Papa!

Eleanor and Henry capped off a fun week with a visit from Papa! They were both super excited to have him in town, and wasted no time asking for bucket rides :) Henry graciously gave up his room and had sleepovers with Eleanor and Mom and Dad – including sleeping in the top bunk for the first time. He was pretty excited, although he woke up around 5 and had a little trouble coming down the ladder on the way into Mom and Dad’s room. On Saturday we tried out a new create your own pizza place for dinner, which the kids really liked. We were also lucky to get some warm weather, so we hit some parks on both Saturday and Sunday. We also had a fun photo shoot on Saturday with one of Eleanor’s friend’s mom. She was doing a series on kids and their lovies, and wanted to document Eleanor and Monkey. Can’t wait to see how they turned out!

Also this week, we celebrated Eleanor’s half birthday in school with her class. Henry got to come too, and we brought a treat to share with everyone and read a story that Eleanor picked out from home. She really wanted to do Frozen, but it was a little long, so her settled on her second choice, Hermelin, about a mouse detective.
