Beach and Easter

This little boo boo is the happiest thing! Here are some of my shots of him taken on my iPhone -  pulling up on everything and "walking" while holding onto furniture. 

We are taking a baby swim class - sometimes he loves it and, well, sometimes he doesn't! 

We graduated to a bigger car seat - poor thing was squenched into that other infant one - now he's so happy to face forward! 

One night after Henry was asleep, I replaced my basket of pine cones with a bunch of bouncy balls - he loved the surprise! 

Can't resist that little dimpled booty! 

Over our Spring Break I got to meet my precious best friends new baby - Kennedy! She is beautiful and sweet and I love her so much! 

Right before Easter, we headed to the Gulf for a little R&R with friends. Our beach trip was wonderful! My mom and I headed to PCB to meet Hollie and her mama with Hampton and Meredith and David. 

We are working on Henry liking the sand! But he sure did look cute! 

It's just JOY to have these little boogies together! 

Here's my walker! He began at 10 1/2 months - so we are going on 3 weeks now. He's so adorable teetering along! 

The Easter bunny brought Henry this Radio Flyer car - he LOVES it! It has a blinker and a little music button like a radio, and a horn too! 

Our little bunny on Easter - his 11 month birthday! 

Sweetest time! 3 generations of Griffins at church on Easter Sunday. That's Grady, Fain, Grayson, Henry, David, and Pop. 

More Easter pics to come! 

Spring at Gibbs Gardens

We had the nicest time at Gibbs Gardens when my parents were here to visit. We'd been wanting to go while the 3 million daffodils were in bloom, and last Friday was a perfect day. The sky was overcast, but it didn't rain. It was cool but not cold. Great day for hiking around - especially with a 22lb baby strapped to you. :)

The daffodils are so enchanting! Just acres and acres of them all along the rolling hills of the gardens.

Henry had a great time! We've been several times before, but he's so aware of everything now and it's fun to watch! 

The view of the mountains is amazing while the leaves are off of the trees.

I don't know who was more excited about the gorgeous koi in the pond - Henry or me! 

We took a little break to have a snack,

and enjoyed lunch along the stream.

Fun day!

Playdates

A few snaps from our weekend:

We played at Gongaman's house

The wagon comes in handy wherever we are!

Henry loved the animals!

Two baby donkeys 

Those curls!!! 

Two goats and the goose

And on Saturday afternoon, we had a fun playdate with Napp!

We went down the slide

And loved swinging

The big kids and the little ones :)

Napp is such a little love bug

Cooper loved playing too! And we missed his mommy, Laura Lyn! But she was having fun too.

We took a few golf cart drives

'

And loved playing in the grass

The babies take their rides seriously! 

Mere had Sampson too...he's awesome!

And we said "until next time" to our friends. So fun to have these babies grow up together!
