adventures with henry and eleanor

i am completely in love with my mornings with these two
we have so much fun
walking back and forth from the school for drop off and pick up
occasionally going  on runs in the stroller
they're both pretty easy going and i am amazed how much easier two are than three
last week we went to lunch with natalie, the library and the park
it is awesome!
today i took some pictures of each of them as we played on my bed
henry was busy playing with an old cell phone 
and eating a pita but he gave me some cute smiles anyway

 and yes, his head injury did get re-injured
olive was trying to help him down the stairs and he bonked it....
 i love his thighs so much

 he also somehow bonked his head this morning so it was a little red
this boy......he's all boy that's for sure
he's such a bruiser



 he thinks i'm funny 
 eleanor came in all dressed up with a purse full of toys
and started brushing her hair
which never goes that well since it's so curly...
 she is such a cute girl
she loves her mama time in the morning
especially while henry naps
 putting on her pretend lipstick


 she brought me a repunzel dress and crown and wanted me to dress up
she also gave me some play high heels which i had to decline
but somehow i squeezed in to this dress-up
she loved it
 she wanted us to both wear them to pick olive up from kindergarten but 
she settled for just wearing hers because i wasn't brave enough to keep mine on
we really have the best time
i think eleanor is really enjoying her alone time with me
and then she has fun with olive once she's home, too
being a mom is the best

so fun! I am excited to have some special time with Alex too. He is a little lost without Daphne around but I think after a while he'll start to enjoy it.
