Brisk Me Away

Week of 7/1

All of our family left on Sunday except for Heather and Layna. We got a little extra time with them  which was so much fun! The rest of the week/weekend was spent just hanging out around the house. Wednesday was Henry's first 4th of July! We spent it grilling out with neighbors, and I am so mad at myself that I forgot to take a picture! Don't worry, though, he wore like 10 different red, white, and blue throughout the week to commemorate the occasion! No fireworks for him this year, though! He was in bed before those started!:)
Layna loved our little pool....a girl after my own heart!

Let's just say that Layna kept Henry very entertained!:)

This is Henry's first time in a float! He seemed pretty relaxed!

Aunt Heather keeps Henry well supplied with "Aunt" clothing! This is the latest addition!

We did some shopping and eating out while they were here (Heather is also a girl after my own heart!). I bought these infant sunglasses for Henry thinking they looked so tiny in the package. When I put them on him, though, they were huge! :)

Henry loves his Aunt Heather!

Henry and Layna one morning:)

Here is Henry with a new toy...he is so much more into toys these days! This one just kind of made him mad, though, because there was nothing he could really suck on.:) Since this initial meeting he has started to like this ball a little better. Oh, check out that belly!:)

We shopped at Bridge Street one day....Layna certainly enjoyed the fountains!

Layna kept Henry very entertained...she read to him, held him, talked to him, and even pretended to be different animals for him. What a good cousin!

Chick-fil-A makes everyone smile!

This is the only picture I got on the 4th...Henry is looking all tuckered out after having company for 10 days solid. Thanks for visiting, everyone!
Kind of funny, Steven took this picture the next day after I had taken the one above....we both were noticing separately how big he is looking in his seat, I guess! And Henry is grasping his current favorite toy. Monchichi the monkey provides lots of entertainment!!
Henry loves to stick his tongue out lately!
This is his current favorite game (or maybe it is MY current favorite game!)...I fake him out by getting his neck, chin, or cheeks, and he tries to eat whatever it is coming toward him. It is funny how many times he will do this:)
We caught another current happening in Henry's life...bubble blowing!
And drooling!
He is still liking the Johnny Jumper!
Just hanging out!
And last but not least, Henry has officially found his feet this week! He tries to get them into his mouth, but I think he takes after Steven's flexibility....you may have to give it up, Henry!
It is fun to try, anyway!
He has also started sucking on the washcloth...this makes him very happy!:)
