A few Picture updates

Mickey Mouse came to visit Elizabeth and Henry. He brought them two more mickey mouse dolls. Elizabeth was excited.
Giving Mickey Kisses

HUGS


Henry has begun to eat more baby food, however, he requires a drink of Mountain Dew between each bite, or a drink of some sort, and he needs some one other than Mommy to show how awesome an eater he is. It is incredibly frustrating because he's not getting enough calories in during the day. So we'll see, the battle continues. His other stipulation most meals is that he has to feed himself, which is great, it's just fun to clean up afterwards. And wipe his hands every few seconds because he doesn't like to be dirty. Silly Boy!

Mom! You try eating this!!!

Covered with food, and I wish it was as easy as sticking him in the tub afterwards, but I have to cover his Hickman line and all that mess first. So we're not so excited about messiness!

Coke and Mountain Dew Lover!!
And his new jammies! What a cute boy.

Bye Auntie!

We just wanted to say Bye Bye to Auntie Robyn one more time! We miss you already! Henry is trying to give you knuckles. :)
Yesterday before Robyn left we went for a nice long run, and I do mean long, we ran from our house to Green Lake and around the lake and back.. a total of 9 miles. It was awesome! In the pouring rain. Minus the sweat in the eyes that was stinging so bad I couldn't see... It was great! I'm thinking about doing that every few weeks. So much more fun to run with someone. I'll miss you every day Robyn! LOVE YOU TONS!

Watching Mommy play Yoshi World on the DS. He's a quick learner, pretty soon he'll be teaching me how to play.
Puppy Dog eyes

Wanted to show off our new outfits, and she actually smiled! (Well she was actually saying we love you Daddy.) Thanks Mahana! They are perfect.

Cutest smile ever, and we wonder why all nurses are in love with him?!

Daddy Look How Big we Are!!!

Some times we play nicely together, most the time we are screaming at each other and not sharing! But we both love to color or draw.
(Mom discovered that Henry knows his colors!)
I can draw stick figures with really long legs. I really love to draw my daddy.

And I am loving food Daddy! I started eating jelly and fruit sticks and I had TWO bowls of cereal tonight! I'm thinking this is much better than a tube down the nose. (A GREAT ANSWER TO PRAYERS!)

And Look Daddy I can stand up on my own! I love my wagon that Santa brought me and I LOVE to stand. I walked from Annie to Mommy tonight holding onto their arms like parallel bars. I'm getting so strong. I'm trying to learn how to walk before you get here!
The saddest part about Daddy being gone is how much he's missing! These little ones are growing so fast, I'm so thankful for the Internet and the technology that we have that allows us to share the things these little two angels are accomplishing!
We love you Daddy! Hope you have a great week! You're always in our prayers. And Henry is working SO hard to get better so we can come home.

We're back home for the start of the new year. We started the day in patient because we didn't think it would be appropriate to discharge him straight out of ICU. And he's great! Better than he has been for a while. The Doctors were so excited to see him doing well, they really gave him a scare. He is so loved!
His new favorite snack, humus! Definitely mommy's little boy! I LOVE to see him eating! While 2009 was a very very blessed year for us, I am feeling that 2010 will be exceptional as well. I do hope that everyone has a very blessed and joyous New Year! Much Love and Hugs to you all!
