Outside!

The other day the weather was so beautiful that Brooke (a/k/a The Super Nanny) and I decided to take the babies on their first trip outside (when not going to a doctor's appointment). We decided to just sit in the backyard for a little bit and see how the babies liked it.

Well, Rosemary was NOT a fan of the great outdoors. She fussed for most of the time, especially when we put her directly on the grass. Piper seemed a little indifferent. She kept looking up for the ceiling. But Henry LOVED being outside. He kept kicking his feet and rolling onto the grass. He even pulled up some grass and threw it on Piper!
