Do's and Don'ts

Don't let your child eat her dinner unattended



Do bathe your baby even if they scream the whole time

Do embrace your child's sense of style

Don't forget to wish your grandpa a happy birthday

Do do the hot dog dance with Mickey and friends on the table


Do use white noise to calm your baby

Eleanor actually made this discovery. We were in the kitchen getting dinner ready and I put Penelope in the bouncy seat and was just going to let her fuss until we were done, but Eleanor came along and turned on the big "Hawaiian Breeze" fan and sure enough it calmed her down right away and we were able to cook in peace -- Don't mind my dirty kitchen floor :)

Do let your child pretend she is a monkey and hang her upside down

Don't put a blue crayon in with your laundry, because it will get on everything while in the dryer!

Do let your child express their creativity

Do share your toys with your baby sister

Eleanor is so good at "playing" with Penelope. She always bring toys over to show her.



Do take lots of pictures of your baby because they change so much everyday!
