In celebration
To celebrate Henry's general success with the potty he and I went to JoAnn Fabrics today to buy patterns and fabrics to make some new clothes! For me!
What? Potty training's been rough on me too!
When Henry found out I was getting Leo a pillow and making him a pillowcase just like the one I made him, he decided he was in dire need of a new pillowcase as well. This is the fabric he picked out. The boy is very secure in his masculinity.
Meanwhile, on Friday night we took Henry to his very first professional fireworks display. He was warned repeatedly and by many different people that the fireworks, although very cool, would also be very loud. He was fine until Megan brought it up, then he just looked really nervous, which either proves he'd heard it enough times to believe it, or he doesn't listen at all to anything either Dave or I say. I don't think he was disappointed after all of the buildup. When we came home he pulled out a book that has a drawing of fireworks and after staring at it for ten minutes pointed out all of the colors he'd seen earlier that evening, the most popular being green.
He's been talking about them nonstop ever since.
