Grandma and Grandpa popped in for a quick visit this week – and brought with them some Christmas presents that we left at their house – so for Henry and Eleanor it was like Christmas all over again. They were super excited to play with Grandma and Grandpa, and also to rediscover the new toys.
We also got our kitchen table this week, and have been enjoying meals at a regular sized table. Henry and Eleanor weren’t convinced at fist, but Mom and Dad love it. Henry had a great week with the potty – he only had a couple of accidents all week including some days out of the house. Eleanor has been doing great at night as well, with no accidents this week, so hopefully we have turned the corner on all things potty related. At swim class this week, Henry surprised me by asking to do the underwater dip again – usually I tell him we are going to do it and he gets sad and says no, but this week there were no complaints and after he asked to do it again. I’ll be curious to see if that holds up next week. We rounded out the week with some fun science experiments in the kitchen, food coloring and water on Saturday and corn starch slime on Sunday, both of which were hits. We also had some great snow to play in on Sunday morning.
