Happy 6 Month BIRTHDAY sweet Henry!

For most new mommys we learn just how quickly time really does fly by! I cant believe my sweet Henry is now 6 months old! The last 6 months have brought more change to my life then ever before, and we are enjoying the ride! Henry is sitting up by himself, and has two tiny little bottom teeth! He is happily eating carrots, peas, and peaches! He loves the mirror. His favorite toys these days consist of Harry, his stuffed dog, a rattle with a ladybug on one end, and a frog on the other, and his sing-a-long puppy. He also really loves his alphabet pal! Henry got his big boy high chair this month and is still adjusting. If he isn't eating in it, he doesn't want to be in it. Henry is a big boy. He is wearing clothes that range anywhere from 6-12 months! I am so proud of him. He is curious about everything and loves life. He loves to play with Daddy when he gets home from school. He ha been rolling over from his tummy to his back for a while but recently going the other direction every once and a while. Yay!

Sleep? Henry sleeps these days from about 9:30pm-5:30am. He usually will go back to sleep in the morning for another hour or so and then take a couple afternoon naps. He is a fantastic boy, and I am incredibly blessed with my amazing family.

I was thinking more about my pregnancy recently as it is that my friend welcomed her sweet little Paige into the world today, and I was thinking about all the changes that are happening in those first three months. I rememeber for several weeks all I would eat was Pita bread and organic chocolate milk from Noodles & Co. I am surprised my staff didn't catch on a little sooner....although a few had their guesses. I craved fruity things in the begining and loved Jamba Juice, however it made me terribly ill. I also loved loved loved Hot Tamales (The candy) before I got pregnant and my mom had given me a 5LB bag of them for Christmas. Those made me pretty sick as well. I think in general I loved fruit all through my pregnancy, especially cantaloup. I was hospitalized for 72 hours when I was about 24 weeks pregnant due to a kidney infection and I remember eating cantaloup with EVERY meal. Sometimes I asked for 2 sides. I did that when Henry was born too. I still REALLY love cantaloup! YUM!

Henry, Thank you for being such a great boy! I love you so much and am so proud of you! Happy 1/2 Birthday Sweet Boy.
