Woo Hoo! Henry's 2!

Yes, our little man is already 2 years old! I can't believe how fast time has gone. Henry is learning more words every day and is a very active little boy. He loves to run, jump, slide, swing, and play with cars and trains - a boy through and through. He also loves any emergency vehicle that makes the "woo woo" sound. So, for his second birthday we had a fire truck party! We invited some of our family over for pizza and cake - then we got to check out a REAL fire truck at the fire station! Henry loved it!

Henry's more interested in the cool truck:
Mom and her boy:
"Happy Birthday to you"
Blow out the candles!

Grandma and Grandpa Petty:
Anything else in this bag?
Do you think this cool lion shirt will fit me?



Everyone had a great time at Henry's party, especially the birthday boy himself. Happy 2nd birthday, Henry! We love you!

A visit from Illinois

Grandma and Grandpa Petty came for a visit to enjoy Henry's 2nd birthday party (pictures to come in next post) and an early Christmas celebration. We had a great time at the Parade of Lights (before the Petty's arrived), opening Christmas gifts early (acting like dorks wearing the ribbons from our packages for pictures), checking out the Denver Botanic Gardens "Blossoms of Light", taking Henry to the Museum of Nature and Science and watching the Nuggets beat the Orlando Magic! It was a busy, whirlwind trip but everyone had a great time!
