Henry is now over two months old, and weighed in at 13lb 12oz - which happens to be exactly what Ross weighed at the same age. He is getting chubbier and cuter by the day and continues to be much fairer than the other two, with very little blonde fuzz on his head, blue eyes, and pale eyebrows and lashes. He is starting to smile more and laugh, and is also getting better at being awake and happy even if he's not being held. He's waking 1-2 times a night, doesn't mind the car (as long as it's moving quickly!), and loves bath time. Here are some of his many faces...
We wanted to get one of all three kids, but I'll be honest, this peaceful one only came after a few minutes of fighting over where Henry would sit. As you can see, Madeleine wanted him on HER lap.
A few days later, in a different outfit, and lying on the ground instead of propped on the couch...
Ross helped with these pictures, and even put on his jeans so that he and Henry matched. Ross really only likes "short pants" (aka shorts) so choosing to wear his long pants was quite something. I did get pictures of it, but they didn't turn out as cute as this one.
With Grandpa Don and Grandma Georgia here, we have done a few day trips. One day we drove up to Point Reyes Lighthouse and walked the 308 steps down and back to see it. Unfortunately, it was one of the hottest days of the year (in fact, the hottest it has been at the lighthouse in nearly 100 years), so it was very crowded as everyone tried to escape to the shorelines.
After the lighthouse we cooled off at Drakes Bay and the kids loved playing in the water.Steve and the kids built a sand castle, and just as Grandpa and Grandma came to inspect it,
a wave crashed over and swept it away!
Another day trip was to Fisherman's Wharf, to stock up on salt water taffy.
Steve also took them up to Napa Valley for a day to visit Sterling Winery, while I stayed home with Henry. Those pictures, and more from their visit, including Grandma riding the cable cars, will have to come later when I get more pictures downloaded. We had so much fun with them visiting. It has been so helpful to have them here, and to have Georgia stay on a couple of more weeks. Henry has changed so much in the last month and it's been so fun to share it with them.
