My First Mother's Day

I have had an absolutely wonderful Mother's Day weekend!  My boys really do know how to spoil me :)  I was showered with gift cards and a kiddie pool for Henry and I to hang out in this summer. 


Nick and I took Henry to the zoo for the first time yesterday.  The zoo is my absolute favorite place to go on a nice day, and I hope that Henry will grow to love it as much as I do.  Henry loved petting the goats at the petting zoo.  He is wanting to touch and feel everything he sees right now.





 After the zoo, we went out for dinner, and Henry sat in a highchair at the restaurant for the first time.  He loved sitting at the table with Nick and I and kept reaching for the loaf of bread on the table ;) 



Today, we went over to Lexi and Mike's house this afternoon where Henry met his great-grandma Voss for the first time.  This evening we went to mom and dad's house to celebrate mother's day.  Henry was exhausted by the end of the day and fell asleep in the car on the way home.  We had such a fun-filled family weekend.






Earlier this week, Henry celebrated his half-birthday.  He went to the doctor for his 6 month check-up and weighed 22 lbs. 14 oz. He was 27 3/4 inches long.  Our little boy is growing so fast.  He is currently wearing size 18 month clothes.  He has now started consistently rolling over.  He tried eating hamburger this week and did not like it at all so we are going to try chicken this week.  He loves eating frozen bananas out of his mesh feeder and is starting to get the hang of chewing his sweet potato puffs.  I only have two days of work left, and I am so anxious to start my summer break with my little babe.  I cannot wait to spend all day every day with my sweet little boy!
