watch henry grow

henry is already a month old and we have continued the tradition of the "watch me grow" pictures we started with gerrit. each month we take a picture of henry in a white onesie in the same green chair and "watch him grow."

we always seem to be comparing henry to when gerrit was a baby, so here is a little side by side of each of their one month "watch me grow" photos.

a little preoccupied

so obviously we have been busy with the kitchen remodel, but more importantly we have been a little preoccupied with our newest addition...henry grant.henry was born on may 12 weighing in at 9 lb. 7 oz. and a length of 21 inches long. he had a little case of jaundice. after a few blood tests they decided he just needed a little sunbathing by the window and wouldn't need to sit under the lights in the hospital like gerrit did. i was very relieved! he is doing great now.gerrit seems to be loving his new role as big brother, so far. his first question after he wakes up from a nap is typically "where's henry?" that might all change as henry starts requiring a little more attention one of these days.
