Eleanor and Henry celebrated Monkey’s birthday this weekend with a string trail. Everyone wrapped up a gift for Monkey, and Eleanor made two cards, and then She and Henry set up a string trail for Monkey to follow and find all her gifts. It was great fun, and Eleanor especially was very excited about it. Also this weekend, we took the kids to buy bikes – this summer’s big project will be learning to ride them! They were both pretty excited about the idea, so we took advantage of a rainy day to do the shopping. They each picked out the model they like best, Eleanor chose a purple bike with white tires, and Henry chose a green one with black tires. Can’t wait to see the two of them trying them out. Unfortunately, the rain didn’t let up all weekend we will have to wait for the first ride. On the plus side, all the rain allowed us to catch up on our movie watching – and we got to see Sing and Moana. Both Henry and Eleanor were scared during Moana, but at the end Henry immediately asked to see it again, and Eleanor put it up next to Frozen as one of her favorite movies. Go figure!
