| Grandpa Rick and Grandma Rosie |
Week 7 brought a return visit of Henry's grandparents from Carl Junction. They were very excited to see him, and see how much he had changed since they last saw him in August. They were even more happy to experience a relatively cry-free night out of Henry since they were sleeping in the next room. Of course, I don't know that any amount of wailing would overcome the snoring coming out of 'ol Grandpa!
We tried to hit up a pumpkin patch, but the whole family came down with colds during the week that we couldn't kick before the weekend. Henry has certainly become 'one with the bulb' since we have to suction his nose multiple times/day. It just kills you as his parent to hear him cough/sneeze, and then cry about it, knowing that he feels bad but there isn't much you can do to help him. By the end of the weekend, he was feeling pretty good, though.

Henry has started becoming much more aware of his surroundings, and has started to purposefully play/hit with some of the toys that hang over his bouncy seat and carseat. This has become our first video that was shot with our video camera. From the vaccuum of being his parent, it is really cool to see and makes you happy, however when I step back and think about the fact that we are getting enjoyment watching him swing his arms at a plush shape, I start to think that we have lost some 'coolness.' :) Also, he is smiling a decent amount nowadays, which is amazing to see for the first time. He continues to grow up rather than out. We still have to put him in newborn clothes/diapers b/c the kid just refuses to plump out!
