Welcome to the World Griffin Brown Schacht!

Griffin Brown Schacht arrived on Friday, June 1st, 2012 weighing 8 lbs, 6oz (a major difference from Hannah who was about 2 lbs!)! Everything went smoothly, and it was so nice that Kelly and Louis were able to have the birthing experience the way it should be! We were happy that we were able to travel to Florida the day before to help out with Hannah while Kelly was in the hospital and be there to meet sweet Griffin.

The cutest family picture ever! (Not sure why it looks like I took it in 1970, but oh well. I was having some issues with my camera that day!)


It wasn't long after we got there that Landon decided to let Griffin borrow his "guy" as he affectionately calls him. FYI - Landon has 5-10 "guys" that he likes to carry around in his pockets (oh - and a few smurfs too).


Grady love babies, so he was of course very eager to hold little Griffin.


While Kelly was in the hospital we took care of Hannah, and as always the cousins had a great time playing together! The pool was a big hit!

And the beach....


We took the kids to a little festival at a park right on the beach one morning, and they had a cute little train ride. We thought things were going great until the train came back around after the first loop...

Yeah, Hannah wasn't a fan of the train. Since it wasn't stopping, and they still had another loop to go, I just screamed over and over again, "Don't stand up!!" Luckily, she didn't stand up and recovered quickly from the train trauma. :)  (Landon would have done the same thing if he hadn't been riding with Grady!)

We of course had to squeeze in some bowling too!
 
Coming home!!



While we were there Kelly and Louis had a mini birthday party for Grady since they weren't going to be with him to celebrate on his actual birthday.


His straw glasses were a huge hit! We thought he looked so funny wearing them!



Landon even enjoyed a cupcake and some special coconut milk ice cream!


We stopped in Savannah on the way home, which was a lot of fun!
