I can not believe that my precious baby is now a one-year-old!! This past year has been the absolute best year of our lives! Michael and I have had more fun watching our sweet baby boy grow and learn! We were talking earlier and decided that we can't believe Henry's already a year old because the time has flown by but also don't
remember life without him. He's such a fun little guy and he makes me smile
every time I think about him! I never thought I could love someone so very much. We are so thankful every day that we were chosen to be Henry's momma and daddy. God is so good!
Our sweet one year old is now babbling/talking up a storm! His "recognizable" words are Momma, Dada, thank you, uh-oh and
bwuddabwuddabwudda (brother brother brother)! He (finally) loves table food and so far has eaten anything I've put in front of him. He loves fruit, cheese, avocados, potatoes, carrots, green beans, cheerios and graham crackers. Henry isn't walking, yet...but he cruises all around the furniture and can play a mean game of
peepie! He loves to be tickled and snuggled and still loves
Weez (his blue bunny) the most in the world! Happy Birthday, Sweet Henry!! We love you!
Christmas has always been one of my favorite times of the year...it's even more fun with Henry!! Michael and I kept laughing about how last year, everyone kept saying "things sure will be different next year"! (meaning, you'll have a baby at Christmas). Little did we all know that our sweet Henry would make an early appearance and we DID have a baby at Christmas! Of course, this year he was a "little" more, shall we say, busy! Just like many of you, we made the rounds to all the sides of the family...can you say EXHAUSTING?!?! Since this post is l-a-t-e, I'll just show off a few pics of my sweet little boy instead of boring you with the ins and outs of our Christmas travels! By the way, next Christmas sure will be different!!! We still can't believe we'll be ordering another stocking!! God is so good (and full of surprises)! 
Checking out what Santa brought!
Every boy should get a BB gun!! Just kidding...this was really for our nephew!
It is WAY more fun to clap puzzle pieces together than to figure out where they go!
Henry (12/12/08) 5 pounds 4 ounces, 18 inches long...so much love, laughter, growing and learning this year!!
We are very excited to announce that Henry is going to be a BIG brother! We feel extremely blessed and a little caught off guard, that's for sure! This sweet little baby is a boy and we could not be more excited! He's due mid April so these little boys will be sixteen months apart! We are taking name suggestions since we don't have a clue what to call this little guy! Obviously, Henry has no idea what is about to happen to his world and quite frankly Michael and I don't either! We are just thanking God for this wonderful gift and holding on tight for the ride! Henry has been more fun and filled us with more love than we ever thought possible! I can't even imagine how wonderful our lives will be with another baby boy!
While we all had a fun time and Henry was a sweet little guy...he turned into a bit of a turkey regarding his nap/bedtime schedule due to the traveling...oh well, I guess that's the beauty of traveling with a baby...here we come Christmas!! :)
