Henry's First Christmas


What an amazing Christmas season.  We traveled down to NOVA to celebrate Christmas with my family on December 20-24.  His grandparents spoiled him rotten.  He got many clothes, toys and even a new car!  Granted it is a plush toy car but they are setting a precedent that will be hard for the us to follow.  Thanks again Mom and Dad, we enjoyed getting to spend Henry's first Christmas with you both.

Christmas Eve we traveled back to PA to celebrate with the Lemker's.  Henry was again spoiled this time getting more clothes, toys and a nice (and I'm sure very loud) leap frog learning music station where he can play instruments and learn both English and Spanish.  Henry even got a book, bib and shark all they way from Sydney Australia courtesy of his future god parents Mike and Jeannine.  Thank you to all of the Lemker family for your generosity.  I know Henry will enjoy all of his gifts and they will make us think of each of you.

Merry Christmas




Well, the lights are finally done on the house.  It only took two Saturdays and a solid 6-8 hours outside, however I must say, every night when I come home I love seeing them all lit up.

December's almost halfway gone!


We are a bit behind on our posting so I'll try to keep this brief. Jenny took Henry for his 3 month pix @ JC Penny which we should get in a couple weeks. It wouldn't have been a party unless we had a potty explosion halfway through a photo shoot so Jenny had fun with that.
Last weekend we got our Christmas season started right by purchasing a tree, putting up lights outside and adding many, many decorations around the house. I got Tom's extension ladder so more lights will go up this weekend along with more pix!
Jenny took Henry to meet Santa this week which was a fun experience. He didn't smile but he didn't poop himself so I consider that a moral victory.
Jenny and I took several photos of Henry as we tried to get a Christmas card photo done but we didn't have a lot of luck. The slide show above are most of the out takes. We'll have some more photos after the weekend when we complete all the decorations. Hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season!
