No Snow Here

I know much of the east coast has snow, but we have none. Felicity is ready though with her new hat and mittens in her favorite color.

I have really had to watch her lately. She has picked up Henry 3 times in the last 2 days...

December Fun

Videos: Felicity does an acrobatic move with dad and Henry has started to coo.

Making Christmas Cookies

We had tons of fun making (and eating) these. Felicity kept saying, "He can't see" or "he can't walk" after she would eat body parts.

Thanksgiving

He slept very well at my parent's home even with all the noise!

Henry's new friend Zach, that we visited on our trip to Baltimore.

Family picture Thanksgiving day. We could either get Felicity to smile too much, or not at all.

More family.

My parents and all their grandkids! Dad says Henry is the best baby he has seen of his grandkids and kids, and I was the worst baby. I guess I cried for the first year of my life. Henry does cry, but is mostly content.

Fireman Birthday Party

Felicity's cousin's birthday party. A real fire truck and ambulance came.

Henry slept through the party.

Henry and his uncle.

Henry and Christine's mom.

Felicity put a fire hat on Henry's head.

Her cousin was scared to blow out the candles, so Felicity helped.

Felicity was a little scared of going in the fire truck.

Eating out last week.

He really doesn't cry that much. Here is a rare moment.

The birth announcement picture.

Henry is born!

Henry Immanuel was born on October 31st (yes, Halloween) at 12:58 am weighing 7 pounds 10 ounces. He seems to be a happy, non-fussy baby so far...we all are well!

Hello, Cow!

Picking Cotton.

Hay Ride.

Milking a "cow".

We visited a farm yesterday, and Felicity kept talking and bossing around all the animals. Here she says, "Hello, Cow." At the sheep, she was telling them to share their food. We picked cotton, pumpkins, fed goats, took a hay ride, went through a hay maze, and saw lots of animals. What a loud cow!

This llama is really funny.

Snuggling with daddy on the couch. She loves to look at pictures of herself on the computer with him.

Tinkerbell.

Felicity has to sleep with all her dolls. She is currently sleeping sideways in her new bed so that she doesn't roll out. Bedtime some nights doesn't come till 10:00... We're working on that.

Fair

We went to the county fair yesterday, and had so much fun looking at the animals and riding the rides. Well, she rode the rides by herself since I couldn't ride them with a big belly. Felicity was exactly 36 inches tall, so there were about 8 rides she could do by herself. One I thought was really scary, but she loved it!

A Friend's Birthday

Felicity's friend turns 1!

Eating a cupcake at the birthday party.

Lots of great food at the party.

I tried to do low pig tales. They stayed for a couple of hours, then fell out.

Pretend Birthday

We made a pretend birthday cake with playdough and then sang "Happy Birthday" about 20 times. I would light the candle in the playdough again each time and then she would blow it out. It was a lot of fun and she was so happy to sing the song every time, and kept wanting to sing the song for different people.

Random Pictures

We had our "purse party" last night and Felicity had lots of fun with all the ladies while I bought some bags.

We made this fun "house" for all her Fisher price people today.

Wrapped up in a new blanket from Mom-mom.

She really did great on our car trip home from up North, despite all the loud noise from the ladder on the roof. Going there, she threw up-coming back, I decided to skip the coloring.
