Funny Face

Posted on Friday, June 18th, 2010 at 8:00 am

As Henry has become more expressive we’ve started catching him giving looks that we’ve never seen before. Occasionally we’ll catch it on camera.

If you had the camera pointed at you as much as I do, you'd get caught of guard too.

Sitting Up in the Tub

Henry is sitting up in the tub now

Henry thinks bath time is more fun when he's not the only one getting wet.

Bath time has a new twist these days, Henry is sitting up in the tub on his own. He’s still a little unstable so my lifeguarding duties are still required. Henry really enjoys it because he can splash and play with his bath toys.

Peeking Over the Couch

Henry is practicing standing up more and more. Lately on of his favorite things to do after his bottle is to stand on the couch, with a little help, and peek over the edge.

You wouldn't believe what's behind this couch...

First Hair Cut

Posted on Monday, June 14th, 2010 at 8:00 am

Henry’s hair was billowing in the wind during our morning walks so we decided it was time for him to get a hair cut.

We went to Cool Cuts, which is one of the kid friendly hair cutting places. We figured that if he screamed and threw a fit, at least he wouldn’t be the first. They have fun little cars for the kids to sit in and their own personal TV. You can choose a DVD from their collection to watch. Since, Henry doesn’t watch TV at home yet our stylist recommended a Dora the Explorer episode, “The Super Silly Fiesta“.

Henry did great and since he doesn’t have tons of hair was only in the chair for about five minutes. All-in-all, it turned out to be a good experience. They even gave us a certificate and a little plastic bag to keep some locks of his first hair cut in (This part seems kinda of weird to me but I caved to societal pressure).

Here are the pictures:

Lego Dump Truck

As you can probably tell by now, Henry has a weakness for purchasing Legos. A recent trip to the Lego Store in the mall resulted in Henry bringing home a new Lego Dump Truck (#5651).

Practice photo shoot

Erin bought a few new outfits for Henry as we prepared for his first ever professional photo shoot. So naturally we had to test them out. Here’s one of the pictures.

It's getting harder and harder to catch Henry sitting still.

Waiting for Disney

YaiYai and Oppa spent a week at Walt Disney World and didn’t even offer to take Henry. So, he found another way to get his picture with Mickey.

Hopefully Mickey is a little less overpowering in person.
