Eleanor and Henry had a blast this week celebrating Lala’s birthday. Eleanor and Henry snuck over to Lala’s house during the day and decorated it with balloons, confetti and streamers (and had some tasty treats too!). Later that day, Lala came over and celebrated with Eleanor and Henry at home. Lala donned the birthday glasses and they enjoyed a celebratory cupcake. The decorations back at Lala’s house were supposed to remain a surprise, but both Henry and Eleanor were unable to contain themselves and spilled the beans.
This week was spirit week for Eleanor at school – she declined to participate in the first two days (pajama day and sports day), but nailed hat day (although she wears her monkey hat most days), got really excited about crazy hair day, and was all blue for favorite color day. Eleanor also had her first playdate with a friend from jk this week, which was a fun outing that Henry got to join. We also benefitted from some spectacular fall weather this week, and got in lots of park time.
