Brisk Me Away

12 weeks old


Henry is growing too fast for my liking. Sometimes I feel like it is all happening right before my very eyes, but I am missing it all at the same time! Kind of like I am having an out of body experience or something. I have to remind myself to take in every moment, to make a mental picture of these times in Henry's life, because they are fleeting, they are momentary, but, oh, they are so sweet! I hope you enjoy the pictures below as much as I do.


This is Henry's nightly greeting to Steven when he comes home from work.

It is so sweet watching them interact.

This boy LOVES his Daddy.

Maggie got a hot spot this week that she would not leave alone. It kept getting worse and worse so I had to take her to the vet and get a "cone of shame" for her....poor girl. She looks pitiful, doesn't she?? She is doing much better now, though, and nothing is hurt now except her pride a little. :)


Henry is always nice and calm for bath time nowadays. I can't wait til he plays in the water and can really enjoy it.

He looks so big in his tub now compared to the first few times we used it. We have to clean under all his rolls:)

Sweet snuggler




This weekend was our niece's 5th birthday, so we drove 5 hrs to Lexington, KY to be there for it along with a baseball game and 2 dance recitals. Henry did great on the drive up and was a happy boy the entire trip overall. This is us outside watching the kids in the bounce house.

Henry got passed around a lot! Luckily Grandma was there to take him inside out of the crowd and rock him to sleep!
The party was an adorable bumblebee theme, and Heather did an awesome job with all the treats and decorations! She is a party theme inspiration!

Here's Layna with her super cute cake.

Bumblebee cupcakes!

Cake pops-everyone's favorite!
Who doesn't love a bite sized morsel of cake covered in chocolate and placed on a handy stick? I'm a fan. Almost too cute to eat. Almost.

More great black and yellow decor!

The party favor baskets-even Henry got one with his own bumblebee teether in it!

This pic turned out fuzzy, but it was another bumblebee shaped treat-too cute!

Oreos-bumblebee style

Yellow and black yogurt covered pretzels!



Next we went to the ball field to catch Camden's game. Who's that cute little bumblebee?? Heather's dress it the perfect backdrop!:) You can see some of those rolls I was talking about earlier!


Isn't this a great picture? What handsome guys.

And we're not a bad looking group either!

Henry and Heather love each other:)

And he loves to talk to his Grandma!

Future baseball player? He was looking for his big cuz out there!

Getting sleepy....

No rest for the weary-we had too much to do! Next we went to Layna's dance recital. She did great!

It was 2 hrs long and Henry just sat like this the whole time....he was mesmerized by all the lights and action up there!

Cute 5 year old dancer! We went to dinner after this and then back again to see Kaia's recital. Henry watched it the whole time as well! I accidentally didn't take the camera in the second time, but Kaia did awesome!! She even got to go back up again at the end because she made the splits club, so she got a special medal. Way to go, Kaia!
