Harry and Sleepovers!

I love it one minute!
I don' t want to have anything to do with it the next!
I am a big help!
The new pose....

While Chad was out of town, Harry and I had a good time decorating the house and "undecorating" the house! We were able to do a lot of lounging around the house with each other. He has started to become super opinionated lately....he grunts for things and prefers being held more than ever. I guess this is just one of those stages they go through. He also does this new pose, he sticks his stomach out like he is going for a backbend....I don't know what makes him do this...but I got pictures! One not so great milestone that we crossed this week was Harry cried when I left for the first time at the church nursery on Wednesday. He was so tired, this was a new thing for me, I couldn't handle it. I blame Chad...Harry and I both missed him!

Some of you may remember when Chad and I went camping with our friends the Fowlers. It was the first time we had ever left Harry over night. The 2nd and 3rd times have happened in the past week. Thursday night I was given tickets to go to Madrigal Feast (our high school does this amazing dinner theater) and Chad was out of town. Mimi took Harry and by the time it was over it did not take much to talk me into just letting him stay the night while she spent a day of bonding with him! It is so important to me to make sure that Harry has bonding time with this grandparents! It is funny how much Harry loves his Mimi, he will sometimes prefer her over me...what a blessing! Aunt Amy took some pictures of one of their excursions.

Friday night our friends the Armstrongs watched Harry while Chad and I went with our friends the Matherly's to a a wonderful dinner and a Marriage Seminar. The most interesting and sad thing we learned was the Arkansas is has THE highest divorce rate in the nation! OK and MS come in a close 2nd. Were surprised to learn that the New England's states have the lowest divorce rate. It is always nice to be reminded to invest in your marriage. Harry, no doubt had a ball getting all the attention from his friends that night. Laurie and Larry have 2 older kinds who are crazy about Harry. They swarm him at church, if I don't see Harry while we are visiting after church, it is sure sign that their kids have him!

Saturday night was Chad's company party in Tulsa. We stayed the night in Tulsa and had a great time! Bobo and Coco took over on the Harry watch this time. Harry once again was given a lot of lovin' and attention with the grands. Needless to say, Chad and I missed Harry so much, we could not get to him fast enough(once we slept in and took our time getting ready)!

I made an attempt to get Harry in the spirit for his first birthday party coming up!
