Scott's latest invention for Henry

We were given a rocker as a shower gift. Henry especially likes to lay in it in the kitchen and watch us while we cook, and also lay in it and look out the window at the trees while we eat at the dining table. He also sleeps in it, but we constantly needed to rock him to get him to sleep, and of course, we have better things to do than rock our child to sleep! Ha ha, just kidding! Anyway, Scott went into his garage workshop one day and came out with this.

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!

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!
