Happy 1st Birthday, Henry!


Today Henry is officially ONE year old!  He is walking, actually more like toddling, so I guess this makes him a toddler??  He is still so much of a baby though.  My goodness, what a year it has been.  I can still remember holding my tiny newborn in the hospital.  I remember how tough breastfeeding was in the beginning, but I finally got the hang of it.  We moved houses when Henry was 2 months old and flew 26 hours to the US when he was 5 months.  Henry went from sleeping all day to cooing, to grasping toys, to rolling, to crawling, to pulling himself up, and now walking.  Henry is such a joy to be around.  He makes me laugh all the time.  While I am sad that babyhood is ending, I can't wait to see what this next year will bring us!   

What Henry's been up to this month:
  • He has 5 teeth now
  • Walking!  The little guy is toddling around everywhere
  • Beginning to eat more food.  Eats 2 big meals a day (scrambled eggs for breakfast and some sort of lunch)
  • Says "ssss" for zebra and can say something that resembles cheese ("chiz")
  • Can follow simple instructions (like, "go get your shoes" and "hand mummy that block")
