This week Henry had his sleepover with Lala – he was a bit nervous at first, but ended up having a great time. They played games and made mac and cheese for dinner, and then had a waffle breakfast in the morning. Saturday was a bit busy, Henry had a friend’s birthday party and Eleanor had a playdate, and Sunday was a bit more low key with just some fun around the house and a park or two.
During the week, Mom and the kids hit a few museums – the children’s museum with a cool new Matchbox car exhibit, and then the Museum of Science and Industry, where they finally got to do the submarine tour. Henry was especially excited about this, and game me a several minute recap the next day of all the fun facts they learned. He couldn’t believe that all the people on the sub shared one bathroom and no showers! He was also surprised how small it seemed in side. He said, “you would think it would be really big from the outside, but it is actually pretty small on the inside”.
