It's an ALL HEATH post

Looking back, I guess this is not the first post of all Heath. They say you take less pictures of each successive child. Well, in my case that has not been so. As I have progressively become more interested in photograpy, my picture taking of Heath has multiplied! And he is so cute and doing so many cute things all the time, I thought it was time for a post dedicated to just Heath. (Kyle will be soon to follow, you can bet!)

A few months ago I wrote that Heath did a cute sign for "Where did it go?" and he raises his hand up to almost touch his face, looking totally serious the whole time. I caught it on film...I guess you can't say that anymore with a digital camera!..Well, you get the idea. Recently, he doesn't put it so much in front of his face, but more to the side. He purposely throws things to use the sign. It is darn cute. Here he is...

For his birthday we got him this RadioFlyer wagon thing. He loves to get in it and have us push him. He climbs in and out over and over. Some other notables--he signs more, book (so cute...he puts his hands together, then opens them, interlacing his fingers), and please (rubbing his tummy/chest).

He loves balls and that is his new word, "Ba". He also loves balloons and will see them outside of the car and start reaching and grunting like crazy. He loves to sit on laps and will turn around and back up into our laps for a book, or just to cuddle.

He still loves his burp cloths and binkie and with those two, he usually calms right down if he is fussy. Here he is at lunchtime (see the avocado smushed on his forehead?) playing peek-a-boo and he has his burp cloth with him. He loves these games and has a definite sense of humor. He cracks us up.

Lately he is into EV.RY.THING! He empties drawers, cupboards, etc. When he is hungry, if the pantry is open, he will either bring us a snack he wants, or he will start trying to eat it through the package! Same with bread. Brings the whole loaf over to let us know what he wants.

He has seemed like such a little boy in the last week or so as the weather has warmed up a bit. He loves to be outside at the park or just in the yard and can open the front door, lay down, turn around and out he goes. He doesn't want to come back in either.



What a funny face!
And look at those baby blues!

These pictures were taken after he had his first chocolate. LOVED it. I ran a couple of actions from Heather Ward Photography (thanks Heather!) on it in photoshop to get the black and whites...

This one is milk chocolate...

and this is dark chocolate...

YUMMY! Which picture do you like the best?

COLOR, MILK CHOCOLATE, OR DARK CHOCOLATE??

He is looking so grown up. Kate is also into everything, in fact gets into more trouble than Zach these days. I love the the last pic, dark chocolate, is that what you meant? But for the taste, milk chocolate for sure, if that is what you meant.
