June iPhone Photo Dump

Checking out the cow at the petting zoo.  

(Right before it mooed REALLY loud and scared Henry.)

Picnic lunch in the living room.

Followed by a snack.

First train ride at Members Only Night at the zoo.  

Henry was so brave to go on all by himself... two times in a row.  "More please!"

I strong!

Booboo :-(

Lunch... leftover homemade veggie pizza from the night before.  

Great way to get Henry to eat some broccoli and zucchini. 

Trying to climb up the slide at the park. 

Nothing but net!

Spaghetti at Grammie's house. 

Swinging at the park.  A daily occurrence. 

New hat that daddy picked out for me.  He ACTUALLY went to the mall :-)

Where is Henry???

Here I am!

Rain Rain Go Away

 

I feel like this has been quite the rainy summer.  We've managed to make the most of it...even if that means going out to play in the rain.

Timbits

Henry got to experience his first donut...we went with a 10-pack of Timbits to share with Grammie and Aunt Molly.   You can tell he wasn't too sure what to think about it, but once he tasted the goodness of it, the whole thing went in his mouth. What a piggy!!!

Members Only Night at the Buffalo Zoo

 

Cousins

These kiddos had a fun morning playing together while I watched them.  They love to entertain Henry and even took turns pushing him in the stroller on our walk.  I wish I had them around more often!

Pool Fun

Miss Marji

Henry has spent the last year and half home with a terrific nanny while Edward and I were working.  We were so blessed to have Maji!  She was more than we ever expected.  Over time, she wasn't just a nanny to Henry, but a great friend to us and part of our family.  I can honestly say she genuinely loved Henry and that made me so happy! They spent countless hours outside, played with toys all over the house, snuggled together when he was sad, had daily dance parties in the living room and read book after book.  

Unfortunately circumstances won't work out for her to come back in the Fall.  We didn't want to look for someone else to come to our house because we had such a great experience with Marji.  Yes, I know there are probably many wonderful nannies out there that we could probably find, but I just don't want to replace her.  They just won't be Marji, so instead Henry will be starting daycare.  

She texted me these photo collages on her last day with Henry and I was tearing up looking at them.  I forgot that Henry was such a little baby when he first meet Miss Marji.  She filled out daily log sheets for us and always wrote the sweetest note at the bottom everyday.  I have saved EVERY single one of them and cannot wait to show Henry them when he is older!

Marji gifted Henry a Mickey Mouse chair for outside and some cool cars that make noise. 

The best picture I could get of the two of them on their last day together. 

We all Scream for Ice Cream!

So ice cream has become a treat in our house lately.  Henry sure doesn't mind it!  However, we have tried taking him to two local ice cream places in our village and he has had 0meltdowns at both.  It seems he ONLY wants to eat his ice cream cone at home...we literally have had to take the melting cone home and then he will eat it.  Oh Henry!!!

Happy Father's Day

 

  

 

Edward had a great Father's Day.  Henry and I got him a new basketball, swimming trunks and cooler for the summer.  I'm pretty sure Henry thought the ball was for him. We had a fun morning at home and then headed over to the Edward's parent's house to celebrate the double header of Father's Day and his dad's birthday.  We are sooooo thankful for such wonderful dads :-) WE LOVE YOU ALL!!!
