"

Which was a fitting lead-in to a New Yorker cartoon that her mother-in-law, Lynette Jensen, forwarded along, thinking it would make for a great addition to "Carter's Revenge."

And here's what Carter would be thinking:

• "Mom, when you said the phrase 'hip-hugger,' I didn't think you meant me."
• "Compared to that dog, I'm kept on a real short leash."
• "I must be flying in this run around the park -- my feet haven't hit the ground once yet."
• "I promise I will never cry again when you try to put me in the jogging stroller!"
• "Hey, I feel more like a runner's accessory than a baby here!"
• "Um, Mom? If you learn to cross the finish line sideways — I WIN!" (from Mitch)
