Happy Halloween!

Eleanor maximized her costume time this week by participating in two Halloween parties, and Halloween is still coming up tomorrow!  She dressed up as a monkey, a costume that she choose herself.  While walking down the aisle at target, Eleanor got very excited pointing and making monkey sounds when she saw the costume on the shelf.  A couple of her friends from music class also dressed up as monkeys, making for some fun pictures.  Eleanor completed the monkey costume at the party on Sunday by picking up two cymbals.  If only she had a box to hop out of :)    In a notable first this week, Eleanor can now stack four blocks on top of each other.  Her previous best was two, and mostly by accident.  Now she is interested in trying to build towers as well as knock them down.  While playing with our neighbor Zack, Eleanor watched him “march” and has picked that up.  I even caught her “high stepping”
