I owed mom some good pics of her and Henry, so here they are!



And also a video of reading with grandpa!

Henry's First Easter

The weekend before Easter, Henry and I went over to Darrow and Tera's to dye Easter eggs with Mason. It was a lot of fun, Mason got a kick out of the decorated eggs, but quickly discovered that, unfortunately, they are a tad fragile. After cracking a few together and hearing one roll down the stairs, we declared him 'done'. :)



Mason is showing cousin Henry his Cars eggs.

The next weekend we enjoyed a fun Easter day at Ann's house. Henry was in a super good mood for the first half of the day, but it quickly spiraled downhill when his lack of sleep the night before caught up with him.

Not a fan of the bunny ears...

Hanging with uncle Grant!



I forgot to get a good picture of Henry's Easter outfit, I love the little duck shoes! :D

Two Months Old!

On April Fool's Day, little Henry turned 2 months old. Its amazing to realize that much time has gone by already, but is also very obvious in how much he has grown. Henry is now up to 8lbs 4oz which is quite a difference from the 4lbs 15oz he was born at. His skinny little legs are finally starting to get the typical 'baby chub' look and his cheeks are starting to fill out.

From head to toe, here's what Henry likes about month 2:

- I'm starting to grow back my hair on the top of my head, it's still coming in dark brown and it looks like I might have a widow's peak like my grandpa George.
- My eyesight is getting better and the toys that dangle above me are becoming more interesting to watch.
- I just started smiling at people, but you have to catch me in the right mood. Otherwise I'm pretty good at wrinkling my forehead and have perfected my 'concerned' look.
- I love to blow spit bubbles and mom started keeping me in bibs to catch all my drool.
- I'm not 'cooing' yet, but I do like to grunt.
- My neck is getting stronger everyday, I like to push back from mommy or daddy's shoulder so I can look up at them. And when I'm on my tummy, I can pick up my head long enough to move it to the other side.
- My hands have to be free, I won't put up with them being covered by blankets. I'm very expressive with my long fingers and I've overheard mom tease me about them looking like "jazz hands".
- My tummy is finally getting to be round, I eat very well and sleep at least 3-4 hours between feedings (most nights), which I can tell mommy really appreciates.
- I love to swing and mommy loves to get things done while I swing.
- I also love to lay on my back and kick my legs, I've been thinking about rolling over, but I always get caught up on that one arm!

Smiles abound!

Henry has just started smiling and one of his favorite things to smile at is silly Grandpa George! Recently retired Grandpa loves to stop by on week days to get his 'Henry fix' and here he is entertaining Henry with his best 'Superman vs Mild-Mannered Grandpa' impression.

So Much Love

Dad

Uncle Grant

Great-Grandma Nanoo

Grandma Ann
And Grandpa George

Some of the many people who love little Henry. I'm also realizing that I need more recent pictures of my mom!

Wii Love to play!

Couldn't resist posting these pictures of Henry joining us in some fun Wii games!

Best Friends in the Making!

Sam and Jack came over to hang out the other night and we couldn't resist getting pictures of Henry and Ajax side by side for a size comparison. Ajax is 3 weeks younger than Henry, but consistently is a good 2 pounds heavier. Sam had gotten 2 pairs of the same outfit, one in newborn size which no longer fit Jack, so she had given it to Henry to wear. we decided the matching outfits would make the picture!



we were trying to get a good shot of their feet and how much bigger Jack's are!



I love this photo, it looks like Jack is yelling at Henry. "Hey now, let me show you how it's done!"


I'm sure the two of them will get a kick out of these videos when they are older.
