Brrrrr!!!!

I don't know what it's like in your area of the world - but IT'S COLD here!! We are watching the Green Bay/New York game, and it's -2 F there, and we aren't too much behind them. Glad we are indoors with heat!!

Now, for the "goings-on" of the weekend - we went to the games in Sargent Friday night, and had a good time watching all of the teams win. Saturday we spent at home, catching up on bills, laundry, and naps! :) Alex was still feeling a bit crummy from his infection, so it was probably best that we stayed in.


Today we finished up on laundry (and naps!), and Alex is feeling MUCH better. He took about a 3 1/2 hour nap this afternoon - it's been a LONG time since he slept that long! It was his only nap for the day, so I guess it's just what his body needed.
Tonight for supper Chef Andy decided to prepare fajitas. We made them pretty mild so Alex could have some too. Recently we've noticed that he doesn't care to eat much meat - chicken, beef, fish, pork - anything! He will eat a hot dog (and we can all debate on the category of hot dogs - whether they are meat or not).....but he will eat anything fruit and veggie! Last night for supper, he ate some cucumbers, tomatoes, green beans, applesauce, and mashed potatoes. But no meat. Tonight it was the peppers and onions from the fajitas, some bread, applesauce, and some rice. But from the picture you can see that the meat was left alone.....

Alex also fell off of one of his toys today and got quite the goosegg on his forehead. It's right by the hairline, almost directly between the eyes. Here's the best shot we could get of it.....

Hope everyone has a great week - and for you "experienced" parents out there (or anyone else who wants to comment) - is this "no meat" just another one of those phases? I think that he will be disowned by his father if he doesn't eat at least beef........ :)

At least it's just a "no meat" phase and not a no food phase that Steven went through! Try some Graduates from the store. Steven seemed to eat those when he wouldn't eat anything else! Now, if we could only get him to eat some veggies! What's your green bean and cucumber secret?

I agree with Claudia. He will move onto another phase pretty soon. As to weather, you probably don't want to hear this. It is somewhere in the low 80's where we're at today (Tortola.) We sent Christine an e-mail on Friday, but it came back as undeliverable, so I guess I brought the wrong address. Send us something to our centurytel account, and we'll be able to reply. Love you guys!
