Julian is home sick from school. We went to the doctor yesterday, and they said he has a virus - close to the flu, but not actually the flu bug - parainfluenza. Poor thing. The expert opinion is that he is very contagious and needs to stay home. Unfortunately, this means I could not go with Kathryn and her class to see "Nemo on Ice" today. Julian slept until 8:30 this morning, which I think might be a record. I can't remember another time when he slept that late. Anyway, the upside is he gets to eat in front of the TV instead of at the table. I recorded Shrek the Halls last night, which he is watching in this picture. He really liked it. Next was How the Grinch Stole Christmas, which somehow he has not yet seen! He ran and grabbed his book of it and compared the pages of the book to the movie. So smart! I guess it's important to learn early on that the movie is never as good as the book.
Lucy is also a big fan of the kids eating in the living room. Pan out and you see she is just waiting for him to drop something, although she is careful to not actually make eye contact. She avoids eye contact at all costs - scared she will be told to "go lay down", which is what happens normally when we are eating. Pet peeve - staring pets while I'm eating!
She is sweet though. Even here - I was on the floor beside her calling her name - I could not get her to look at me while Julian was eating! So funny.
