week 22

Here's a couple of pictures of week 22. As you can see, Henry was in a very good mood last night.He's also started to do the toe grab thing more consistently in addition to acting more interested in kind of moving around.
Here is a pretty funny blog post from Matt and Kathy about the two boys.

The plastic explosion.

We really like to think of ourselves as people who don't have a lot of stuff. Take, for example this first picture of our living room taken a couple of years ago after we painted the walls.
But over the last 5 months our house has been gradually taken over by plastic stuff. Which is the other thing that's kind of funny. We thought that we wouldn't be 'those' parents with all the plastic toys. Have a look at the second picture. I took this picture today of the same corner of our living room. Oh and somewhere in this sea of plastic hides a 5-month old boy. Can you find him?
To our defense, some of this plastic explosion exists to entertain the 13-month old Levi that spends about half of his week here.

Relaxing weekend

We've had a nice relaxing weekend so far. Not much going on and the weather is cool so we're staying inside more. Henry found his louder voice this weekend and really squeals now. It's hard to tell right now when he's happy and when he's upset. Here are two pictures from this weekend. Henry loves to touch Zoe and watch her too. I think Zoe feels the same way!



Henry is wearing a Winnie the Pooh outfit (thanks Levi!)and the ears were too cute so I had to document the occasion.

week 21

The past week hasn't been the best for Henry. We think he's teething or at least the teeth are moving and causing pain. At least we're hoping that's why he's drooling a ton, pulling on his ears, along with other typical signs of teething. He's a trooper though and is in a good mood most of the time.

Two sleepy boys in a stroller

So, typically Henry falls asleep on stroller rides but today Levi (Matt and Kathy's son) fell asleep too. They were just too cute all bundled up and in the double stroller together that I had to take a picture.

Bouncing Baby Boy

Henry is starting to like spending some time "working out" in his jumper. He bounces and spins and mainly enjoys looking around the house from a new perspective.

week 20

I took this picture on Thursday but forgot to post it. Not much new--more smiles, giggles, funny faces and rolling from side to side a lot. He finally went in for his 4 month appointment. All was fine and he's a healthy 16 lbs. 8 oz and 25.5 inches long.
