| Henry & Jack David Sifford in coordinating jammies |
This week we welcomed Henry's new buddy, Jack Sifford, to the world. Laura actually got a bit more involved than she ever thought when April called her to drive her to the hospital when she couldn't contact Dave. Then, Laura made it weird by staying for 12 hours and cutting the cord at 5am. :) Seriously, Jack is a perfect little boy, and Henry already likes him. We went over to their house on Monday, and Henry actually leaned over and gave Jack a kiss on the head (he actually just opened his mouth and drooled on Jack a little, but we will call that a kiss :) ). I'm sure all parents say this, but it is crazy to think that Henry was actually smaller than that just 8 months ago!

On Saturday was the Trolley Run, which is ran by Aunt Jen and benefits her not-for-profit. Laura ran the run, and Grandma and Grandpa Anderson walked it. Henry and Reggie stayed at home due to it being cold that morning, though they did go to the finish line afterwards to go to say congrats, and to go to the kids walk area. Over there, Henry was reunited with one of the Chiefs cheerleaders that he had taken a picture with last fall (see below for the progression). Luckily, this time he didn't spend the whole time staring at her chest! Must be because he is now on formula!

As I said above, the Anderson's were in town for the Trolley Run, and to see Henry. They brought him a little Easter basket/cart that can be used this spring to pull him around the yard. As always, Henry loved the time with his grandparents!
On Tuesday we all went to a 30th birthday happy hour for our friend Jonathan at the Well. Fun times, right up until Henry decided to have a significant blowout. So, after about an hour or so, we had to leave to go to April's to change our little guy.
Developmentally, Henry is definitely recognizing, and responding to hearing his name. Also, he is starting to try and pull up on the coffee table and his crib, prompting Reggie to have to lower his crib the next day! He is really army crawling nowadays. He hasn't figured out that using his legs would allow him to get to where he wants to get to quicker. But it certainly is hilarious and cute to see it! We have started to introduce more food into Henry's diet. Reggie thought he like peas, but we have figured out that that is not the case. He does sort of like these Baby Mum Mums, which are similar to crackers. As you can see, perhaps the best part about Mum Mums is that Henry can (and does) feed them to Bella!!!
