We're back from our short trip to Washington. It was so good to be around family. I say that every time we get back but this trip I was really, really feeling it. It was so hard to leave everyone, even though the little life we've built here is Savannah is (for the most part) pleasant. I just miss having people to share all of Henry's moments with and people to talk to. It sucks that our family sees Henry grow in intervals of six months, I wish they could be there for every week of his life. Tonight, Henry told me that when he wakes up, he gets to see his grandparents and his aunts and uncles. Stop rubbing it in already, kid!

I have some pretty awesome pictures to post from our trip, but until I find my camera cord (Sony cameras are the worst) here's a picture of Henry and his latest obsession- tagging. The other night Garrison and I were sitting on the couch and noticed that he had put a sticker on every piece of furniture, every glass, every book, the TV, and every toy. There were even stickers on the floor and the rug. It's an art, really.

Mother's Day #3!

Getting me "all bubbly in da baff"

Henry on the TV!

Wow, was this really my third mother's day? Crazy! My boys gave me such a great day this year! Sunday morning, I actually got to sleep in. This totally would have been enough on its own but when I woke up, Garrison had dressed Henry (and himself) in a suit. We went out for brunch at this restaurant down the street and then walked around downtown. Honestly, Henry was being horrible the entire time (don't let the suit fool you!). Toddlers really don't get the whole "give mom a break, it's her day" thing. But tantrums and "NOOOOO!"s aside, it was a really fun day.

Also, I haven't been blogging as much lately because of a family accident. I don't know, I just didn't feel like posting a ton of photos while Garrison's family is going through a really hard time. We're leaving for Washington tomorrow morning to be with them. Please keep his family in your thoughts and prayers.

Rockin' Band

We've been doing a lot of this lately, sometimes for like 35 minutes straight. Henry calls it, "Rockin' Band" or "Rock and Rollin' Things". On a good night he even let's Garrison play slide whistle....

Henry Keeps it Interesting...

Now that Henry is old enough to drag every. single. toy. out of everything, I'm constantly cleaning up. I hatehatehate picking up the same dinosaurs, legos, marbles, and trains every night. But! Lately I've been finding his toys in the weirdest places and noticing funny little things he did while he was playing. It's really amusing to me, the things I find. I like to pretend like he's all, "Mom is going to hate cleaning up this mess, but maybe stuffing her shoe full of stickers will make it a little better..."
