Happiness

I hope everyone enjoys following this blog about our family. I am really enjoying documenting our lives to share with our family and friends. I want to let you all know how blessed I am to have a beautiful and healthy son. Today, Henry is two months old. It brings tears (happy tears) to my eyes now as I am writing because I love my baby sooooo much. I had a great life before but now it's complete. Aaron and I just stare at him and can't believe it sometimes we have a baby but nothing could ever change that. We love our baby boy:)

Mommy and Daddy took me to Damn Good Pies for dinner and then later we went to the Square to look at the Christmas lights. We had a really long day and I was a good boy. I really like all the red, green and white lights. It kept me entertained.

and more friends!

Yesterday was truly a very special day at my parents home. Henry's two month party. In our Chinese culture we have to have a party for baby either on his two month day or before. My mom prepared tons and tons of foods for all our Chinese Family Friends to enjoy with us. My mom always go over the top. It was a huge success. Probably around 70 people attended. Henry was totally into it. He loves to people watch!

Also, another great celebration...my parents have finally retired. It was nice to finally celebrate with our family friends. We also were able to introduce the new owners of the restaurant to everyone. I wish my parents well and the new owners lots and lots of success!

Again, Thank You Ye Ye and Nai Nai for making this day so special for mommy, daddy and I.

My Boys....

Like Father, Like Son!

This was taken a few minutes ago. Both of them still asleep in the bed. Check out there left arms. They are in the same position. Isn't that funny?!

Today is going to be big day for our family. My parents has prepared a huge lunch party at my the house for Henry's 2nd month. In our Chinese culture we must give him a party before his 2nd month. Later in the afternoon we are going to a Couples Baby Shower and then later we are going to the Fayetteville Downtown Square to see the Christmas Lights and the Christmas Parade. Gosh....I am already tired. Just thinking all the things we have to do.

I had a great birthday this year.
This year has gone by but I can't say fast. The first nine months went by very slow but the last two months are going by way toooo fast. I love that Henry is here. We are having the time of our lives with our little man. It's soooo weird.... the minute he came into this world everything just changed for the better. Life was good before but now it's fulfilled.

Thank you all for making my birthday soooo special. I love you all!

This afternoon we went to Hudson Krauft's 3rd birthday party at the Little Gym in Rogers. The kids had sooo much fun. Henry and Kinley are still too small to play with the big kids so they chilled out with each other.
