Well, Henry is slowly starting to feed himself more and more foods! He picks up little crunchies, puffs, slices of fruit or pieces of veggies, and his water cup. He also holds his own bottle at the beginning but then gets distracted and so we end up having to hold it for him to finish it off.
Its very exciting but kinda sad...he seems to be more and more independent every week. He crawls...rather quickly around the house, following us around the house. He likes to crawl toward Red...which Red isn't too sure of these days. Red growls sometimes at Henry but just as a warning not like he is going to attack him or something. He is just exploring the house! I have never vacuumed more in my life!!! Trying to keep the amount of hair and dirt that goes into/onto Henry's hands/mouth to a minimum. Its fun though! Henry likes to vacuum with me and I get my arm workout too :) Only sometimes do I actually hold him most of the time he is playing in the front room or hanging out in his crib while I vacuum.
I think there are teeth coming through...sometime. Henry has been overly cranky the last couple of days/weeks...and slobbering like he is a leaky faucet. Always has a wet front...which I now put a bib on during non-feeding hours to keep his chest dry. He is so much fun and I enjoy being home with him!!!

He's Done it!
Well, Henry can officially go forward...but still likes to go backwards. Today, he figured out how to take 3 crawling steps forward then 1 back. We are so thrilled! But still kinda wary of him being mobile! Life will never be the same. He gets to one side of the room one way or another. He goes a couple steps...then decides to sit up...then goes another couple steps...then rolls over or something else. Its so fun to watch him!!
We are so excited but that just means Henry is getting older. Our little man is only (almost) 8 months old! I can't believe how fast time flies when you have kids. 4 months and he will be a year old...Oh Man!! Life is grand though! Couldn't be happier (unless we lived closer to family/friends).
