I didn't say when...

When I said pictures were coming, I didn't say how long it was going to be. :)

Because I don't feel like doing much else today, I have decided to blog. Here are some pictures from past months. I am not promising much detail.

Henry likes Fox News.

Henry on his 6 month birthday.

He watched General Conference too.

Happy Easter! Don't worry. He shared.


Road trip!

He went swimming at our hotel in Rexburg. He would get to where he got excited, would splash the water, then get upset that there was water in his face. I'm excited to take him swimming again. We've been practicing playing with water while he's in the bathtub and he really likes it a lot now.

We've been spending time in our back yard, so I got him this cute hat. Until now he has hated hats, so I made him wear it around Target for a bit before I bought it. He seems to like this one!

I got flowers for Mother's Day! I love my flowers. If you will also note that my fence is newly stained. Henry and I spent a lot of time getting that done. My other Mother's Day present was Nate's help on Saturday. With out his help it would have taken me another couple weeks at the rate I was going. Thank you!!! I am very excited about my little back yard!

Happy Mothers Day!!

Don't worry those of you who read Annah's blog. I know what you are thinking; "When is she actually going to put up a post?" Though she spends a lot of time on the internet she has a hard time putting up posts. But who are we to complain? She is a busy working mother with a lot to do. So I thought I would take it upon my self and my lazy Mothers Sunday morning to post something up for my sister. Happy Mothers Day Nannah! Good thing all her passwords are the same as my mothers.

A few weeks ago Annah and Henry helped me show Ian around Temple Square for the first time. This is Henry in the Joseph Smith Building. Fallowed by Annah and Henry with the Christus and them on top of the Conference center.

We all eat lunch at Buchadepeos (I don't know how to spell that super good italian place a few blocks away from temple square) but we all love our food. I gave Henry his first taste of an Italian soda that made him hiccup for a while and he really enjoyed chomping down on my paper place matt. I know this is mainly a post about Henry but thats what mothers blog about right? There children?

Long time no see!

Haven't been on the computer much lately. There's been a lot going on PLUS Henry is being lots of fun, but pictures and such are coming. I haven't forgotten!

Go Grizzlies!

Tonight Nate and I were able to go to a Grizzlies (hockey) game and watch it from a suite. If I had realized before we got there that this was our 1st sporting event we've ever attended together I might have taken our camera. (Not really. That's how much we care about sports). It was fun to hang out in a suite, with catering, and watch a game. We kept hoping there would be a fight big enough to clear the stands or a hockey puck fly up into the crowd, but we got nothing more than a players getting shoved into the wall or "accidentally" hit.

It was rather enjoyable. Now I just don't know that we can go back to the regular seats. Ha! Like we ever went to sports stuff before...

I know I'm cute. I'm Scottish.

The last few weeks have been awful busy, but here are some highlights in pictures:

Sonic cups are hilarious. Simply move the straw up and down so you get the squeaky sound and you've got a giggly little boy. Talk about a whole new meaning to "Happy Hour".

Henry got some solids! He has tummy issues sometimes and apple sauce seemed like the best option for various reasons. He loves it!

The weather is warming up, so we've been spending time outside. Henry LOVES his new walker, so he scoots himself everywhere and it serves at great entertainment while I clean the fence. (More to come on the fence. I'm very excited about this project!)

He also got a new high chair/booster seat. He love it! He gets very excited when it's time to go in it.

He can't crawl yet, but he gets where he wants to go. Here he is caught in the act. I guess it's time to baby proof.

I thought we got pictures, but can't seem to find them at the moment, but he had oatmeal the yesterday night. I think he likes oatmeal better than apple sauce. He tried to pick the bowl up and drink it out of the bowl. (Now that I think about it, I bet I deleted the pictures already. :( Hopefully they turn up. Anyone know how to recover pictures deleted from a memory card?)

Do I know you?

Seriously. Does ANYONE know these people? I get emails from them constantly about family stuff, local events, the new group weight loss goal, kids soccer games, shopping days, etc. You name it, I've probably gotten an email about it. Here is a little of what I know. They obviously have a family member named Dixie Dixon, we've emailed back and forth a little and I know they live in the Mesa, Arizona area, the kids play soccer, someone in this picture thinks they're a "bunch of hotties", and according to the picture, they're a lot of BYU fans. Kinda random, but I'm starting to think I should just show up to a family event some day. Maybe I will!

4 Month Checkup

As usual, I'm a little slow, but Henry went for his 4 month check up when he was 4 months and 10 days. Here are his stats:

Weight: 13.36 lbs or the 13.83 %tile
Length: 25 inches or the 44.32 %tile
Head: 17 inches or the 68.59 %tile

So, we have a skinny, average lengthed, semi big headed boy on our hands. We think he's pretty cute. He had to have one vaccine by mouth and 2 shots this visit. He only cried for his second shot and he was smiling before the lady even left the room. What a champ!

These pictures are a from a couple days before. Henry was very interested in the water coming out of the faucet, so we let him play.

Nate finally got a picture or our nightly routine. He nights he sleeps in his crib, this is how he falls asleep.

I have to lean over the top of the crib and sing to him while rubbing his head. Sometimes he sucks my thumb. Sometimes we just put him in here and he falls asleep, but that doesn't happen very often.
