little man in a monkey suit

Last week Henry's mommy and me class took a field trip to a pumpkin patch. 

learning to crawl

Baby boy has moved on from scooting and is ready to make his move as a crawler. Here's some shots from a photo shoot we did the other day. He's got most of the mechanics there, just hasn't yet put them together. The big next step will be moving his arms to move forward.

scary, since this house is no where near babyproofed.

active Henry loves to scoot

We've neglected the blog lately...

Henry has been getting over his first real cold (thanks to day care) for the past couple weeks. But he hasn't lost his trademark smile and happy disposition!

On Friday he stayed home from school and figured he would have some fun moving around the house...

First I found Henry off his mat, couldn't figure out how he got there!

Then little man starts scooting backward, and having a great time with it

Here he has made it all the way to the guest bathroom (looks like he is planking in this one)

He almost made it to his bedroom before pooping out. He then took a long nap.

 Here's a couple videos of the action:

Henry thinks his dogs are funny

Henry visits Salt Lake

 Henry paid a visit to Salt Lake City this past weekend and finally got to meet two of his great-grandmas, his great aunt and some family friends.The whirlwind tour included his first visit to the mountains and sightseeing at all the places where his dad grew up. 

Henry and his look of concern. Wondering what on earth his ancestors were thinking...

Meeting his great Grandma Kay. She's 95 and has been waiting all her life to meet him. She was beside herself with joy (she even said so several times).

Just missing my dad for 4 generations of Danas and Wonnacotts

Henry's first trip to the mountains, he was asleep for it. Turns out a drive up to the top of Millcreek Canyon was just enough to get him to sleep through the toothing pain and remaining concern over the temple visit.

Giggling at his great Aunt Pam

more Henry noises

our little boy is a big fan of making noises and laughing. this time around he was amused by my barking

first day of "school"

Henry started day care this week. So far he has been a model student and all his teachers love him. Here's some shots from his first day:

He went down for his first nap right away
