Call Day #134, 10/16/15

Eleanor was 7 and a half years old yesterday. She was excited to be measured and see how much she's grown since her birthday.

Nanny came over to take the girls for their French and Art lessons at her house. She brought warm challah bread. Oliver called it "hello bread." The girls each got something to show for the picture. Eleanor had practiced one of their art concepts and French on her paper. Claire made an envelope with a drawing for Nanny and Papa.

After the girls left, Oliver and I got ready for our errands. He wanted to wear these red socks "pulled all the way up like soccer socks."

He wanted to take his stroller to Walmart.

Checking out the underwear display. He is happily sitting on the potty these days. Still working on anything beyond sitting.

We went to a toy store to buy a present for an upcoming birthday party. Oliver played with trains.

After nap and an early dinner, we made a trip to the library. Claire sat down and started reading to Oliver before she had even finished finding books to check out. Eager to read!

A quick visit to get yogurt before shepherding group at church. Some sort of ice cream celebration is a half birthday tradition the kids look forward to.
