All about HJ

Henry is now 9 months old!! We have a doctor appointment next week so I will post all his stats then. Cereal, fruit and veggies are a success now and it seems he prefers them over the bottle. Something else that we found he LOVES is macaroni and cheese. Not sure if it's the best thing to give him, but he seriously wolfs it down.

Something else that Henry LOVES are the cartoons Spongebob Square Pants, Dora the Explorer and that Diego show. It's not that I want my kid to be a couch potatoe, but it's nice when it'll occupy at least 20 minutes so I can shower. He especially loves to watch cartoons in our bed.

Henry really likes to be included in everything we do, so I put his Bumbo on a seat at the kitchen table while we eat.

He'll have a plate infront of him before I know it.

Just a little too short.

Christmas 2009

Hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas!

We'll see you in 2010!

Off we go!

We are going down to my mom's then dad's house for Christmas this year. I bought this onesie for Henry long before he was born, so I was excited to use it.

Big blue eyes, and cheeks that taste like candy.

Telling me stories.

We are trying to learn how to sit up, and it's a slow process.

S-P-O-I-L-E-D

That is what the Aunt and Uncle Moser do to Henry. . SPOIL him. They came over and we exchanged gifts. They bought Henry some really fun building blocks and a toy that he can ride, or walk with. After tasting each block, he decided it was the perfect gift.

Ripping the paper.

This kid makes the funniest faces.

Yummy!

Alan took Henry to see Santa, but it was "workshop" Santa that day. He was wearing a blue shirt without the hat or anything festive. So right before my brother in law, Roger, went to a party as Santa I snapped a couple pictures. I was surprised that Henry didn't cry, like he did with the first Santa.

Henry checking the beard to see if it's legit.

Grandma and Grandpa Roberts bought Henry this jump'n'go. He doesn't so much jump, as twirl around and look at the lights.

Maybe I should move it off the slippery hardwood floor. :o)

Henry loves Christmas

I'm pretty sure that's one of the cutest outfits I've ever seen for a boy. And if you have a boy, you know it's not often that something that adorable comes along. Besides, with the 10 dollar price tag, you would be stupid to pass it up!

Henry is now 8 months old and we are falling more in love with our little man every day. This is his Christmas outfit with matching hat.

He LOVES laying by the tree and looking at the lights. Helps me out when I'm busy doing something else.

My fun craft project for the season!

Happy Holidays

Love, The Roberts

My heart is full

Not a day goes by that I don't look at Henry J and realize how blessed and thankful I am. But for this week of Thanksgiving I would like to publicly express my feelings. I know that I got very lucky for my situation and not everyone gets to see their babies go home. I will never be able to express my gratitude to the doctors and nurses at the U, who took care of him when I was not able to. I will never be able to thank mine and Alan's family enough for all the support. I will never be able to fully thank Alan for the amazing gift he gave me and for spending those long hours in the hospital at my side. You truly are the most amazing person I have ever met. Last and not least, I will never be able to tell Henry J how special he is to me and his father. We truly are blessed to have one another.

Happy Thanksgiving.
