After a few weeks of travel, we took a week off and relaxed at home.\u00a0 Eleanor and Henry got back into their sleep routines (mnostly…).\u00a0 Eleanor has been saying a lot more phrases lately, my favorite new one this week was when she said “Bye Bye\u00a0Dada” to me\u00a0– very sweet.\u00a0 She has also been doing some singing – she\u00a0sang along to an entire rendition of “Old MacDonald” on YouTube – we will have to catch her on video doing it.\u00a0 She knows almost all the words. Speaking of singing, Eleanor recreated her entire bedtime routing this week while putting Monkey down for a nap. She changed the diaper, turned on the white noise, turned on the heater, said goodnight to all the animal stickers on the wall, rocked Monkey in her arms while singing our bedtime song, and then put Monkey down in Henry’s crip with Henry’s sleepsack on. She just loves to do everything that Mom and Dad do!<\/p>\n

Henry has been getting very active with his hands.\u00a0 He now routinely grabs items both handing above him on the playmat, and also just sitting beside him.\u00a0 He also performed his first hand to hand transfer this week – very impressive.\u00a0\u00a0 Henry also went to his first music class this week – and Eleanor spent an hour in “sibling care” without anyone that she knew.\u00a0 Mom didn’t hear any screaming and the teacher didn’t report any trouble upon pickup :)<\/p>\n
