Family

     We are so blessed to have such close relationships with our family.  Sandra (Grandmommy) and Aunt Whitney were just here for a week visiting, and Henry loved every second of it!  Robert and I are so grateful for the help.  I can't believe that I actually got to eat 3 meals a day and go to the bathroom when I wanted to!  It is amazing that such a little person can be so demanding.  A few days ago Henry had a diaper change that required 4 adults to clean him up.  It was like a circus with people running in and out of his room...he even hit the curtains.  I'm sure it was an experience that Whitney and Sandra won't forget!

He loves the outdoors!

   I can't believe how much he changes every day.  His little personality is really starting to blossom.  He has very expressive facial expressions, going from smiles to a furrowed brow in a matter of seconds.  His favorite place to "talk" is his changing table.  After a diaper change, he usually coos and smiles and even makes what sound to us like little giggles.  Everyday he does this more and more, and it completely melts our hearts!  There is nothing better than gazing into his sweet eyes and seeing a smile spread across his face.  He is such an incredible blessing!!!

     Robert and I are celebrating our 1 year anniversary this weekend!!  We are heading down to my parents to celebrate.  We're going to go to church at St. Ignatius where we got married, and out to dinner at Paddy Mac's where we had our rehearsal dinner (and to reminisce about Ireland) while Aunt Maryellen and Great Aunt Mary babysit our little man.  Hopefully the frozen wedding cake will taste good one year later...
