Call Day #92, 1/24/12

 What do you do first thing in the morning?  Have breakfast?  Nope, dump all the bath toys out and climb in!

 We spent the morning at a friend's house playing.  Here are Eleanor and Leilani.

 Eleanor spent most of the morning behind this thing taking pictures of us and everything else.

 Claire wanted to check my blood pressure.  She has decent technique, don't you think?  (Not counting cuff placement--wouldn't fit adults anywhere other than the wrist.)

 This week we are reading a book in which the main characters have a snack of tea and bread with preserves.  I knew Eleanor would love to have a chance to drink tea, and she got to choose from our big selection.

 Tea, toast, and preserves.

 Which evolved into tea, milk, water, Tigger, and toast and preserves.

 The mug she picked seemed almost as big as her head.

 It was warm today!  We got to spend a little bit of time at the park.  They look like they're in jail wanting out, but they are actually offering food at a restaurant.

 This one climbed the stairs, went down the slide, and repeated for the whole time we were there.

 Flossing is now big at our house.  It is apparently best enjoyed "in the dentist's chair" as Claire is demonstrating lying on the bathroom floor.

 Our book of the week is set in Russia.  Eleanor colored and pasted these colorful onion domes like those on St. Basil's Cathedral.  The idea was to draw buildings underneath them to make a Russian skyline.  This is Eleanor's version done while I was putting Claire to bed.

And on the other side, drawings of Mommy and Eleanor.
