Henry's Birthday


(please don't mind Henry's band-aid...he also has a love for band-aids, I know nice right on his cheek!)
I can't believe Henry is already 2! Wow! Where does the time go? He is such a joy. His favorite things to do are to play trucks, sleep with lots of toys and pack things in bags. Seriously I think he could be on the show Hoarders! He has a TON of stuff he hides in his crib and sleeps with. He also hides things in the couch pillows, recliner, and anywhere else he can think of. Whenever we don't know where something in the house is we ask Henry.
We celebrated Henry's birthday on his birthday with our family. Jack had a blast going to the store and picking out things for Henry. He picked out chocolate donuts since those are Henry's favorite.

For Henry's present he bought him a shopping cart. Jack could hardly wait for Henry to open his things. Too cute! Our tradition is the birthday person gets to pick what the family eats for supper (a tradition my mom started with us when we were kids). For Henry we had homemade Mac&Cheese and broccoli. Henry LOVES broccoli. Steve made cupcakes for us to eat for dessert. Kim joined us too! Or "Tim" as Henry calls her.

Just this past weekend we had Henry's party. The Bolands, Kim, Bapa and Knuckles came. It was a fun night! We had pizza for supper and then Steve's amazing cake....Monster Truck! It was a great weekend, I didn't cook at all...my kind of weekend.

Those 2 years flew by! I can hardly believe how big your boys are!

I think it's so funny that Henry loves to sleep with all that stuff-- like at Timbuktu this summer. :)

Miss you!

Sounds like a wonderful birthday celebration. I love that Jack was so excited to pick out things for his brother. They are such good buddies!

Great cake!
