Waking up is hard to do

... That's what they say, and baby Henry agrees.  Especially when it's time for a feeding, and he has been asleep for almost 3 hours.

Baby's first walk

Susannah was feeling well enough to go for a short walk, so we decided to try out one of our slings.

Henry's likes his sling

We had a nice walk on a sunny day, just down the road a piece and back.  Baby Henry fell into a deep sleep as soon as we started walking, and didn't wake up until we took him out of his sling.  Now we have another trick to pull out when he is being fussy!

U.S. Population increased by 1

Henry is officially a US citizen!  Enjoy paying taxes, little buddy.

Our family of 3 leaves the hospital

On March 30th, 2013, at 8:23pm, Henry William McGrath caught his first glimpse of the world. He weighed in at 9 lbs, 2 oz, and 21 inches in length. A big baby!

We were in the hospital for 36 hours, Susannah was in labor for 26 hours, and pushed for 4.5 hours.  It was a long ride, but all worth it in the end!
