A little of this

and a little of that. I figured it was time to an update so here's some low quality phone pics to go along with it. :)
Hanging out, watching cartoons before church. He was excited to "Go see Wyan and Bison at church!" (translated "go see Ryan and Bryson at church)


trying on girls' (Izzy's) shoes and thankfully he looks puzzled with his behavior :)


I got the picture of Henry blowing bubbles and then this text from Nanny. Too funny!!
Can u see the bubbles & wand Henry has in his hand?  Well, he stuck the wand in his mouth & I told him, "no, no, don't put it in ur mouth!".  Then, everytime he would say something after that bubbles would come out his mouth!!  I laughed SO HARD I thought I'd never stop laughing....cause he kept talking & making bubbles!!!!  TOO STINKIN FUNNY!! Of course, he had NO idea what was cracking me up!!  Wish u could have seen it!!!!

June 12th - Henry's first trip on the train. I got off work a little early one afternoon so we surprised Daddy at the train station that drops off/picks up just one stop before his. I love when something I've always wanted to do just comes together so easily. Henry loved riding the train and Daddy enjoyed the surprise passengers.

In the mornings before it gets too hot, Nanny takes the kids for a walk. Henry's favorite thing to ride is this little big wheel. We don't have to tell him that it has Tinkerbell on it.

Father's Day weekend, Mike sold his weight set (his was getting no love since he started working out on his lunch hour at his office).  Since we had an extra room, we moved all of Henry's toys and changing table so he could have a new place to play.  This room will eventually be the next baby's room (No, don't go there.) but in the meantime, Henry is certainly enjoying his "pay room!"

We might have a little budding artist on our hands. This is the little art table at Izzy's house and he just loves to sit and color. This picture makes me a little sad as he looks way too grown up here. I guess my little baby is now a little boy.

A few other things that I don't want to forget:
The other night Henry picked up a little piece of scrap foam that Mike had. "What's that, Daddy?" he asked. Mike said "That's a piece of foam, buddy." Henry, without skipping a beat, picks it up, puts it to his ear and say "Hello!" Mike and I busted up laughing. He thought Daddy said "phone" not "foam" and couldn't understand why we were laughing. He just fake laughed and walked off. Little goober.

He mimics every.single.thing. we do now. Talk about humbling and behavior changing. Ha! Nothing like hearing your 2 year old holler from the backseat "Go cars! What are you doing? Come on!" I guess it's time for me to remember that he sees and hears everything and will most likely repeat it!!  He does the cutest little "hush" motion with his finger. He's usually grinning from ear to ear when he does it, you can see his little dimple the left side of face which makes it that much cuter.

He has learned how to count to 20, but consistently skips 6 and 8. He gets really excited with random numbers along the way but usually throws his hands up in excitement when he gets to 20.  I'm still constantly amazed at the things he learns and picks up on. 

We've casually introduced potty training to him. Everyone says he will surprise us and learn quickly, but man I'm hoping they are right. I've been dreading this stage for a long time now. Izzy was potty trained in just a few short days last weekend so he's really curious what she's up to and why she's getting treats for her deeds. We bought the tiniest pair of underwear and while I'm not sure how big I thought they would be, they just look so tiny, like little baby clothes. We're hoping and praying the CARS characters will entice him get it down accident free. We're going to officially start in the next few weeks. Here's to wishful thinking! : )

Well I guess that's all for now. We have a busy weekend ahead but I hope to post more about that later. Have a good one!
