A few weeks ago Beau got strep throat. He was grumpy and miserable, and then got over it so I could take care of Jacob, who caught it and the grumpy-miserableness that went with it. So they watched a million movies and when they got bored of that one time, I painted their faces at Bekah's suggestion. Jacob looked like this for days - not the flames, but the expression. He doesn't just get sick, he gets angry that his body could so abruptly betray and hurt him.

Bekah was obsessed with her Lalaloopsy doll at the time. I think she's moved on to her new stuffed kitty, but I never really know. First she had me paint her whole fact to look like Lalaloopsy. I even painted big black buttons on top of her eyes. She looked creepy. So she washed it off and just kept the cheeks.

The heroic, yet humble Beau...

...Who becomes the devious heroic Beau when he gets a dinosaur and flames on his arms.

Marianne joined the fun. I had an extra set of paints that fell to the floor while I was painting Jacob's flames, and Marianne just helped herself. Yum. Why not...

Even with a messy face I could just eat her up!

Did you know that she's best friends with her cousin Rachel? Here they are on a different day (before the sickness).
