Yesterday we celebrated Henry's 11 months of being in the world. We can't believe our baby is fast approaching his first birthday. He is showing more and more signs of closing in on being a toddler. Where did the time go?! Since Henry seems very close to walking, I took him out shoe shopping. Surprisingly, Henry really enjoyed the process of getting his feet measured, trying on shoes, and "walking" to try them out. He gave the person helping us lots of smiles and giggles along the way. In the end, Henry got some sweet new kicks and loved every second in the shoe store (Dad is so proud).
Henry has had lots of first this month. Here are a few...
1. When I sing "If You're Happy and You Know It" he somtimes claps along
2. Started his first swim lessons and LOVES it
3. If I ask "Where is Dad", he will look in Todd's direction (same goes for Riley)
4. Henry likes to give high fives
5. After I make monkey noises or say ribbit, Henry looks at the picture of the monkey and frog in his room (thanks Aunt Kat!)
6. In addition to cruising around the house with the crawl he has mastered, he also likes to walk along the couches, cabinets and window sills.
7. Henry is now just eating food that Todd and I eat...no more baby food (even though I still try once in awhile, he wants nothing to do with it)
We are looking forward to many more firsts in the near future! Here are some pictures from the past month.
