"o" is for octopus

i know, i know--i usually post on fridays and the tens of thousands of you reading this have spent the entire weekend wondering where i've been--i'm sorry!  not only was M still sick all this week as well as last, but B joined in too :(  so needless to say, it was a loooooong 11 (but who's counting?!) days in this house!

but don't you worry--we still celebrated "O" week in our usual fashion!  and the girls, who were finally on the mend by friday, did enjoy their octopus lunches--even though they had been eating like birds for the previous week or so

although M was thinking the apples were water (hey--not all water has to be blue--maybe it was SO clear it was...white?!) we decided that they were the sand in the water--b/c *clearly* the schools of fish swimming around the octopus and the strawberry "coral" were all in the water as well, right?!

thankfully everyone is healthy again and school and other activities have resumed--so don't be worrying about missing "P" week--i wouldn't dare!

happy lunching!
