Happy 2nd Birthday Henry!

Birthday Pancakes and 2 candles! I love icing! Coloring with Froggie on my new table Time to party at The Little Gym David Atwell Striking a pose Trying to sneak an early cupcake from Kaki Henry and Caroline swinging like monkeys I'm sneaking up on CC, Kristen, Ben and Reid chat in the background....our children were WILD! Daddy loves to throw me in the air! All 3 Henry Cole's Jumping jumping Big and TM Henry, Caroline and Gracie Golden on the parachute Kaki and Papa T wipeout! when can i dig in?! yes!! Our Family.....so hard to believe it has been 2 years since this: After 40 weeks (and one day) of pregnancy, 12 hours of labor, and at least 9 bottles of champagne, little Henry has graced the world with his presence. He weighed 8 lbs 14 oz at birth, and was 21 1/4 inches in length. Though his mom and dad are certainly biased, they firmly believe that he is the most beautiful baby boy ever born. He has sadly inherited his father's hairy genes, but he fortunately makes up for it with his mother's dimples (two on each cheek!). It's safe to say that his mom and dad have never before loved anything so deeply. Little Henry's first few days have been blessed with an overflow of love from grandparents, aunts, uncles and even a few cousins! He did his very best to smile for the camera, but far too often the photographers captured him during his favorite time....the "milk drunk" deep sleep. Henry and Dad took their first walk on Saturday evening, with Drake along for protection and support. Though he didn't say much, Henry's reaction to his surroundings clearly indicated that he's a fan of the neighborhood. He had a particular fondness for the two houses displaying LSU flags! Henry's remarkable journey has only just begun, and he looks forward to sharing countless pictures and stories with the close friends and family he's so very lucky to have in his life. Until next time.... Mom, Dad, and Baby Henry
