Trying my best.

"I do! I do!"

 A few things Henry has been saying or enjoying lately:
  1. count "one, two, thwee"
  2. He loves to answer "I do, I do!" whenever I ask if anyone wants to eat breakfast/ go for a walk/ read a book/ etc.  There is usually a happy dance that accompanies this!
  3. "I know! I know!"  When Henry had an idea for a book tonight, he prefaced it with "I know!" instead of just thrusting the book into my face.  It was adorable.
  4. Nap time cooperation!  In the bed!  For many months, Henry would only reliably fall asleep at nap time in the car seat or the stroller (and occasionally in the Ergo or my lap)  Now, he actually says "bed!" when he gets sleepy at nap time and we nurse in the big bed until he falls asleep and then I actually have a good 1- 1 1/2 hours of relatively quiet time.  Evie and I usually snuggle, read books, do arts and crafts, or watch a movie.  
Henry also loves to help bring Evelyn to preschool and pick her up.  He gets very excited when she shows off her projects.  Recently, she brought home a bag of veggies and sang a vegetable soup song and Henry exclaimed "oh, wow!"  For her part, Evelyn shows great enthusiasm when Henry shows off his hand stamp from gymnastics class.  It's very sweet.
