Terrific Twos!

I decided to put an optimistic twist on my sweet little two year old... He is not terrible he is actually TERRIFIC! I can't believe my little buddy is two.






Here are some fun things about Hennie:

He loves to jump on the tramp and do flips
This kid is talking up a storm
He will pee in the potty quite often but not regularly
He loves to talk to strangers, he has never got the "stranger danger" concept
His new favorite song is Aunt Jamies Boogie Man Song
He loves doing FaceTime with Jamie & Piper And Lita & Tapa he gets so freaking excited!
He enjoys getting scared

All in all he is just the light of mine and many others life! Happy Birthday!

Haircuts

Hendrix got a haircut this past weekend (from the best barber in the world, his Father)! If you or anyone you know is in need of a good cut call me, One will be licensed next month!

Before the haircut:



After the haircut:




Nothing like a fresh haircut, though I think it made him naughtier!

Naartjie Kids Model

Hendrix is featured in some of the fall marketing for Naartjie Kids!

Here are the two pictures that were used in the catalog. They say to stay tuned to the website this month as pictures will be rotating each week!

Song Dedicated to Jamie & Piper

Even though Hendrix only sees Jamie & Piper a few times a year, he loves them to pieces and talks about them all the time.

Today he dedicated Rock-a-Bye Hendrix to them!

Rock-A-Bye Hendrix

Hendrix has been obsessed with his rocking chair! We inherited this from my Grandma Arleen (thanks Traci)! He has been singing "Rock-A-Bye Hendrix on the Tree Top" he doesn't quite know the end of the song, but it sure is the sweetest thing ever. I will try and get it on video.

California Girls!

Hendrix and I made a trip to see our two favorite California Girls - Jamie and Piper! Jared was headed to Philly and 'One was busy with school, so it was just Jamie, Piper, Hendrix and me. I was very nervous about the flights, but Hendrix was lovely! Mickey Mouse Clubhouse DVD and M&M's saved my life. I am such a terrible Mother, letting Hendrix eat a whole package of M&M's on each flight. He was too cute looking out the window wondering where Piper and Jamie were, as if they were waiting outside the plane:) "Jamma where are you"

Our trip was a blast - Jamie lives in a luxurious neighborhood with beautiful landscaping and the most perfect Lagoon (fancy name for swimming pool). Hendrix was a little skeptical of the pool the first day, but he sure loved it the second and third time!



Piper and Hendrix were sure funny with each other. They both wanted the same toy at the same time! Hendrix would rip them out of Piper's hands, but she put up a good fight. Sharing has got to be the hardest lesson in life! I think Hendrix taught Piper some good tricks - like the word "My" she was saying "My Baby" by the time we left (referring to her baby doll that Hendrix was trying to steal). She also learned how to crawl backwards down the stairs - probably thanks to Claire as well who was there the week before us!


Here Hendrix was upset because Piper was trying to push him in the stroller - such Frienemies!


Look at this picture of Piper - she is such a California Babe! Jamie and Jared are going to have to lock her up when she is a teen.


A big thanks to Jamie for hosting us in California - we already want to come back!

18 Months Stats

Hello, My name is Hendrix and I am 18 Months Old!


I am 34" tall (93rd Percentile) and weigh 27 lbs (75th Percentile)!

Here are some fun things about me:

* I am a very social kid, being at a party makes me smile and giggle.
* I love learning peoples names, a persons name is the most important word to a person. This is how I win people over!
* I am a mimic, I will repeat anything you say - so be careful in your choice of words.
* Some of my favorite things to do these days include; reading books, playing outside, feeding Apache and playing with blocks.
* Lately I have been getting hives and my Mom and Dad can't seem to pinpoint the reason behind them. They don't bother me much.

All in all, I am just a fun kid to have around!

Hendrix Reading & Dancing

Bow Chicken Wow Wow

Bow Chica Wow Wow or "Chicken Wow Wow" as Hendrix likes to say it!

We are getting Spring Fever so bad! The weather is nice one day and then snows the next! Poor Hendrix doesn't know what in the world is going on.

Hendrix had a ball on Gma Martha's swing. I swear this kid has no fear! He rocks on Debba's rocking horse, leans his body back and then gets bucked off. He took a pretty hard buck the other day and instead of freaking out, we all started clapping. He looked at all of us like we were nuts! He didn't cry though. Love my little maniac boy!

Day at The Zoo

Hendrix's Auntie Mele took us to The Zoo over the weekend! Hendrix freaking loved every minute of it. Especially the Elephants, seeing his uncles locked up in cages and the Discovery Park where he could romp around! Take a look at all the fun...

Handsome Little Tongan Boy!

I love these pictures my Mom took of Hendrix! For whatever reason, these pictures actually make my little Hendrix look like a Tongan Boy!




Here are some fun new things Hendrix is doing:
1. Trying to jump, but he doesn't even get off of the floor!
2. Riding Debba's rocking horse like a wild Tongan Cowboy.
3. Calling his parents Jenny, Jenny Babe, Jenny Mom and 'One
4. Growing a thick mop of nappy curly hair - and I am trying to keep 'One from putting the clippers to his head! HELP!
5. Saying "Oh Toodles" as he puts his chubby hands around his mouth. This comes from his favorite show Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

Gotta love wild 1.5 year old boys!

Batman

The night in the life of Batman...


Running around calling his Mom "Jenny"....


Figuring out a way to escape into the kitchen....


Refueling on a banana....


Squatting and jumping....


Reading his words....

Chocolate Bliss & 15 Month Stats

We had our annual Valentines Party! Now the party is not complete without chocolate covered strawberries. Yummy!





The party turned out great, but for some reason I did not get very many Valentines made. Boo!



Isn't Hendrix cute in his new jammies? Somehow I didn't get around to posting his 15 month stats. He weighed in at 26 lbs 2 oz (75th percentile) and 33 inches long(95th percentile). Still a tall big boy. He has stayed steady in the 95th for height, we might have a really tall boy! He is staying as cute and naughty as ever. He is 100% mobile, has even mastered going backwards down stairs! He is reading a lot too, thanks to Your Baby Can Read. I recommend this program to all parents. It rocks!

Hey Ladies....

I think we might have problems keeping the girls away. This kid loves the ladies as much as the ladies love him!
