Henry version .7.3
I just created a photoset on flickr featuring yours truly and Henry. We took these pictures partly because we don't have lots of pics with me and Henry and partly because my mom expressed concern over the phone the other night that he's not going to be chubby anymore by the time she sees him in two weeks. There's a rumor going around that he's really thinning out, which he may be, but not at the rate that's being insinuated, and these pictures prove that.
Henry sat himself up on Tuesday. I watched him do it, but because I was thinking about my flower garden, it didn't register until after he was sitting there staring at me from an upright position. I completely freaked out. He couldn't decide if he was pleased with his accomplishment or confused and upset. He decided he was pleased because he started laughing, but then again, he might have been laughing at me and all the freaking out I was doing. He hasn't done it since, naturally. What he does do a lot of though is pull himself along the floor to get to things he wants. There's much chattering and grunting and furious leg kicking, but it is consistent forward mobility. The kid's growing up.
