Go Team Canada!

As you all know, the Olympics begin today with the opening ceremonies at 2pm.  I am actually at the cottage as you read this, so I won't be able to watch them live.  But no matter, I'm sure we'll catch all the highlights when we return.  

I was kind of torn on what hat to do this week.  I wanted something Olympics related, but Summer Olympics just don't have many hats.  

Unless of course, you count the laurel wreath:


He refused to put his water down.  It's all those athletic activities he did just moments before:


I loved the 2004 Olympics in Athens when they crowned all the medalists with laurels.  Here I finally got him to put his water down:


Thoughtful (he looks like an ancient philosopher here):

Looking down:


And here it looks like he just ate something sour.  I have no idea what this look what all about:


Go team Canada!

Where's Wald---errr, Henry?

Happy Friday Everyone!

I hope you are all enjoying the heat we're having (if you are in southern Ontario anyway, maybe elsewhere too).  Since we've been pretty much housebound today enjoying the air conditioning, I had enough time to finish this week's hat a bit early as well as stage our photo shoot.  

The idea for this week actually came from last week.  I thought the beanie made Henry look a little like Waldo (of Where's Waldo? fame).  I did a little research to see exactly what Waldo's hat really looks like, and here we are!  I also happened to have the perfect shirt to complete the costume.  I think I actually buy these red and white striped suits because I love the Labyrinth.  I'm not going to tell you how awesome it is.  In fact, I'm going to assume that since we're friends, you've seen it, so I won't even tell you what it's about or what it has to do with red and white striped baby suits.

I digress, back to the pics:

Did I forget to mention the pipe-cleaner glasses?:

It was hard today to get little man to smile/pay attention/take the toys out of his mouth

Chewing away (tooth eruption #5 is imminent):

Snarfing at me:

Almost a smile, and look, nothing in his mouth!:

What a funny little man, he makes me laugh all day long.
