Dancin' and Singin'

Both Micah and Jacob like to sing. This is a cute video of them singing and dancing to Old MacDonald on the laptop. Of course, Jacob get distracted when he tries to ham it up :-) They must have spent 30 minutes just doing this on Saturday morning.

We had a good, but busy week. Micah's been out of school for teacher inservice and he's also had a fever for several days with no other symptoms. I don't want to say it's "flu" but it looks like that might be it. At least it's mild, if it is. We've all been dragging these last few days except for Jacob who seems to be in great spirits! We've all had our flu shots so hopefully that will lessen the impact. He has a dr. appt today to find out.

Micah's teacher had wonderful things to say about him at the parent-teacher conference last week. She pointed out that he is very into the art station and that he has made some new friends in class. We got a book from the library on how to draw dinosaurs and had a good time working on that this weekend.

Jacob gave me a "heart attack" this weekend, getting a mouthful of cat food! He had wandered into the kitchen, pulled back the chair I had blocking the door to the cat's food and ran in there. I found him with both hands filled with crunchies, looking like a chipmunk. And wouldn't you know, I had to pry every last bit of that cat food out of his mouth! He was hanging on for dear life. Anyway, I called poison control for peace of mind and was told that although cat food isn't FDA approved for human consumption, he probably wasn't going to have any trouble. Of course, he's fine, although his breath smelled horrible all day. But I'm glad we opted to put all of the chemicals up high. Even with hawk-eyes, it's hard to keep track of him every second.

Dan's show goes up this weekend so please think of him. He is working a lot trying to bring it together and I think it'll be a great one. It's three one-acts by Horton Foote, all different but related by a theme of dancing.
