The Pizza Family: January 2010

Mommy's Sous Chef

Henry is such a good helper. For example, when I am cleaning or cooking in the kitchen he almost always keeps me company. He will inspect all my cooking tools to make sure they are properly cleaned. He separates the dirty ones from the clean ones by throwing the dirty ones on the floor. After he has finished sorting he begins "cleaning" them himself. This is done by covering them with his saliva of course. Then, he leaves them there for me to see what a good job he did.

Goggles

I have been trying to get a good picture of Henry with these nifty goggles on. He is not a very good sport. Yes, I tried to explain that they will be great fun to look at when he is older but that didn't help. I did get a few but not any with them over his eyes. He would look so great in them. His dad loves to wear goggles, usually its a the pool...usually. Anywho, Here's what i got!

Front Window

Henry has a new hobby. He likes to look out the window and watch all the goings on. I told him that he had better watch out because he may see something he shouldn't like in the Alfred Hitchcock movie Rear Window. Poor Jimmy Stewart got in a whole heap of trouble and ended up with two broken legs. Henry listened patiently (HA!) and then went on drooling all over the window.

The erie view. Who knows what he could witness out these windows!

Ahhhhhhhh!!!!!! I tried to warn him!

Henry's New Habitat

It was pretty hard living in an attic for 2 months... Dont get me wrong, I am grateful we had family willing to put up with us. However, I am soooo happy to have a place of our own again. Henry may be happier than I am. He has enjoyed exploring his new surroundings.

So happy to have a home again!

Finally he has his own room! No more living in closets or offices!

A place for all his things.

So happy that he has to sing a song! Like mother like son!

The Ping Pong Bandit

Danny likes ping pong. Really likes ping pong. He was so excited when he saw a poster at BYU advertising a ping pong tournament! Could there really be people who like ping pong as much as Danny? Apparently yes, and some who like it even more... There were 67 people who signed up to play in the tourney.

The official brackets. Geeze, someone has way to much time on their hands....

There he is!

The Ping Pong Bandit is ready for action. Thanks to Melanie and family for the awesome Christmas present! He looked like an idiot wearing those shorts to school when it was snowing but the shirt made up for it... a bit.

His first match. I couldn't really watch the whole thing. Everytime I would watch a point he would lose the point. Henry was supposed to watch and give me updates but he was more interested in the blue curtains. So I thought for sure Danny had lost as he walked over with a somber look. He had won! Jerk.
