Firetruck Fun
The firetruck visited the children at Jack's school on Monday, and of course he LOVED it. Mrs. Teresa is always so good about documenting everything for us. Some of the little girls did not like it at all, but thankfully Jack is not a bit scared of anything AND he loves characters!
Have I mentioned that even though he is 130% boy he is loving school and all of his new friends! He told me yesterday, mommy "Slade is my best friend." So cute!
Its amazing all the things he says and does now. He amazes me daily!

Plans with Kids
This weekend has not gone like we anticipated, we were bummed, but that's life with two small boys! It was our nephew's birthday party and we planned to leave late Friday night since J was working late get a hotel and spend the day Saturday before coming home to do the dreaded storage building clean out on Sunday. UGH!!!
Well I guess the cold snap made us all sick. Both boys had it coming out from all ends (sorry if that is too much info) add in runny noses and coughing AND a mommy that felt like I was dying and going to lose both lungs. AND the worst part, I can not take ANYTHING! There is not 1 sinus or cough medicine I have found that a nursing mom can take, fun right?
So we spent Saturday in our pjs, took really long naps, and went to bed early! Hopefully this week we will be feeling better and the weather changing is done so we can be done with this mess!
Today we decided to try getting out for a little while, but decided it was best to let J get the storage cleaned out this morning, (by the way if you need any BRAND NEW twin box springs..let me know!) and skip the church nursery so we did not make anyone else sick. Jack wanted Taziki's for lunch and then we all came home for naps!
Jack kept saying but Hamp's birthday, Hamp's birthday and I promised we would mail his presents 1st thing Monday and we would see them very soon since we are going to have another sweet boy joining us in December! J's parents will have 4 boys...1 every year since Jack was born in 2008, won't that be fun in about 3 more years???

PJ Feet
Its picture probably says nothing to you, but to me it says it all!This is the desk that is beside the dragon (that is what J and Jack call my embroidery machine) It holds my sewing machine, computer, printer, and really everything Tootlebugs related! Now you see why its hard to get anything done, but I would not trade it for anything!!
I want to remember when I look back at this what is was like to have little feet in their footie pjs all under my feet!

Fun with our Favs
You know how you have those friends, the ones that are like family and every time you talk to them or see them its like the best vacation even if its only for the day! Well that is how we feel about The Downs. I started keeping Sydney when she was 1 and now...she is 9. I know I am old. I have been lucky enough to watch their babies grow up and now they get to watch mine.
We were ecstatic that they came into town and spent Sunday and Monday with us. It also worked out that J had a slow day Monday and got to hang out too! Jack LOVES LOVES them and calls them Colby-Sydney-Caden all one word!

Tea Party Anyone?
Yesterday was a rainy cooler day, I needed to get caught up on some work, so we stayed home in our comfy clothes and worked and played. Jack was eating lunch and watching OSO when he said I want to have a tea party. I promised after nap we would tea party!
He was VERY excited about the tea party I set up with mini snickers and sweet tea! I was a tad concerned about my rough and tough all boy wanting a tea party, until he decided to eat off my plate, drink out of the tea pitcher, and lick his plate...He is still all boy, just a tea partying boy!

Big Boy
Henry is growing up on us WAY to fast!
We had a big weekend that included a 1st haircut. He was so good, as expected. He did not cry or really whine except for one time when he did not want to hold his head down. Of course Jack threw a fit in the floor over a little trim which he has had 50 million times, go figure!
AND we got his 1st pair of shoes! He look so cute in his little keds with his chubby legs hanging out.He is cruising EVERYWHERE and I am not sure I am ready for him to be walking yet!
I really need time to stop and stand still.

Dear Henry: Month Ten
Sweet Boy,
This is the month where everything changed. The one that I knew was coming, but not sure I really wanted it to come so fast! The one that you can not wait for with the 1st, but wish for it to now come so fast the 2nd time around! You are EVERYWHERE and into EVERYTHING! In two short weeks you went from sitting up well and going from tummy to sitting, to crawling, pulling up on any and everything, especially my embroidery machine, of course when I try to work! I thought I did not get much done already, but boy now I can't get anything done!
You weigh almost 23lbs and have 4 teeth that make me laugh when you smile. You are eating solid foods now almost completely and still nurse about 4-5 times a day. I actually can not believe we are going to be those people, the mommy and baby that make it a whole year on strictly being breastfeed. I have to say it will be quite the accomplishment for both of us!
You are saying mama, dadda, and clap and wave bye-bye. You love to be into and do anything your brother is doing. He loves to tell you good morning and kiss you good night and wake you up from your nap despite my best efforts sometimes.
You are the BIGGEST mommy's boy and that is totally okay with me most days! I think if I could just tie you to my hip you would stay there 24 hours a day and best more content than you already are!
We love you Henbug more than anything, and can not believe in 8 short weeks we will be celebrating your 1st birthday. I really need time to stand still and give me just a few more sweet moments with my baby! LOVE YOU more than anything!
