April and May! And a New Way of Viewing Hank!

Hunting Eggs, Flying Kites, Going on Hikes, and Driving Tractors

Henry has been super busy this month. He enjoyed attending the Austin Kite Festival with his dad, going hiking with his new friend Jacob, driving a tractor with his g-daddy B., and much much more. He can pretty much say anything that comes to his mind. He thinks the words "gof" and "gak" are hilarious and he substitutes them for everything and laughs. He loves cleaning and helping out around the house (a trait from his mom), and likes cooking and knowing all of the words to tons of songs (thanks to his dad). Henry's Easter was lots of fun. He didn't have tons of respect for the hard-boiled eggs though. He thought is was fun to smash them, over and over and over.

HENRY IS TWO!

Henry celebrated his second birthday in style! He played his heart out with about 15 of his little friends at his party. He was very excited to be the center of attention, and his friends and he had a blast running around together.

Thanks to all of Henry's family and friends for making it a very special birthday!

Here are some photos and videos from the day (plus some from the previous weeks).

Hank is a new kid every day...

I guess every parent at some point thinks that they are the first to be amazed and astounded by their kid and that their kid is the most brilliant human that ever walked on the planet. Henry comes out with this stuff that just proves that he is taking it all in and he totally gets it. Today we passed a Honda Element and Henry said that it was Minsok's car and then that it was David's car. Yes, Minsok and David both drive Elements. I just can't believe he knows this stuff. Right now he's really into playing with rocks (encouraged by his grandmom's rock collection), being "tall" (which means that he climbs on top of everything he can to get as tall as possible), and drawing with chalk. Today he climbed up on top of a big rock and said "WE HAVE LIFTOFF!" He cracks us up. Here are some shots from the last couple of weeks.
