Fall Weekend

The weather has started getting cool, just in time for the new school year. Paras is going to be in for a new routine, now that Sahana will be going to school with him and coming home at the same time (she was in full time until now, so he got all of the au pair's attention in the afternoon).

Paras' roster of activities is still full, though. He's continuing with Tae-kwon-do and swimming, and we are checking out gymnastics this week. He seems to be into jumping and tumbling, so maybe it'll be a good outlet. To be honest, Andy and I think he might be more on the artistic end of the spectrum, rather than the athletic one; here's a sample of his coloring, which is pretty good, in my opinion, for a kid who's not even four:



Sahana had a very tough last week at St. Rita's. She got sent home on Tuesday for a fever, which continued on Wednesday. Then, she sent everyone into panic Wednesday afternoon when she had a febrile seizure in the middle of Barnes and Noble. I wasn't there, but Andy and the au pair were and said it was terrifying. She had recovered by the time we got the urgent care, and we were told that this was not a long-term condition, but that she may be susceptible to more seizures during childhood. It's kind of scary, but we're glad that Sahana is now back to her old self, being very fussy and fighting with Paras.

We don't have big plans for this weekend, just getting stuff done at home. On a side note, please don't watch the movie The Lovely Bones. It's totally creepy (especially if you have kids), and it makes no sense. Just saying.
