So, Henry is two and a half. I can't believe how much he has changed in just the last few months. Right now he loves the movie CARS, and always wants to play with his own cars of every kind. "Will you race with me?" is a frequently asked question at our house.
Another of Henry's favorite things right now is to have his blankie warm. He learned how to heat it up on the vent and then wrap it around himself. Today when I was getting laundry out of the dryer he came over to give blankie a turn. Tonight after being put to bed I heard him at the door saying that the heater was blowing. I went to check on him and he had his blankie all wrapped around the vent in his room. Even teddy had to get warm tonight.
We're trying to teach Henry that he needs to be polite by saying please when asking for something. This is harder than we thought. He will say please after being prompted, but not on his own. When we give him a suggested line like "May I please have the ___?" His response is usually "I can't say that." I must give him credit though. When we are with other people he will usually say please and thank you on his own and is very appreciative and polite.
Henry has his own little personality and it includes a devious side. Tonight was a great example. Scott was taking Henry's blankie and holding it hostage. Henry finally managed to get it and as he ran passed me he says "And I got it without saying please!"
That's our Henry!

Funny ... my little Bella does just the opposite with her blankie. She likes it COLD! Every night before bed, I have to hold it outside the door until it's freezing. Or, in the summer, she puts it on her vent and uses the air conditioning to make it cold. At night, the blanket has to be on top of her covers as to not get too warm. What a wierdo! I think I'm with Henry. A blankie fresh out of the dryer is best!
