This video was submitted as an entry to the Sakura Bloom Triathalon contest at Adventures in Babywearing. Congratulations on your winning video, Leigh!

That ought to put things in perspective.

"Beatles 3000" was produced by the team at Scottgairdner.com.  I found it via the amazing blog Laughing Squid.
