Everyone is so big and brushing their teeth on their own
Eleanor is starting to get the cause-and-effect relationship of the remote and the remote-controlled car
Now it’s a party!
Desmond trying to impress Dad with the aftermath of the peanut butter cup…
…so of course Ella has to get in on the “open your mouth and show dad for a picture” game
Peering out into the black evening, via the gross motor room at daycare
If her brother’s interest at this stage was dead-lifting paint cans, Eleanor likes to crawl and sit on things. Dad is fortunate for capturing this perfect “wipes rodeo” moment
Desmond coloring in his new pads from Christmas
Meanwhile wants to do whatever her brother is doing, so coloring it is
Getting the hang of it
Eleanor trying on brother’s shoes, though walking was a bit treacherous
Des excited to be at the model train show again, despite the bitterly cold wind chills outside
Ella finding entertainment elsewhere
A morning comprised mostly of pointing and “up please!”
Eleanor shocked to learn that N guage trains can range anywhere from 1:148 to 1:160 in scale.
Brushing teeth in the morning is now a family activity
Trying really hard to draw only one card at a time…
During his bed time story, Des jumps up and runs over to the door and–without any prior reference or coaching–points out his first inanimate object face 🙂
The doorknob and dad were apparently both equally impressed.
Desmond shoveling the front porch. Fatherly pride: he moved the chairs up so he could clear out the rest. Smart fella.
