7 Months

Momma wasn't home to take Henry's 7 month pictures today, but Daddy and Nana did a pretty good job. It's really hard to get Henry to sit still anymore. He isn't technically "moving" yet, but he is trying pretty hard. He can now pull himself to standing from sitting. He lunges (and then face plants) when he wants to grab something out of reach. He has finally added "mamamama" to his repertoire of babbles. He is getting much more independent, but continues to have a sweet nature. I keep thinking I can't possibly love him any more... and then he does something new or looks at me with those sweet eyes.

Bend Trip

I got to have some great quality time with Poppy

We did a little hiking (you can't go to Bend and not hike)





I love my banana in the morning just like Daddy



I went for a run with Mom and Dad in my jammies



Nana gave me lots of love and snuggled me when I got sleepy

I learned how to drink from a straw... it's pretty easy

Smith Rock. Henry's first REAL hike

View from the top

It was a pretty easy hike sitting in the backpack with my crackers

There where so many new things to see

My Daddy is so strong!

We had an awesome long weekend in Bend for our friends wedding. We went for walks, runs, hikes, & swims; ate good food, drank good beer/wine; and relaxed as a family. We definitely didn't want to leave. A special thanks to Nana and Poppy for coming along to help with our Henry.
