Harry's Snow Day

We had our first snow day here in Charlotte this week. We took Harry out to play in it for a little while. Cousin Addy was nice enough to let Harry borrow her snow suit for a couple of months. It was perfect. Harry really seemed to like the snow until we laid him in it. In the last picture you will see Harry is not very happy. My girl- friend Jenna saw the picture and said "Harry is a Florida boy at heart" I thought that was great! Joe of course swears he was just tired and hungry.

Christmas

The Schoenecks had a wonderful first Christmas with Harry!! We were blessed this year and got to spend Christmas with both Gi and Papa and Grandmom Buggy! Harry had a wonderful time, or so we think he did! He watched while his mommy and daddy opened up all of his presents.

After Christmas we headed up to the cabin to celebrate the New Year. We had such a great time, hanging out with Jeff, Jill, Addy, Carly, Mom, Dad, and Becky! Harry went to bed at 6:30PM and I had a really hard time staying up to ring in the new year. Finally Midnight arrived and we toasted to a great 2011. On Saturday mom made some delicious black eyed peas and tomatoes. As well as some fried corn cakes oooh so good! Grandma would be proud!

Harry laughing

Today Harry and I were playing on his activity mat, and I like I always do, attempted to get Harry to smile. Well, today I got better than a smile back, while playing with him. Joe is great about making characters out of all of Harry's toys. He names them all and has great accents for each character. Today, I was trying to sound like Joe and do Ollie the Octopus. I am not sure if Harry was laughing at me trying to copy his daddy, or if he really just liked Ollie the Octopus with the high pitched country-Spanish accent. Whatever it was his giggles were awesome. This is the first time we have heard Harry laughing, it is great!!! I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Thanksgiving

Bath Time!!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving this year in Charlotte, North Carolina. Harry had a great time playing with Grandmom Becky, Gi and of course Papa!! Joe fried us up a delicious turkey, and Gi brought the famous chicken and dressing (GG's recipe of course) and we wrapped it up with pecan pie and pumpkin cheesecake. On Saturday morning we headed down to Atlanta to visit relatives. Harry got to meet his cousin Parker and Beau, and got a chance to hang out with his Great Grandmom Joyce. Then we made the trip to Chateau Elan, a winery in Atlanta. Joe had a conference at this resort/winery so Harry and I tagged along. I was hoping to take Harry on his first winery tour unfortunately, the weather was rainy and cold, so Harry and I hung out in the beautiful hotel room while Daddy worked.

Harry's 1st Halloween

We had a great Halloween this year. Harry actually was asleep by 7:00PM so Joe and I stood outside and handed out candy to all of the trick -0r- treaters.
