LaTour Creations

Laura finally got her first real break from being constantly tethered to Henry this past weekend when she and some of her friends took off to New Hampshire. I wasn’t too worried about being home alone with the boy for the weekend, but I was a bit concerned that *he’d* mind, which would have been a problem.

Luckily, we all emerged unscathed. Henry had a fit on Sunday afternoon, but everyone eventually calmed down and things settled back into place. The problem was that he needed to eat, but just wouldn’t, despite everything in the house being offered. As that persisted, his hunger turned to crankiness… Eventually I got him to eat oatmeal, which I don’t think he’d ever initially turned down before.

Looks like it might happen again in a month and a half or so. Laura wants to go to her cousin’s wedding in May, but with gigantic estimates for lead paint removal staring me down this summer, it’s hard to float travel for all three of us. So, what’ll probably happen is we’ll just send Laura solo for another weekend. I’m sure she won’t mind.

The video here pretty much speaks for itself. He’s only two, but this was actually Henry’s third Christmas, and the first that he was able to express vocally.

OK, so this site has been completely neglected for quite some time now. Again. Sorry about that. To make up for it, how about some pictures of Henry rocking out? I had them on my Facebook page, but figured the general, Henry-loving public would also want to get a taste.
