Weekly Update

Hello all! This will be a fairly boring post since I am sans photographs at the moment. My darn computer needs a new cord to plug it in so until I get a new one I don't have access to my pictures.
Speaking of pictures, it seems to be the theme of the week. The owners of Mike's antique gallery also have a (non-antique) shop on Hawthorn and needed a model for some of their kid items. Henry and I went down there on Friday and had him model some of the items. The pictures turned out so cute! He totally hammed it up for the camera. Then today we took Henry into Penney's for some more pictures. I wish I could say it went as smoothly today as it did at Lotus. :( The first photographer we got scared him with some weird noises he made which I suppose make other kids smile, but they made Henry cry. After trying to get him to calm down I realized it was a fruitless endeavor so we rebooked another time later in the day to go back and try again with a new photographer. This time it went much better, but even so Henry was no where near as comfortable as he was at Lotus with Mike. Hmm...maybe I should see if they'll do some regular pictures for us sometime!
We carved our pumpkin tonight...yes, only one. Why make it difficult? However, I think I might get another one because as Brett was carving this one I got the idea to carve "Henry" into it instead of a regular face. So I think I will end up getting one more and doing that. He'll get a kick out of that. He's getting really good at recognizing his name...and especially the letter H. He kept saying he saw an H the other day at the store and I didn't see where he was looking until I looked up and, sure enough, he was looking at the sign above the milk coolers that said "Fresh Milk." :)
