Henry's First Vacation out of State!

Madeira Beach, Fl

Henry had a wonderful first vacation! He went swimming for the first time. He ate rice cereal for the first time. Henry also went to the beach, the zoo, and Spring Training with the Tigers. Henry did such a great job riding in the car, playing with Grammy Matthews all the way to Florida and then back again. He had so much fun! He can't wait to go back:)

Warming up in beach shelter. It was a little windy at the beach that day.

Henry is not sure of the each...too windy!

Henry eating his zoo book he got at the Brevard Zoo. Tasty!

Giving mommy some love at Spring Training.

Drinking water from my sippy cup and playing on a hot Florida day.

We saw many lizards on our walks.

I Love to Swim!

My first time in a swimming pool and I love it. I was a little distracted by the wind in the Palm trees;) Mommy will have to sign me up for swim lessons this summer!

My Sweet Little Valentine!

Adventures with my Sippy Cup!

Exploring this strange and new contraption...

I find the water to be refreshing ...

Until I choke on the water, poor Henry ... Can you see my first tooth coming in?

Cutting My First Tooth!

Henry started cutting his first tooth yesterday.  Soon we will be starting solids. How time flies:)

Henry is 5 months old today!

It's hard to believe that my little monkey is 5 month old today! He is growing up so fast. He is now about 27 inches long. We will find out how much he weighs at his 6 month check up next month.  This month Henry rolled over for the first time, started making raspberries, and played in his Bumbo seat for the first time. He loves to play with his cloth blocks, rattles, keys, chew rings, piano and listen to stories and music.  He also loves to play on his Rainforest gym, swing in his swing, and jump in his Rainforest jumperoo.  Henry is fascinated with his hands and recently has found his feet.  He has begun to grab on to them when we change him. On the down side, Henry seems to hate his baths lately.  I think it is the cold weather.  No matter how warm we make the bathroom he cries bloody murder. Hopefully, he will enjoy his baths again soon. Its hard to believe that he will soon be starting solids and sitting up.  I can't wait to see what the coming weeks will bring!

Getting ready for my first trip out of Michigan. Can you guess where I am going?

Deep in thought...wondering what that white stuff is?

My bug tastes so good!

All snug as a bug!

So happy to be five months!
