Ridiculous

So as you may have noticed, the eight month post is missing. Although I should say not from lack of effort. I had written the post on my blackberry back on the 15th and saved it. To my surprise when I logged in that evening to add the pictures to the post....it was NOT THERE...booooooo. So...things have been extremely hectic around here and the post has been missing. I should also say that since the last post.....Henri had a wonderful visit from his Aunt Andrea and her sister and brother-in-law. We all had a great time. We went to the Arch (Henri's first time since he was in the womb), we did the zoo....we went to the park...and the weather was gorgeous. On another not Henri has officially had his first cold....aaaaaaaaannnnndddd....he is not a fan. Henri is slowly but surly starting to outgrow his three month clothes and he and his daddy went shopping yesterday for some big boy six month clothes. I will close with some pictures and ask for a few prayers..... My dad's shoulder surgery went very well...but the healing process is going to be long and arduous...pray for him. Also, my grandpa has been in the hospital for almost a week now with CHF (congestive heart failure) and A-fib (and irregular heart beat that may require him being shocked out of it). Hope everyone is enjoying this amazing weather.

Baby's First Easter

Henri's first Easter has arrived! We have done a few photo shoots, but we wanted to add an excerpt from Henri's first Easter book, the real reason Easter is so important. Sometimes it's the simple childlike things that are most profound. "On that first Easter, Jesus' friends met and angel. He told them, "Jesus has risen! He is alive today!" His friends were very happy.



Henri's first bunny, and the best Easter basket Josh and I have ever had!

Happy St. Patrick's Day

The big boy is really getting good at sitting up with minimal assistance.



Smootches to all my lady friends.

Feet....it's what's for dinner

Henri has officially found his feet! I mean really found his feet. He started to play with them a few weeks ago......and his newest trick in the past few days.....eating his toes! Not only does he want to get them in his mouth, he then starts to giggle at himself for doing it. Henri is becoming very animated and starting to babble A LOT! Hopeful for some more warm weather so that we can get outside for some more great photo ops, but for now, here are a few bathtime shots.










Yum....feeeetttt!

Seven months and a shout out or two

First.....Happy Seven Months to our beautiful boy! Can't believe he is already over a half a year old.

Second......Shout out to my brother who is officially old today...you should be so lucky as to share your birthday with my son.

Third.....to my best friend and pseudo sister Andrea....happy birthday pretty girl. So sorry I couldn't be there to razzzzzz you for being old as hell. Happy 30th pretty girl...miss you.




Henri is getting much harder to entertain for these shots! Note the carrot face!



Sooo big.

March Madness

In honor of one of the coolest times a year for sports, we have posted a few march madness photos of our big sport! Enjoy.




Henri loves loves loves his Daddy. When he gets home, Henri is all smiles and mommy is no longer entertaining.



Ooooo, baby feet are still the cutest when they are almost seven months old.





This is what a baby looks like the first time they roll onto their belly....and to think, all it took was a plastic bear that lights up and plays music.

Spring has Swung

Hooray for some warmer sunny days! Henri and Mom have been chomping at the bit to get outside and the past couple of days have been our chance. We have made it to the zoo for the first time this year, and today Henri went to the park to swing for the first time. I was unsure of it, but as soon as he was in the swing, it was all smiles. I even got some giggles out of him. Thanks to our friend Tricia, we even got some video and pics of Mom and Henri together! Henri had his second to last RSV shot on Tuesday and he is definitely figuring the game out. He knows what is up as soon as he sees the nurse come in. On a bright note he was weighed and he was 12 pounds 14 ounces, so just a shy under 13 pounds for the big guy. Henri continues to improve with his solid food and for the first time on Tuesday he hit a BIG BIG milestone. Henri rolled over from his back to his stomach for the first time, and second, and third, and fourth! He is really loving that he is a little more mobile at this point. It's really great to see him roll to his belly, and then to his back again to reach a toy! All in all Henri is doing great and can't wait for more consistently warm days!




A not so often pic of Mom and Henri!



Love my boy, makes me look semi-decent in this photo.



Swinging for the first time ever!



Happy happy swinging baby!
