Catching Up - Part II

Okay, these next pics were all taken in the month of February. Our February has been completely dominated by moving in, so I thought it appropriate to begin the blog with a photo of our moving truck. I'm sure you are as glad as we were that our movers arrived on time and didn't damage any of our things. And, as an added bonus, these guys are spiritually upstanding folks...as evidenced by the front of their truck. You know, come to think of it, nothing says "I love Jesus" like a big looming cross slapped across the grill of your 18-wheeler. Nevermind the fact that, if you zoom in, you can see that the bumper sticker off to the side says,"yes, this is my truck...no, I will not help you move."

Here's Henry in his new gameroom! The whole room is painted in this fun motif, and evidently the previous owners had 3 little boys who loved this room as much as the H-man does.

The baby's new favorite place...high chair. Why? Food. Lots and lots and lots of it...all the time...all day long...


This is the face I get if the food takes too long. It reminds me of Jared's face when he's playing video games...intense...and a little maniacal.


In light of my previous comments, this probably looks like he's calling for grub. But, the truth is, in this photo, he's already eaten...and he's playing a favorite game. It's the scream-as-loud-as-you-can-at-mommy game. He yells at the top of his lungs, I pretend to be scared (jump back, exclaim my fear), he yells again. Repeat. No really, it's fun.


What a cutie...I love this picture.


His bottom teeth showed up in this picture, so I included it in the mix. We've got 4 teeth now, and I've decided that Henry is assuredly related to sharks or vampires. I'll see if I can get a photo of his fang this week for your viewing enjoyment.


This is the "hand-in-the-cookie-jar" face. He makes it anytime he's doing something new that makes him feel big and bad and like he's getting away with something. I have a feeling I'll be seeing a lot more of it in coming months...


Playing with his Grampy. If you can read lips, you know already that they're saying "ooooooh"....."woooooh"....."woooooow"......."ooooooh." This seems to be Henry's version of "wow"...and he says it in the cutest, lowest, amazed-sounding way. If you do it back at him, the conversation and entertainment could go on for days.



So, there. We're all caught up to present-day. I haven't taken pictures of the house, because it's not all together yet. I'll throw some up when I make some real progress. Right now, the only room done is Henry's nursery!

Happy Humpday, everyone.

Time for Grammie Jeanne to post comment. I love that you have this blog as a way for family and friends (near and far)to keep up with your little family during the hectic life we all live. I wish when I was a stay at home mom there was this outlet that allows us a little glimpse in and allows mommy a little moment in her day to day life that isn't about diapers, feedings and singing lullabies to her little angel.
