Sept 10--Thursday

Today has been a nice down day. Not too much happening. Another family arrived, and now we have 13 kids at the hotel. And 6 are little girls 4-6 years of age. So Lucia is getting to know some new friends. Of course, we are still the only American family. But that is alright.
We went to Parque 93 after Silas's nap and then got an Oblea for a yummy snack. Several people have mentioned that Silas is looking so much bigger. It is hard for us to tell b/c we see him every day. But he is a little chunky guy.
In the mornings on some days, Lucia and I do "school". The science nerd comes out in me. And Lucia loves science too (one of her favorite shows is Sid the Science Kid). What fun! We have a kids book about the body that goes through each body system. It gives a lot of fun facts. Today we did the heart. Oh, here is a fun fact about the eye--did you know that you have microscopic eight-legged mites living on the base of your eyelashes? (they eat germs to keep our eyes protected). Yeh, nice.
