Who needs pants anyway?

Who needs pants to stick their sword into when you can just stick it in the top of your pajamas?!



You are one silly boy Henry!

A New Sand Table Experience

Instead of just rolling his dump truck through the sand in the sand table...

...Henry decides to get in the sand along with his dump truck!



"Tables are for climbing onto anyway, right?"

Mommy's Weekend Away :-)

A couple of months ago I "ran away" for the weekend to visit my dear friend Lauren in Durham, North Carolina. I got to meet her very sweet boyfriend, see her beautiful home, cheer on North Carolina against Duke in football, spend some fun time with her family and friends, and laugh a lot together. And I enjoyed every minute of it! :-)

Thanks for a fantastic weekend Lauren! I look forward to another one very soon!



And while Mommy is away, her two boys definitely play! ;-) Trey took Henry to the zoo and to a trucks exhibit at our Children's Museum. Henry LOVED seeing all of the trucks until the demonstration of a race car starting up began without notice and then he was pretty much done with the exhibit!

He did come away with a really cool digger hat though! And he wears it all of the time! :-)

We are PACIFIER-FREE!

At 21 months old, Henry became pacifier free thanks to Trey's strong will and a weekend away for Mommy! :-)

Henry with his friend the paci this time last year...



It actually was not near as bad as I expected even though our child had been completely addicted. We did have some sleeping issues for about two weeks after we took it away but nothing that would ever tempt me to give it back. The only problem now is that Henry does not want to go to sleep. He fights it terribly which he never, ever used to do. Oh well! Once he goes to sleep he stays asleep and that is the most important thing! ;-)

Trey since I am out of town next weekend for a few days can you please have potty training finished by the time I get back?! ;-) Love you!

Our lazy weekend mornings...

...spent reading the paper (definitely Trey's son reading the Best Buy advertisment...ha!)...



...and relaxing! (Most of us have our clothes on but Henry would rather not!) :-)

Wheel of Fortune

Some evenings if Trey is not home from work I will turn Wheel of Fortune on to entertain Henry while I am cooking dinner. He loves to "call out letters"! Although the only letter he usually calls out is "B" so needless to say he is not really solving a whole lot of puzzles! ;-)

You can't stop him!

One evening Trey and I were in the kitchen cooking and Henry walked in chewing on something...



It was the doorknob cover we purchased to keep Henry from opening the doors! He had popped that cover right off! So much for safety!

I guess it might be Harvard for you after all! :-)
