i can't sleep because my son is adorable.

Every day I am amazed at what Henry understands.  Like a few weeks ago when my friend was visiting and I asked Henry if he wanted to show her his bird book and he immediately crawled over to his bird book. 

Or lately I ask Henry if he's hungry and he walks/crawls over to his chair.  I have to be careful about this one because he'll always say he's hungry, even if he ate a few minutes ago. 

Or this evening I mentioned he might get a bath and he got this huge smile on his face and took off for the bathroom.  I wasn't sure I wanted to give him a bath tonight because I was exhausted and it can be a lot of work but after seeing how happy he was, I had to do it!  Then as the bathtub was filling up, he totally tried to take his clothes off but that didn't work very well and he just got stuck.  But he was still happy because he knew he would be playing in the water soon. 

Or when he does stuff just to make himself laugh.  I love that the most.  He thinks it's hilarious to turn off the music on one of his toys.  He practically begs me to turn it on so I do and then he immediately turns it off and screams with laughter.  The more surprised I am the harder he laughs. 

Tonight I can't sleep because I'm thinking about all the wonderful things Henry is doing and the little boy he is turning into and oh yeah, he's snoring super loudly and I'm considering turning off the monitor but his snoring is really adorable so instead I'm listening to it and laughing.

I am the luckiest woman in the world.
