Birthday BOY

Yesterday was Henry's Birthday. Here is a little tribute to Henry. Sorry the pictures didn't want to go in order.
Henry is a little clumsy he tends to fall a lot. Here he is with a bruise between his eyes and one over his eye brow and a small black eye.

Henry has always loved tools and putting things together and taking them apart.


He still has his blond hair and it usually is sticking straight up.
He loves this firetruck and still rides it all over the house.



Henry was and is a very cute little boy though getting not so little.

The Party
Henry loves cars, trucks, airplanes, and helicopters so that was the theme of his party.

A birthday cake fit for a two year old. Michael's family joined us to celebrate Henry's birthday. Michael's parents have been staying with us for the past couple of weeks.

I printed pictures of cars, trucks, trains, and airplanes and put them on the walls the night before so it would be a surprise in the morning. He was so excited when he saw the pictures he couldn't stop talking about them. I also blew up balloons and put them in his room while he was sleeping but that didn't go so well. The sun comes up at 5am here. He woke up and the balloons scared him so he started crying. He wouldn't go back to sleep so his birthday started at 5am.
Of course we went swimming.
Henry's favorite things to eat are peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and french fries. So that was what we had for dinner

Henry got a new bike from mommy and daddy, books and a fire fighter hat from the Kirby's(Michael's sister family) and a fire truck toy and car toy from grandma and grandpa. Michael's mom also made him a new blanket that has tractors on it. He had to take the hat, the fire truck toy and the new blanket all to bed with him last night.

Continuation of the tribute

When he is doing something he is not supposed to he says "look a me, look a me." I tried to get it on video, this was as close as I could get.

What we love about Henry,
Henry loves his blanket(not pictured). Ever since we moved here he has become attached to his blanket. He has to have it when he watches TV and when he reads books. It has to be over his legs and all straightened out. He does not like to share it. When it is not over his legs it is in his mouth. It has food all over it most of the time and usually some blood. He has a melt down when it goes in the washer. Henry is the filling in our Oreo cookie(the blond between the 2 browns). He can be absolutely adorable and crabby all at the same time. He is our alarm clock; always the first to get up(usually around 6am). He is his father's son and his mommy's little boy. We love you Henry. Happy Birthday.
