Here are some of the latest things Henry does to crack us up:
He tries to put his clothes on by wrapping them around his neck. (Sorry for the bad lighting, I was trying to get this shot before he realized what I was doing!) After he put this pair of pajama pants around his neck, he crawled out to the front room to show Matt his accomplishment - he was so proud of himself.

He also loves to make silly faces. I even saw him practicing in the mirror the other day, haha.
His third 15 month old accomplishment is... crawling! Haha, yes at 15 months he has now started crawling normally - except when he pushes cars across the kitchen floor, that still requires the scoot. He can walk, and he used to be very interested in walking, but since getting sick last month he has given it up. One of these days he'll take off across the room I'm sure. What's funny is that we found him kickin' back in the infant swing in the church nursery last Sunday. That really cracked us up! He's a small guy (5th percentile for his 20 lb weight and a little higher for height) and he doesn't walk, so of course he looks like a baby! There was a school-age girl helping out this Sunday and she had taken Henry under her wing which he of course loved. He still doesn't like playground swings, but I guess he still loves that good ole infant swing! What a nut!
He's also cutting all four eye teeth at once. For every set of teeth he's cut, he's had completely different symptoms. For the front 8 (starting at 3 months!) it was tons of drooling, biting and not eating, the molars brought a runny nose and a mild diaper rash, and now these four current teeth have brought lots of nose rubbing and a "need" for the pacifier. The kid is destined to have braces anyway thanks to his parents so we're letting it slide. Until now, he's always tossed his paci back into the crib before getting out so hopefully we can head back in that direction one of these days!

He is too cute for words!
He and Grace are certainly similar! She's only 19 pounds, but then she's a girl and she's a few months older. They're about in the same percentile! She is also cutting her eye teeth, which has led to much use of the pacifer as well (and diarrhea, a bad diaper rash, drooling, and overall crankiness).
I really want you all to come down and visit. It's been crazy-stressful here, but it would be a fun distraction to have you come! Could you all come this Thursday? My mom will be here too, and she'd love to visit with you and Henry!
oh my gosh- my boys do the "wrapping clothes around the neck" thing too! It's hilarious!! I just want to ask them, "do you REALLY think you're accomplishing something there, son?" HA!
