Stairs!

H loves climbing up our bedroom stairs. He does it only when he knows we are there watching him, either because he knows he shouldn't do it alone, or he loves the audience, I'm not sure which...

Happy 4th - celebrate with a new deck!

We finished our deck just in time for the 4th. Henry was a big help - mainly because he was a good sport and took long naps or let us work while he entertained himself. Hopefully he gets as much joy out of the deck as I know I'm going to.

Duluth!

Henry is getting there with walking, but he still thinks that crawling is the quickest way to go. He has a new favorite word - ball. He says Daddy all of the time, but rarely says Momma. I find it interesting (?) that he prefers to say ball over momma, but I guess sometimes I can play second fiddle.




We had our first trip up to Duluth this past weekend. He didn't seem to like the cold water of Lake Superior too much, but the sand was interesting, especially since he could eat it.

And we visiting Tierney for her high school graduation. It was a lot of fun to go on our first "road trip" even if it was only 3 hours away. Henry thought it was a lot of fun when Dad rode in the backseat with him and entertained him.

Messy mealtime

He does a pretty good job, but as you can see he gets a little all over the place.

He's also walking across about half the living room now.

He's walking...

Our boy is walking. He started about a week ago taking his first steps - typically into the arms of either me or Jeff. What a cutie. He gets a big kick out of himself and thinks he's a big boy like his buddies at daycare. He's sleeping on a big boy mat at daycare and isn't in the crib anymore. Our boy is growing up so fast...

Shake it Baby!

Henry will "shake it" if you tell him too. He loves to dance!

It's finally spring

H loves his new Twins hat and his wagon.
