Whiskers

Henry:  Where Daddy go?
Me:  Daddy went to shave his face.  He has to shave off his whiskers.
Henry:  Sometimes kitty cats have whiskers.
Me:  Yes, they do, that's right.
Henry:  But Daddy is not kitty cat.

Haha, good job recognizing that faulty logic!

Animal friends

Henry loves his stuffed animals right now!  He likes them to go where he goes and do what he does.  He calls them his friends and says that they are all friends...sometimes a particular animal misses another animal who is not in the same room as they are.

Bear and Woof (dog) are his favorites and sleep with him every night.  Sometimes he even wants a hug and kiss from Bear and Woof instead of Mommy or Daddy when he gets hurt!

Here he is feeding a few of his friends.

I guess when you're an only child you have to come up with playmates from somewhere.  We're just hoping that all of this affection transfers to his new sister when she joins us!

Brownies for breakfast

Me:  Henry, would you like oatmeal for breakfast?
Henry (looking at the brownies on the table that we had made to take to church):  No, just brownie.

Nice try, Bud :)

New bed!

Travis built Henry a toddler bed about a month ago.  Henry has done great with the transition to his big boy bed!  We've had some instances of him getting out to get toys or books, but overall it has gone much more smoothly than I expected.

He loves the bed, and still refers to it as "Henry new bed."

Making Saturday morning breakfast

Helping cook (aka taste) is one of Henry's favorite things to do!

Waiting for baby

Henry talks about the new baby all the time.  I'm glad he's so excited about it, but I'm not sure he really knows what he's in for when she does come!  These are a few of the things he's said lately about the baby.


Henry:  I hope baby come out soon.  I wait and wait and wait for baby come out!

Henry:  My baby is moving!
Me:  Are you hungry?  Is your stomach growling?
Henry:  No, baby in there!
