Children's Museum of Richmond

You had such a great time and were a great baby today for your first trip to the Children's Museum!!

You liked the baby section and your sisters were very good, letting you play in the baby section for a long time before they got bored and wanted to go to the big kid section.

What the Best Daddy In the World Looks Like

 You guys are so sweet.

Daddy is the best!!  He is so patient.

Teething Grumbles

Poor Baby Henry,

You are having teething misery.  We keep you dosed appropriately on Ibuprofen, but you also have a cold and have a hard time breathing, so between the two, you are just plain miserable.

You're sleeping now.  Dear Lord, Let Henry wake up tomorrow feeling a bit better.  Amen.

Love, Momma

Grandpa

How cute is my dad (your Grandpa Hatch)?

 I made muffins this morning and they sank in the middle, big time.
I was bummed, but he said -
 "What? they're perfect. The hole is for the butter to go in."

That's what love is.

Booo!

Happy October!!  We are all decorated for Halloween.

Cookie Monster, tasting particularly delicious on this day, when your poor teeth were giving you a fit.

Beyond Cute. 

You are so close to crawling.  You get up like this, on your hands and knees and rock back and forth, sometimes getting very frustrated.  You can go backwards, but only go forward through a series of rolls and sideways kicks.

Ya so this picture.. not such a great idea.  See those plants behind you?  Well when we got back home from this walk, both your face and my face had little welts all over.  Apparently we were allergic to something out there.  Sorry about that!  Cute picture though.

I love this one.  It's Charlotte telling you to "Say Yeez, Hen-wee"

You and Grandma, you lucky boy.

You and Me

These are some that Grandma took of u, earlier in the week, when we were decorating for Halloween.

Grandpa snapped some great pictures of us just hanging out tonight before you went to bed. 

How cute a pair are we?

Introducing::: Your Teeth!!!!

Yes, you have not one, but 2 TEETH!

Imagine what they'll soon be chomping down on.  Your latest tricks are clapping your hands..

and running in your walker.  You are into the trash, so have to blockade it with the gate.  I tried to get a picture of your teeth, but you were not game for that.  No problemo.
