Totally Two



Are you all singing to me?

Our little Henry turned two on April 28th.  Boy does he act two these days!  He has begun to throw monster tantrums, mostly when he doesn't get something he wants, which is usually watching either Wiggles or Muppets.  Henry loves to watch the Wiggles and join in with dancing, his other favorite show to watch is the new Muppet movie or the old episodes of the Muppet Show.  He calls them the "muffins" which is completely adorable.   He also says "foon" for "spoon" and "Mister Mouse" for "Mickey Mouse." Even though his pronunciation could use some work, he can say basically anything now and talks in complete sentences.  This year when he began to talk he started every word with"a" he still does this some.  He would say, "a sock", "a shoes", "a Andew", "a Mommy", "a horse", "a ouch", "a sad"...you get the picture, every single word had the word "a" at the beginning.  This was a year of big change, he started walking right around his first birthday and now has become a master runner and climber.  His favorite past time is getting into absolutely everything!!  He is constantly opening containers and pouring the contents onto the floor.  He will help clean up though, he happily grabs a towel and crouches down to help scrub.  Sometimes I think he makes the mess because he has so much fun cleaning it up! 

Henry loves and adores Andrew too.  It melts my heart when on the way to and from daycare I often hear Henry in the backseat say, "I luv lu Andew"  and Andrew always replies, "I love you too Henry."  I actually have a video of Henry saying "I luv lu" it is so cute to hear his lisp.  The boys play pretty well together most of the time, they fight some, little brothers can become aggravating, but, usually they are happily together.

Henry loved his new Elmo "packpack"

My new Mickey Mouse costume!

It has been so fun to see Henry's personality emerge over this year.  He is quite the charmer.  Everywhere we go he says "hi" to everyone, especially pretty waitresses.  He enjoys attention and being social.  He is my snuggle guy too.  He loves sitting on laps and being carried and getting hugs, which everyone around him happily obliges.  Henry you are an amazing little guy and we can't wait to see you grow this year and continue loving every minute of it!
