Today my little man turns 3! Henry is so excited that it is his birthday - he tells everyone that he is "free" now! We started the day with hosting his playgroup this morning and tonight we are going to see the Harlem Globetrotters (Hopefully he will enjoy the spectacle even if he doesn't understand the game...). We will have his birthday party with family and friends on Saturday.
Here is a new and improved list of Henry's Top 10:
1. Henry gives the best hugs and loves cuddle...at least for 20 seconds at a time.
2. Henry is a talker! He has so much to tell us.
3. Henry is obsessed with certain DVD's, especially Ice Age. He doesn't necessarily need to watch them but he like to talk about them and carry them around. He takes 3 or 4 in his backpack when he goes to Grandma's house.
4. Henry loves to eat Macaroni and Cheese, PB&J's and Chicken Nuggets...and not much else. (Except for breakfast when he does eat oatmeal most days.)
5. Henry is very concerned with whose turn it is to go to Grandma's house, Emma's or his - this is one of his favorite topics to talk about!
6. Henry loves driving over railroad tracks. Nothing makes him happier than when we go out of our way, just so we'll have to go over them. If we see a train in the process, Henry's life is complete.
7. Henry sleeps with about 6 stuffed animals and his aquarium in his bed. He is very specific about "who" he wants there and knows instantly if "someone" is missing.
8. Henry holds my face gently between his hands when he really wants me to listen.
9. Henry has to cry every time he is dropped off at school - but only until Daddy or I has left his line of sight...then he is fine and has a lot of fun.
10. Henry is the sweetest, most loving little boy in the world - how did we get so lucky!?
I was thinking back to when Emma turned three. I thought she was such a big girl then. Maybe its because Henry is the younger sibling but I still see him as being my baby. I suppose that will change after these twins come...
