These Boots Were Made For Splashing

 

We had to rotate Henry's shoes because his feet just went through a growth spurt. I pulled out these boots and thought, "great, now we can just rinse off the dirt". I wanted Henry to like them so I told them that they were his "SpongeBob boots". He got this huge smile and said, "Ooh, wow...BumBob" and couldn't wait to get them on. Now we can't keep them off of him. And, what's great is that he can put them on without our help. Granted, they are usually backwards, but he is motived and trying. He knows how to take them off before coming inside too. Our kid is growing up by leaps and bounds!

110% Boy

 

Dave found a dirt bike that he wants to fix up for Henry. Little by little Dave has been cleaning it and fixing this and that. It's not a huge priority because the bike is meant for an older child-maybe aged 7-8 on up. Dave was outside and he looked over and Henry had climbed up on it. There he was making all of his: car, truck, motorcycle, airplane, and boat noises that he makes, "Varoom!, Varoom", "errrrr", "eeeee", "squeal", "blam, bam, crunch" . And, as usual, his voice was in proportion to the size of the toy. I swear I think I heard him all of the way in the kitchen. :) One of my friends said, "Henry isn't just 100% boy...I think he's 110% boy". I think she's right. Maybe I ought to get him in the kitchen more often?

Henry at Powell's

A few weeks ago we were in Chico and took Henry to Powell's Sweet Shop. What a neat place. Just like an old fashioned candy store. We enjoyed some gelato and watched Henry get a "sugar high" right before his naptime.
