The Girls Came to Sip -n- See Henry!

It has been a busy couple of weeks!

Just two months old and Henry already has the ladies loving him ;) Some of Mom's best friends came over to have a sip-n-see at our house, and boy did Henry love the attention. Hillman, Sweet, Robyn, Deavon, Ellis, and Ashley brought over wine (yummy) and showered little Henry with gifts. He got the chance to be held (which he loved) and take pictures with all of the girls. We think he has a little crush on Ellis ;) Henry was also visited by his friend, and future partner in crime, Hudson. We can't wait for those two to play together....TROUBLE. Aunt Susie (Missy) saved the day again and babysat so that Mom and Dad (who was in a fantastic mood after the LSU / Kentucky game) could meet everyone for dinner and drinks at Tillman's. We had such a great time and miss the girls terribly!

We are enjoying every minute with this little boy. He is changing by the day.....growing bigger, making more sounds and giggles, smiling, kicking his legs, holding his head up....it is amazing to watch! He seems to be holding on to his full head of hair, but it has been getting lighter in color. His eyelashes are so long (unfair), and his dimples are becoming more pronounced. He is starting to stare at everything, but his favorite things to look at are Dad's LSU posters from the National Championship. Figures!

Here are some pictures from the past few weeks....enjoy!

PS - sorry for the sideways pictures.....this site will not allow me to rotate them.

The Photo Shoot

Here are a few of our favorite pictures from our baby announcement "photo shoot". This was when Henry was about 4 weeks old, and he already has his daddy's smirk! :)

Henry's different faces

Though hard to catch on camera, Henry has started to smile and imitate faces that we make at him. If we stick out our tongue, he sticks his out and smiles....it is the cutest thing! He is beginning to form a personality with little faces, noises, and gestures. He is also holding his head up for long periods of time while gazing at the lights or ceiling fans. Mom and Henry had a nice and relaxing Saturday while Dad was at business school. Henry also got a special visit from Missy :)

T.M., Big Daddy, and Aunt Jensen came to visit

Breakfast time!

Eat, Play, Sleep (repeat)

Henry is 4 weeks old today and is a growing boy! He still has a head full of brown hair that stands straight up, and he is getting stronger by the day. He manages to get his arms out of the tightest swaddle, and loves to play on his activity gym. He had his first experience at a restaurant, and Mom and Dad got to have a margarita :) Time is already flying by!

Henry is 3 weeks old!

It has been a busy 3 weeks for baby Henry. We had our first pediatrician visit, and the little guy seems to be very healthy and is putting on weight! Thank you Kaki for attending.....Mom likes to "overpack" the diaper bag, and wouldn't have been able to get there without her help!

Henry got to meet his Aunt Kristen, Uncle Scott, and 2 cousins, Larsen and Camille. Larsen and Camille are so excited to teach little Henry lots of things! He also got his first opportunity to pose with his Dad and his Big Daddy...three generations of HCG's! T.M. came to stay with us for 5 days and we don't know what we would have done without her. She cooked meal after meal, and played with Henry for hours on end. Mom and Dad even got to go on a date night while she watched him! Thank you so much, T.M.! Aunt Megen came over for a visit and fed Henry (and Mom) lunch. He likes sleeping on her shoulder :)

Henry got to watch his first 2 LSU games with Dad and was extremely excited the Tigers dominated both opponents. He got a little fussy when Virginia Tech scored their only touchdown, but Dad explained that it was against LSU's third string defense, and Henry then calmed down. :) We went over to Kaki and Papa T's for Papa T's birthday, and although they were not victorious, Henry was in full support of the Frogs in his TCU gear! This was extremely brave of little Henry, given that the entire house was filled with Longhorn fans! He got a chance to visit with Aunt Meg, Uncle Troy, Uncle Alex, and his cousin Wyatt too....

Bath time was quite an adventure. The little guy actually likes the warm water until it gets on his head. Both Mom and Dad seem to get more water on them than Henry during this process. We have had lots of tummy time, and he is in love with his bouncy seat. He also loves the theme song from Rudy, which Dad plays for him while he is feeding.
