I got to hang out with my Grandma Dane! She's so funny!!


This is my partner in crime, Maelie!


And I got to meet my new friend Kendall!! She's so nice. We held hands!


But I can't wait to see my Daddy! I love big handsome Daddy!!

2 more days!!

'Is it time yet Mom?'

"I'm all packed guys! See you in two days!"

3 more days... and we're packing!

"I have to pack my rod and reel so I can go fishing with Papa."

"I am so excited to go see the BIG animals with Maelie."


"And I need to get ready for Uncle Drew's party!"

"But I'm really going to miss this guy. I love my Daddy!"

No one makes Henry happier than his Daddy. By the way, can you see any resemblance?

4 more days

I love this profile.

How gigantic do his feet look?! These shoes are still a little too big, but the kid has big feet!


What child of ours could not wear flip flops??

Henry's Room

Henry's helping

'Uh, Mommy, your last post was wrong. It wasn't eleven days, it was ten!'

'Here use this if you need help counting!'

I was so excited to get Henry in his spaceman jammies. I thought they were a 6, but they were a 3 so they should have fit perfectly. Instead, Henry's foot tried making a break for it and the market piggy made it out!

Tomorrow is eleven?!

Holy cow! I'll say it again, Holy Cow! Tomorrow is eleven days until Henry and I go back to Dallas. Let me tell you I am excited about going home to see everyone. And especially excited to take Maelie to see the big animals, but I haven't even thought of the logistics. Am I asking for trouble? You bet! I typically go into every situation with as little preparation as possible (or so it seems) so I'm confused by this new feeling sweeping over me as I think about packing for myself and a kid that throws up 87 times a day for 9 days. I think they call this feeling panic. Add in bottles, pacis, diapers, back up clothes for weird weather and my head is positively spinning! Look out friends and family, this train wreck is about to commence!

Henny's nekkid!

"Hey it's you guys! Good to see ya."

"Wasssuuuup!"

Henry's red blanket.

Henry's gone GREEN! This is one of my new favorite onsies. It's 100% organic from WalMart, so hey 'Go Earth!', but I like it because it says 'Be Nice to Your Mama'

4 month check up today!

Henry went in for his four month check up today, and other than some really yucky reflux (which is going to send us to Walter Reed for an appointment with a specialist) he's doing great! He's in between 50-75% of weight and 75 for height, and 90% for that giant noggin! He weighs in at a respectable 15 lbs, 7 1/2 oz and 25 1/4 inches tall! He can roll from his back to his tummy over either side like its nothing, and sits with little support!
It is amazing how big and strong he's getting. Watching him figure things out, like grasping things and holding his own hands is so exciting for all of us! We can't believe how blessed we are to have such a healthy, strong little monster! We also can't believe there are only 20 days until we get to see everyone again! Yea!!

Getting ready for Chapel!


We took some new pictures outside this afternoon. The weather here has been great lately and Henry loves to hang out outside!

Is it football?

Yesterday evening we took Henry to his first soccer game to watch JonJon and Mary. Look! He's a natural!

Sad face! I think he wanted to play too.

JonJon took time out of the game to come over to his biggest fan. Henry was flattered!


Henry's game face.

Good news! Team Unangst (also known as team Biers) won!! We'll see you guys next Wednesday! Good luck friends!!
