Colors and Forts

I have loved the fall colors this year. Through most of the month of October, it looked like the colors weren't going to be anything special. Then all the sudden around the beginning of November we got the show. There have been some very brilliant reds and yellows. I love it! This bradford pear tree is outside of our front door. No matter the season, it's always so pretty.

Henry has been enjoying playing with all the fallen leaves and sticks. He is such a boy! Whenever we are outside, he always has to be carrying a stick.

Mike and Henry enjoy their play time together. Lately, they have been building forts together. Henry gets so excited. As soon as the blankets are placed, Henry shreeks and starts to crawl through.

Silly Morning

Henry was being particularly cute and silly yesterday morning. He was excited about his new water bottle that we got over the weekend.

Henry, the Green...Lizard?

I've never seen a 1 year old so excited about a Halloween costume! From the day Emily tried this on him at her house {it was Caleb's costume}, he's been crazy about wearing this around the house. Henry was a very cute...dinosaur? We never really knew what to call him. I referred to him as an aggressive green reptile.

He had a lot of fun with his friends at the ward Halloween party. He was especially intrigued by this adorable little witch,

Henry's getting ready to go to the OCP fall fest. He had a good time dancing and hanging out with friends.

It was very dark out and I didn't do a very good job aiming for this picture. I thought it was still blog-worthy :)

Ashley Anderson Photography

Ashley has created a beautiful photography blog. She came down this week for a quick visit and some pictures. Check out the great photos of my sister's family. I'm excited to see what she got of Henry. I'll post some as soon as I have them.

Building a Tower

Henry has started to stack everything. He really likes to stack cups. Here he is helping Daddy build a tower. Make sure you turn your volume up for this video, Henry has the greatest chipmunk chuckle :)

Never in a million years...

...would I have thought this would ever happen! Henry was eating his lunch today and I was sitting beside him at the table working on the laptop. All the sudden I heard some strange breathing and I look over and Henry was OUT! He had probably been asleep for a minute or so. I was able to transfer him to his bed without him even waking up. It was too cute :)
