Sitting Up

Still a little wobbly and leaned forward, but pretty fun anyway!

Grady's baptism 1-10-10

What a nice day! I didn't have a picture of Henry and Grady at the baptism, but here is one from Christmas day. Henry is looking at Grady and saying 'where can I get some of that hair?' Oh Henry.

My deep thinker

I had to get out Henry's new chair for a photo shoot. I bought it on sale for his 1st birthday, but how could I leave it in the basement until July????

At least he's honest...

Shhh...don't tell dad!

5 months

Mmmmm we tried rice cereal today! He wasn't supposed to have solids until 6mo, but he had been sleeping through the night before and lately waking multiple times to eat, so we thought we could give it a try. He seemed to catch on quickly and love it. Next is avocado!

Christmas Suit

Complete with a homemade tie! (You can't buy baby ties in December- you need get your outfit ready in October which I did not...) Note to self.
Our first Christmas as a family did leave us a little disappointed... We had to saw through some trees in the lane to get out of our house early on Christmas Eve when the power went out. It was out for 2.5 days. We stayed at Grandma's. Henry and I had really bad colds and Henry has a sore finger where I think I clipped his nail too close. The weather kept us from getting to Christmas parties and Caitlin's baptism. Maybe our 1st Easter will be better???
But- no more complaining! Because overall we were very blessed in 2009.
