Two month portrait.
Anna wanted a picture of the two of them together.
Henry is getting bigger and stronger by leaps and bounds! I brought him for some more vaccinations on Friday and he weighs sixteen pounds already. No wonder my back is tired! I have been holding him in the sling a lot but I'm going to have to come up with a different game plan because it is just wearing me out.
He is still Mr. Wonderful at nighttime and we stopped swaddling him a few weeks ago and just put him in a sleep sack. He typically goes to bed around 7 PM wakes one time (between 2-4) to eat and then goes back down until shortly after 6. When he wakes up at 6 he is talking and laughing to himself. I wish I knew what he was thinking about that he wakes up so happy!
Henry has the biggest smile when you look in his eyes and talk to him. He "talks" back and has so much to say. He really likes when Anna or Sarah stop and talk to him or are just near him. He has a fondness for one particular lion finger puppet and is learning to hold on to rattles, etc. He loves when I clap his hands and do "pat-a-cake" with him. And to end on a note of extreme cuteness: he has discovered his hands this week and finds them incredibly fascinating (this is particularly adorable to observe).
Henry--I can just imagine how fun you would be to hold! Bet you are starting to be squirmy now too. Do you get your good sleeping ability from your Dad and Grandma Adele? XOXOXO
