There are a lot of things missing around our house...namely, a very expensive remote control that does it all for our big(gest) TV with all of its little recievers and speakers and such. With that missing, I can no longer watch TV in the living room without Ross' assistance. We have been very sure that Henry is the culprit. Well.....a few days ago, while I was on a very important phone call with my sister, Leah, I noticed Henry going in and out of the master bedroom, taking various items with him but not bringing them back out. So, I checked up on the little guy. Not missing a beat, he realized that I had caught onto him, so he stood completely still looking very innocent. He had my phone charger in his hand. I asked him what he was doing and he just smiled, as usual. I finally found out....I looked under a part of the coverlet on my bed beside the mattress and found an unbelievable stash! He had hidden books, my sunglasses, his new "power tool" set, some hand sanitizer, vitamins, toys, framed pictures from around the house, you name it. It was all in his new stash. He is really into hiding things from us and going there to get the when he wants to play with them. Ross was so excited! He was sure the remote was there. It wasn't. Bummer. I just have to find that other place that he's hiding things.....

Finally...a blog with pictures!
Okay, so I am no better at blogging than posting pictures...but I have much to update you on!!
Pregnancy update: 28 weeks and counting! Benton is growing nicely in my tummy and I have posted a picture below to prove it! I have my glucose test this week....the three hour one. I failed the little test, as usual, so I'll keep you posted!
Benton's room is almost complete! Sweet Ross has been working so hard in snippets to get it all done. Henry wants to move into Benton's room...but not the finished room. He wants to stay in there with all the tools, paint, brushes, open light sockets, etc. He doesn't need a bed, toys or anything else a normal room usually offers. Just the tools and the danger. He likes to work....what can I say!?!? I do not have any finished project pics just yet....but here are a few of Daddy and his little helper....and his big helper, Drew.
Henry went to the dentist for the first time. He adores his "teetch"(teeth) and everyone else's too, so I was hoping he might be interested enough to like it. He didn't love it, but he didn't hate it either, which to me, was a victory. He has perfect teeth, no cavities and we do not have to go back for a whole year! All good news. His dentist is absolutely fantastic...he was so great with Henry. It was very quick and mostly painless due to his skills. I was so worried that my child would be "the one they talk about for days after we left." But I think they forgot us as soon as we walked out the door...just how I prefer it!
Henry has really turned into the little helper around the house, and not just with the tools, but for mommy as well. He loves to load the dryer and push the buttons to turn it on...mostly push the buttons. He also likes to unfold the folded clothes and "hang up" daddy's shirts. He spends a lot of time in the laundry basket, as we produce more dirty clothes than many families of five. I am convinced that in a few months, he will have daddy's undershirt fold downpat! Here are a few pics of him both getting some things dirty and helping clean them up again!!
Henry also currently loves to sing "Itsy Bitsy Spider," "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" and "Old McDonald." Go figure that he thinks Old McDonald had a puppy is the most important "farm animal" there is. Those of you who are around Henry lots know that puppies are where it's at! No dog yet...but we'll see...
We had a fantastic summer in South Alabama and are truly sad to see it end...but with the fall comes much excitement for us: trips to the farm, fun holidays, a new niece in October and the arrival of our sweet baby boy! So, here are a few more pics from the last month or so....I cannot wait to start sharing some pics from the upcoming events in the fall....the more I share, the closer I am to my Benton being in my arms!!!
