Henry: King of the House

King Henry's big day came soon enough.

Breakfast of choice: Cocoa Puffs.

Morning entertainment: reading - and no one could tell him to stop and do his chores.

Lunch: Mac&Cheese and applesauce.
H: "That's my 'This is delicious' face."

Friend: Ethan from his Kindergarten class!

Outing: Museum of Science


Let's just say that it's kind of hard when your brother is the king and you AREN'T anymore.

Dinner: Grilled cheese sandwiches with tomato soup. 
"That's my 'I really like it' pose!"
"I actually don't put crackers in my soup for taste.  I put them in for imagination!"

Special treat: self serve frozen yogurt with LOTS of nasty gummy things on top!

I think Henry had a pretty good King of the House day.  It was interesting to see how he didn't rule quite as naturally as Ellis did.  Ellis was quick to say things like, "Well, I get to choose your computer game, because I'm the King of the House!"  That type of thing didn't even cross Henry's mind.  He kept asking what he should do for his extra chores, whether he could do 20 more minutes of computer time, etc.  Ellis, on the other hand, automatically assumed that the King would have no jobs and no limits for screen time!  So funny to see the difference between these two boys!

I think I would like to be in King Henry's domain better than King Ellis'. Sounds like either way the boys had very fun days, which is what it's all about, right? I guess King Dan day will have to wait until my next visit. In the meantime, you can have pleasant thoughts about our excursion to go swimming in the ocean.

I'm sorry but my favorite was the pictures of Ellis sad faces. A.) They're so funny. B.) You take pictures of him when he's making them.
