A Boy, a Box, and a Bear...


Henry has a new play area in the living room --a space created by the disappearance of a sofa! We can all play together with the growing number of toys including the "Hide Inside Surprise Box" and Henry's stuffed animal "guys."

Strollin', Strollin', Strollin'...


"Strollin', strollin', strollin', keep that stroller strollin'!"
Henry loves his new stroller seat!

Sleep is Good...

After sleeping through the night, happy Henry loves to play!

Yes, it's true! Little Henry has slept through the night (approx. 8 pm to 7 am) five consecutive nights. Henry's Mom and Dad are very proud of the little guy and are planning to catch up a bit on their own sleep. Sleep is good...

"Yes, Henry, There Is A Waterfall In New York City."


Henry loves to visit this out-of-the-way-yet-in-the-middle-of-everything spot! Plus, we can't wait to visit the Public Art Fund's New York City Waterfalls "exhibit" this summer! http://www.nycwaterfalls.com/

New PJs!


Henry loves his Oobi pajamas --soft and cuddly!

Road Trip: Xing and Henry Hit Primanti's



Okay, this fantastical road trip is powered by Photoshop, but it WILL happen someday...SOON!

Introducing the Big Boy Stroller Seat


The bassinet attachment for the stroller is officially retired. Today Henry reveled in the "big boyness" of it all, sitting upright in his new seat!

SNUGGLE POWER!


Henry teaches us everyday about the beauty and the power of a good snuggle...
Thank you, sweet Henry.

"I Did It, But Where Am I?"


Today was the day that Henry rolled over (back to front) all by himself. His picture doesn't really show how surprised he was or his look of "where am I?!" However, he seem to be VERY happy with his new game!

The Great Outdoors!



Out on Shelter Island this weekend, Henry got a tour of the yard and and an up close and personal visit with the beautiful trees. He seems to like the new outward facing position in the BabyBjorn carrier!

Henry and Hannah!


Henry does a lot more smiling and laughing these days --including some of the sweetest smiles directed at Hannah. (In this picture there was no smile from Henry as a lamp had clearly snagged his attention).

Grammy and Papa Come to Visit!


Henry's grandparents (from Michigan) came to NYC for a wonderful visit. Hannah took Grammy and Papa to see "Wicked", we also enjoyed "South Pacific" at Lincoln Center, but the greatest "shows" were Henry on his activity mat and Hannah's MacBook Photobooth creativity!!!

Fathers' Day Festivities!

"Seriously, Henry, switching channels back and forth between the Tony Awards, Tiger Woods, and the NBA Finals is NOT as easy as it looks!"


Hannah's pop art masterpiece!


Henry and Xing

What an amazing day! Hannah, Henry, and a wonderful visit from Henry's friend Xing. (Yes, Xing's awesome parents came, too!) Hannah and Henry were VERY generous with gifts for Dad and the extra events of the day kept us busy: A visit to the Tony Awards red carpet with Hannah, U.S. Open coverage, and the NBA finals. Happy Fathers' Day!

AOL, Warner Music, TMZ, and Henry?


This morning we looked at the list of occupants at 75 Rock where Henry goes to his "school", Bright Horizons. The other tenants are Time Warner media companies including the gossiping folks at TMZ.com! Very funny.


Henry and his teacher, Lavita

Henry is spending a little more time at "school" and really seems to be enjoying all of the action including the morning walks to Central Park.
His classmates are all really cute and spirited --his teachers are great.

Another Sunny Day, Another Hat, Another Visit to the Doctor!


Whoa, Nelly! Another hot, hot day. Henry wore his hat to today's doctor visit. Very functional. Very fashionable.

Henry now weighs in at 14 lbs. 4 oz. and he is 24 1/2 inches tall!

Summer Sun, Hat for Fun!


Sometimes Henry likes wearing a hat. Oh, and sometimes he does NOT!

12 Weeks Old!



Henry is 12 weeks old today. We are celebrating on Shelter Island. Henry started his day VERY early with some activity mat wriggling and shark fishing...

"...Everyone Knows It's Henry!"


Quite often we sing to Henry --some ridiculously original, made up on the fly songs and sometimes pop hits of the past with new lyrics. One of our favorites is an oldie from The Association called "Windy". So you can all sing with us the new lyrics are:

Who's peekin' out from under a stairway
Calling a name that's lighter than air
Who's bending down to give me a rainbow
Everyone knows it's Henry!
