Summer Days

I’ve been meaning to post more here. Every morning when I see Henry, it seems as if he’s grown a week older. Sometimes I catch myself looking forward to the next thing or his next milestone, but I always have to remember to just enjoy his little teeny existence and not to rush things (not that I have a choice in the matter anyways). He is very social now and loves to smile and giggle. It MELTS our hearts! Henry attended his first party on Saturday. Our friend’s son turned 2 and there was so many babies there, all born within weeks of Henry’s birthday. I never knew how massive our little Henry was until you sit him next to other babies. He still loves his swings and the mobile is his best friend.  He can watch it forever and he will let you know when it times out!

It’s been hard to find time to manage all of the pictures I’ve taken of him….dumping them onto my computer, sorting, uploading, backing up…and of course some photoshop enhancements. Just when I thought I had a good handle on them, I took a thousand more.  There needs to be more pictures of me with Henry (wink, wink Trevor). I’ve been making an effort to video record him every few days with some mini clips. Just hearing his cries change over the weeks is amazing and I never noticed that much until I heard him cry on his first week.

I remember the first weeks when Henry was born, Trevor and I thought we’d NEVER get out of the house. We truly believed that. I’m happy to say that we get out almost everyday. This past Friday, we took Henry out to the town center and hung out by the water fountain. It was a beautiful spring night.  Yesterday, we took a trip to Georgetown for some Gelato with Uncle Kyle.

Anyhow, I have tons more to talk about, but this single post has already taken me over 2 hours and 2 over-steeped teas between trying to soothe and take care of Henry.

It looks like Henry and I must’ve attended the same party. We are all pretty beat. Having time to do anything other than taking care of Henry and getting a decent meal together is a rarity.  Here I am. It’s almost 1:00 in the afternoon and I’m having to decide whether or not I want to try to finally brush my teeth or get pics off my camera and post on my blog. He’s due to eat in 10 minutes and luckily I made a huge pot of baked ziti that we can eat all day today.

Henry’s starting to really smile a lot and make little noises. He makes the cutest little “oh” ever and he repeats it over and over. He’s a different baby when night rolls around and he’s been keeping mom and dad up. Quite a handful, but worth every sleepless minute. Well, I’m off to brush my teeth and if there’s time, I may even brush my hair!

P.S. Something happened to my other posts when we updated on the server so those are gone, but there will be more.
