Here Comes The Bride..vroom vroom!

What a wonderful time we had at Auntie Anna and Uncle Andy's wedding in Portland. Henry was a trooper the entire trip and showed us his very social side! The highlight of the trip was that Bill, Henry and I were all part of the wedding. It was very emotional for all of us because we are so excited for the future ahead for the Piper's. Henry even got to ride down the aisle on his race car, which as pretty cute. Auntie Anna was a gorgeous bride and her groom Uncle Andy also looked pretty handsome. We got a chance to see many of Bill's Aunts and Uncles and Henry had quite a fun time. It was so nice to have so much family around to help us keep Henry occupied. I am thinking of sending Henry to Bill's Aunt Ann in Whitefish Bay, WI because he loved her so much!! Henry also got to see his 4 year old cousin Oscar and look forward to being a big boy too! Thanks to Bill's Aunt Leslie the two of them got to run around with their super man capes on...so cute! We just had a great trip!

Grandpa Steve got to hang out with us before and after the wedding in Redmond and he and Henry had lots of fun together. Every morning we walked up to Tully's to get coffee and Henry and Grandpa Steve shared a muffin and did lots of giggling.

Harmonica

Here is a quick little video of Henry playing his harmonica in the car on the way home from Auntie Anna and Uncle Andy's wedding! I will have another post up soon with all the wedding pictures and details...we had a great time!

Poppy Moe

Henry's great grandfather, Poppy Moe, passed away yesterday. He had a long and wonderful life and had the privilege of passing away in the company of his wife and 3 children in his home. My mom and her 2 brothers have taken care of him for the past 6 months in his home, which was such a special gift. We will miss him greatly but feel honored that Henry got to spend his first Christmas with him.

Knee Walking

Henry has perfected the art of walking on his knees. It is so funny to watch and I realized I needed to take a video to capture this funny time in his life...enjoy!

All Grown Up!

Bill and I sent Labor Day weekend celebrating Kate and Tom's wedding in Sun Valley! It was so much fun! Henry stayed back in Redmond with his Auntie Tink and Uncle Dave. They had a wonderful time and Henry took to them really well. When we returned we could tell he had felt so loved! At first sight of Bill and I at the airport he just laughed for like 5 minutes. Thanks to Tink and Dave for not only stocking our fridge with yummy food but for taking such awesome care of our little guy.

Bill and I both thought Henry had developed so much in the days we were gone. I swear when we left he was a baby and when we returned he was a little boy. He is constantly laughing and throwing himself all around the house. He is "talking" up a storm and kissing us about every 5 minutes (my favorite part!) He just seems so grown up. Here is a video of Halle and Henry playing together.
