Henry's First Santa Photo

Henry rests up to prepare for his big photo with Santa!!

Henry did a great job sitting on Santa's lap for his photo.

Of course we had to take a family picture.
Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!!

So exciting!

I really had no intention of giving Henry a binky. At about 6 weeks of age, it was obvious that we needed something other than me! He would try to nurse just for comfort and get VERY upset when my milk would let down. So I gave in and gave him a binky with hopes that he would soon start sucking on his fingers instead. I must admit that I have even helped him practice sucking on his fingers. I just feel better knowing that his in charge instead of me sticking a plug in there. So the other day when I put him down for a nap and he refused the bink and took his thumb, I was elated! I also think it's so sweet looking. And yes, all you moms out there, I am very aware of the fact that I'm going to regret all of this in a couple years when I can't just throw away his thumb :)

The New Do

With a new hair stylist came a new cut. I think I really like the bangs. It's been 4 days and I'm still getting use to it.

Angel Face

Yet again, I am aware of the fact that I have mom goggles on, but I also know there can't be a sweeter face out there! Henry is blossoming into the most adorable little guy. His face is always full of smiles and his giggles are heart-warming.

More Cousin Time

Caleb and Gracie love the new mobile Henry. Caleb spent the morning pulling Henry around. He showed him is room, his toys, and his books. Caleb pulled Henry into the dining room with a stack of books on his tray and then sat and read to him. So sweet!

Undivided Attention!

Henry has become fasinated with sports on TV. I'm not a big fan of TV, so I try my best to distract him. As you can see, I'm not usually very successful.

That's Our Baby!

Henry turned 4 months old on Thursday! He is becoming more and more fun by the day. He smiles at everything. His laugh is yummy. He reaches for his toys and pulls them to his face. He has a lot to say, we just can't figure out what it is yet. He's starting to sit up. And he's waking up at 5am wanting to play. I don't mind so much since he's always wearing his beautiful smile! Most importantly, he's being very patient with his gimp mommy.

This is how Henry was taking his nap.
