Henry's 4th Birthday

On Oct 27th, Henry turned 4 years old! We started the morning with presents.

A bike from Brooksie and Papa.

All Henry wanted was this Buzz. So we bought it for him. The wings are supposed to go out and in with the push of a button.

"You're hungry, Leo? Follow me."

Tonight, I was a little late getting dinner cooked. I have a memory of seeing Henry go into the garage at some point....and I said, what are you doing?.....and he said "I'm hungry"....and I told him to come on out of there, that I was working as fast as I could.

A little later, Leo came through and said loudly (of course, how else does he speak?)..."Dinner, dinner, dinner, food, food, food." And I heard Henry say quietly, "You're hungry, Leo? Follow me." Well, Leo didn't follow him, but that caught my attention. So I followed. And he walks out to a ziploc full of animal crackers that was left over from a huge bag I bought at Costco. The bag is already open, and he just reaches in and snags himself a few.

Leo is so huge and loud and constantly demanding attention. This little guy is going to fly under the radar and get away with everything.

The things that they say

I mentioned to Todd today that Henry seems to have his hands in the waistband in the back of his pants a lot. Sometimes they're just at the waistband....sometimes their in a more....erm....*awkward* position. So Todd noticed him doing it as he left the table at lunch.

Todd: Henry, why do you have your hands down the back of your pants?
Henry: I'm digging to see what's in there.
Todd: Well, what do you think you're going to find?
Henry: Treasure.
(lots of laughing)
Mommy: What kind of treasure?
Henry: Gold coins.
