Half a year has passed since Henry joined us, and he's getting more animated every day. His newest skill is moving all over the floor inchworm style. He's pretty efficient but we can still keep up and for that we are grateful. Babyproofing has begun in our house but is far from finished. Henry is more amused than ever by the pets. He's very strong and likes to "stand" on you, he'd much rather do this than lay down or cuddle. He isn't sitting unassisted yet. His communication these days is often grunting, it cracks us up. He's still smiliest in the mornings. Most of the time he remains a Serious Man, though, but is about the most content baby I've ever met. Sometime in the next few weeks, Henry will probably be eating his first foods that are not milk. He's not really shown any interest in food so far and is perfectly satisfied with his breastmilk so the introduction will be slow. We're looking forward to showing off some messy food photos and Foster is so ready to gobble up whatever falls to the floor. This dog has been waiting 6 months for this, and we've told him that all the neglect he must feel since he was upstaged by a small human will be worth it when the food begins to fall from the high chair.
Please enjoy Henry at six months old!
