Henry’s diet is really starting to expand as he starts table food these days. Here’s an inventory of his menu, aside from all the jarred baby foods he eats, in no particular order.
We had a great time in Cleveland this past week. Leslie’s wedding was gorgeous and beautiful and made me cry, and the reception was a blast. Unfortunately, I had no camera so no photos to show of the handsome couple.
We wound up our week of fun with the drive back home on Sunday. We left Stow at 11:30 AM and got home at 12:30 AM. That’s right, folks, a thirteen hour trip. It should have been about an eight hour drive but we had to stop for Henro multiple times and the traffic was awful. We ended up getting off the highway and taking backroads through some of West Virginia and most of Virginia and Carolina. But we did eventually make it home, safe and sound!
Henry had his first haircut last week. He was a champ.
This video is long – eight minutes!
Now that you see how awesome Kim is, go patronize her at Lux Salon!
Henry’s putting together his first syllables, and it’s “dadada.” He loves his daddy.
Look at this adorable outfit on Henry. Those little shoes are just too much!
I realize it looks like he’s crawling in this photo, but he’s not. Not yet, anyway.
Henry gets excited when he learns he’ll be having his first fresh banana.
Henry draws names for the family Christmas gift exchange.
Henry turned 8 months old a week ago. He’s 21 pounds according to the bathroom scale. According to our in-home calculations, his body is 28 inches long and his noggin is 18 inches around. (We have another doctor’s visit in December for his nine month check-up.)
He’s got two fully sprouted teeth on his bottom jaw, and he’s cutting three more on the top right now. You should be able to see them in this close-up.
He’s sitting up like a champ, and has been learning how to go from laying down to sitting up all on his own. He’s desperately trying to learn how to crawl. I think it will happen any day now.
Here he is sporting his Cleveland Cavs jersey, thanks to Uncle Eric.
This past weekend Dave had to lower his crib as he looked like he might launch himself out. We usually let him play in his crib during the evenings – it’s a safe place to put him and he has a great time in there. Yesterday we had left the room and we could hear him happily squealing so we knew he was OK. The squealing increased (in a happy way, not a bad way) and so we came in to check. We found him woven through the crib slats attempting to get a toy that was outside his reach. And he was having a great time doing so!
Dave uploaded these last week, so here they are.
