On Thursday Lindsey got a black eye at preschool. One of her friends headbutted her. Apparently she cried for quite a while, but has since forgotten about it. I'm glad she hasn't looked too closely in the mirror! It is really dark purple now with some yellow.
So, now begins my blog of a random Friday in our lives. After Kara takes her nap at 12:30, Spencer practises his reading with me, then he watches his cartoon. After that, Lindsey takes her nap. Since Spencer is scared of being alone, he is usually my shadow for about the next hour or so until Miranda and Derek come home. On this particular Friday he fell asleep on the heater vent. (It's his new favorite place-- since all he wants to eat is fruit and yogurt, he has a serious lack of body fat -- so he is always cold-- and he hates wearing socks, so that doesn't help either). This Friday, he was pretty worn down because he had chess club at 7:15 in the morning, so he had to get up an hour earlier.
I was enjoying my unexpected peaceful hour, when I heard Spencer come into the computer room. He plopped himself on the chair at my desk and actually fell into a deep sleep in this position!
Anyway, later that afternoon I took these pictures of the kids doing their thing sometime before dinner. The boys were playing chess...
Kara was climbing anything and everything in sight. ( Notice the kitchen chair pulled as far from the table as possible. She will climb onto them the moment they are near the table to get onto the table and scavenge for food- even if someone is still sitting on them).
Lindsey was playing with the magnets. I think she was trying to make a princess castle.
Miranda was making a diorama (?) for a book report for school. Of course, the book was about a dog.
