Our Little Pumpkin

Last night was trick or treat night in our area and even though Henry is still too little to enjoy trick or treating, Stephen and I enjoyed getting him all dressed up and walking around the neighborhood with our family and friends. Stephen stayed out trick or treating the whole time but Henry and I only made it down a few streets before Henry had had enough and was ready for his bed. We had so much fun and can't wait for next year when Henry will be little older and able to enjoy it more. Here are some pictures of our fun night.




Our first halloween as parents!








Henry was the cutest little pumpkin ever!



Will (the rock star), Samuel (the Cowboy Sheriff), Mary Riley ( the skull fairy), Henry ( the pumpkin), Abby ( the pop star), and Eli ( the biker rocker) getting ready to trick or treat. We couldn't get Will to cooperate so we just had to settle with the back of his head in the group picture!


Our sweet little neighbor and friend,Ava, the butterfly.




Noah was too excited to stop for a picture, but as he said he was a "scary frog"

A New Trick




This morning Henry woke up with a new trick, smiling! He has been smiling all day when I talk to him or try to feed him. He has been smiling randomly since birth, but today it was obvious he was smiling at me! I must be doing something right because he seems to be pretty happy with the service he is receiving! It has just made my day to see his little smiling face and know that he obviously loves us.

All Smiles

Henry really likes his play gym. I thought he was still too small to enjoy it, but I put him on it this morning just to see what he would do. He loved it. He actually giggled out loud!

Bathtime




Henry got to take his first real bath on Friday. He isn't too sure he likes bathtime yet, but he did like getting a real bath better then the sponge baths he has been getting. His favorite part of bathtime is the end when he gets to be all wrapped up in a warm towel. His daddy always warms his towel in the dryer while Henry is getting a bath. Henry can be screaming and as soon as we wrap the towel around him he will get real quiet and just start looking around. Here is one of my favorite pictures of Henry after his bath.

A Little Confused



Henry seems to be a little confused about days and nights. He is such a good sleeper during the day. Then, after his 9pm feeding he seems to get a burst of energy and stays awake until after his 1am feeding. These pictures were taken at 11pm when Stephen and I were so ready to get some sleep and Henry just wanted to visit!
