During breakfast, Claire dances to Eleanor's birthday card. We listened to the Tigger song repeatedly.
Check out what's for sale at Home Depot!
Watching the fire trucks do some kind of training in the Costco parking lot.
Learning to drink out of water fountains (and tall enough to do so!).
Play kitchen = Highlight of Costco trip!
Sharing a sample. Neither balked at the goat cheese that Erik and I both dislike.
For those of you who have asked how one brings groceries to the third floor with two kids in tow... Step 1: Unload kids and all groceries onto the porch.
Step 2: Bring groceries into stairwell and shut front door.
Step 3: Bring groceries to up two flights to landing outside our condo. (Since Eleanor wanted to unlock the door, this was accomplished with Claire in one arm until the door was open.) Step 4: Send kids inside and close door so Claire won't get out and fall down stairs. Step 5: Finish bringing groceries to landing. Step 6: Bring groceries from landing to kitchen. Step 7: Put away. (Step 8, usually done much later in the day: Clean up messes made while kids were unattended.)
Eleanor's curls post-nap.
Eleanor and Claire play "What's that lump on the bed?" and Claire finds Eleanor hiding under her cover.
Eleanor's room post-nap. Currently, we have a rule about not reading books til after she sleeps (because then she tends not to nap). Clearly, not observed today. Guess she figured I wouldn't notice?!
Claire eats mango at the park.
I can't tell you how many "flowers" she has picked for me lately. If you looked in my purse, jacket pockets, etc, you'd find handfuls that I've forgotten to clean out.
Spaghetti. Enjoyed much better when given in little bits on a fork that she can control.
Eleanor deciding which candy from her Easter basket to eat for dessert. This literally took her 20 minutes or so as she looked at, handled, and mulled over all the choices!
