Henry Turns TWO.

Wow. I haven't been blogging for awhile. But we've been boring. And busy. 

But Henry turned two. So that requires a post. 

The doctor's appointment went very well and he is growing like a weed. We've been blessed with a great eater and sleeper. I think this is because he is such a big kid. The pediatrician mentioned that growing happens mostly during sleep and therefore lots of growing means lots of sleeping. When we went to the doctor Henry wasn't very keen on standing on the "adult" scale so the measurements for him were more of an estimate. But he's still off the charts on height and in the 85% for weight.

He's learning everyday and it's amazing. He knows his colors, his letters, and has really started putting together sentences. Which also means that he is repeating a lot of what we say and we have  to be more careful. 

HENRY JOSEPH MEYER
2 Years Old
38 Inches
31.5lbs

We started the day with breakfast on the back porch. Henry absolutely LOVES eating outside. He'd eat outside in the winter in his coat if he could. So I made him cinnamon roll waffles and strawberries and enjoyed the beautiful weather with him. 


Henry then went to the sitter's and had a wonderful day there. I thought about keeping him home and spending the day with him at the zoo or playing but I know that he has so much fun there that it would've been selfish. 

When Nick got off work we went and picked him up and brought him home he got to play with the new water table that we got for him. 

First he came into this:

Then he went out on the back deck and we played with this for awhile.

He loved it. He loves playing in the sink and taking baths. So we thought this would be a great gift and so far he's loved every minute of it.

After we drug him away from it we went over to Mellow Mushroom for pizza because it's probably his favorite food after fruit. 



Overall it was a great day and we had even more fun celebrating him over the weekend with family. 


Happy Birthday little man.
