Henry is 22 months old!

Henry is 22 months old today!! (whew - only 2 more of these until he is 2 and we start officially counting in only years!)

Here is a picture of him on this day last year:



And here is is today - with post-nap bedhead:



And in the tub:



Henry is now fluently using 2 and 3 word sentences (he is into labeling everything when we are out and about, so from the stroller all you hear is "Big red truck! Green coat! Train tracks! Yellow shoes!", etc etc etc.

His favorite phrase is "sit down". All you hear all day long is:

"Mama, sit down. Mama, sit down here. Mama, sit here floor. Mama, sit down NOW, here! Here! Please? Please? Please? NOW!"

This does make it difficult to get things done.

In addition to his train fixation, he now (oddly) has a fascination with fish. Much time is spent reading the first 3 pages of "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish", as well as the one page of "Busy Town" that shows a fisherman and fish.

On Friday Henry and I head to Florida for a visit with Grandpa and Nene (and some much needed warm weather!). It is my first time flying alone with Henry, so everyone send good, easy flight vibes our way!
