Getting Around

So it is official, Henry no longer does the army crawl, he can now crawl on all fours. Along with this new success came added trouble for me! Henry can now get anywhere and everywhere his little heart desires. This often means pulling up on me while I'm cooking, "helping" me load the dishwasher and watching Kevin snow blow. He is also walking along furniture and getting more steady on his chubby legs to stand alone for quite a while. He has all the courage in the world, but will cry at most falls, usually because he is frustrated. Along with this new sense of freedom came a new side of stubbornness and a great need for Independence. Although Henry clearly understands the concept of "no," he does not like to listen and HATES not getting his own way. We are consistent with trying to teach him the difference between right and wrong and safe and unsafe and I'm sure he will eventually understand and hopefully will listen.

The purchase of a gate is coming soon!

Isn't this outfit great, Papa got it in Alaska!








Watching Dad snow blow.
