Wake Up Ritual

When Henry wakes up in the morning we have typically the same routine. Gather Mr. Bear and blankie and any other "friends" from overnight. Then attempt to get them all into the kitchen to pick up the juice. Then depending on the time we either watch Mr. Rogers in our bed, or hang out on the sofa. The other morning Henry thought that we should linger while getting up. It took an hour for him to finally get off the couch.

Nap time has its own routine too. Whether Henry wakes up happy or upset a drink and snack usually follow. Today he walked around the kitchen with his sippy until he blurted out "crackers". So, even though it was close to lunch, we got the graham crackers. Henry hung out with all of his "friends" while he ate. He is pretty snuggly after waking up. I think that it is one of my favorite times with him.


Henry thought that one cracker per hand was better than just one.
