Pinky

Henry's preschool class has a special friend named Pinky - he's a pink flamingo.  Every weekend (or in our case, 2 weeks because of all the school cancellations we've been having), somebody gets to take Pinky home, and then he goes back to school the following week with a scrapbook page full of his adventures while at our house.  Henry's been talking about Pinky for months now - and the time has finally come.  Wow, Henry was PUMPED when I picked him up from school and he was carrying Pinky's suitcase.

First things first, he wanted to play Duplos.  Henry has been crazy about spelling lately.  He wants to know how to spell everything, so naturally he wanted to spell Pinky's name right away!  


Phil and Henry (and Pinky) got to get out on the lake to do some skating when we were actually having a warmer day out there (in between these frigid-bitter-freezing-cold days we've been having).  

Pinky joined us for Henry's Snowflake Dance at his preschool.  Didn't I have such a handsome date for the dance?!  Henry was kind of in awe at the dance, checking out what everybody else was doing, not really knowing what to expect, I guess?  I went up to dance with him at one point and he pushed me away and said, "Mommy, I don't need any help dancing.  I know how!"  Am I already embarrassing him in front of his buddies?  

Pinky couldn't miss out on our first trip to the new Buffalo Wild Wings that recently went up here in Blaine.  They even have "iPads" (as Henry called them) to play games while you wait for your wings, fabulous!

Pinky watched us make Valentine's Day cookies one day.  Henry does love a good baking project, especially one that involves frosting and sprinkles :)

For Pinky's final adventure, he got to come to Sesame Street Live with us this past weekend.
Well, Pinky, it's been real.  Time for a bath and time to move on to the next house :)
