Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow! - Week 17

Jessica, Audrey, and our guy
Henry was trying to emulate Laura's best dance moves!
This week wasn't extremely eventful for our guy. However, there were a couple of 'firsts' for him. On Friday, Reggie was let off work early due to a systems upgrade and planned to finish up mulching leaves in the yard. However, Henry ended up needing to go to the pediatrician for his congestion. As it would turn out, he had a mild ear infection, which was his first sickness requiring antibiotics.

This week also brought with it Henry's first experience with snow. He obviously is too young to think much about it, but it was fun to set him in it! We wanted to make a little snowman, but time got away from us. Who would have thought that having a baby would do that to your free time.

Yes, there is a baby in there!
Visits this week included a trip out to Laura's friend Jessica's house to visit her and her girl Audrey. Also, one of Henry's adult girlfriends, Emily, came over for a dinner date.  We think there is a battle line about to be drawn between Sara and Emily for girlfriend supremacy. That is a bit of foreshadowing to a future post, though :)

There weren't any real developmental achievements this week. Henry is still drooling like crazy. Reggie found out that he loves to be lifted up as if he were flying (i.e. Super Baby) Superman style. Also, he apparently likes to sit on top of Reggie's shoulders. It must be the idea that his is so much higher than everyone. Bella does the same thing!
