Dear Henry

Dear Henry,
You are 2.5 months old now. You weigh 10&1/2 lbs and are 23 inches long. You have settled into our family nicely. I'm still trying to find my rhythm as a momma of two. Some days I feel like I can barely scrape by and getting every one fed is a huge achievement. Other days we get out and about. It's a whole new ball game having two but I'm finding my stride...slowly.

You are a delightful little and we are all enjoying getting to know you. when you were 1month old you started smiling at everyone but me...you even smiled at the living room blinds before you smiled at me...I'm not holding a grudge tho. You smile at me all the time now.



Some things you love: nursing, swinging, being swaddled up, Smiling, being naked, sleeping(your doing an 8 hour stretch at night regularly now), kicking and stretching, baths, and of course your family.
Some things you hate: being burped, wet or soiled diapers(even for a minute), driving less than 50 mph, being cold, being tired, the hours between 5-9pm, and tummy time.

You look a lot like Owen did as a baby but you have some of your own distinct features too(like your nose and eyes). You are very verbal. You coo and jabber a lot and make any needs known with loud and boisterous demands.

Your brother makes up little songs to try and make you happy when you cry... Yesterday in the car he sang "there are no monsters in the car" over and over because he thought that "you might think that there were monsters in our car and that could be why you were having a hard time". You seem to really enjoy the attention.




You are a really sweet baby. I am just thrilled that you belong to us! Can't wait to see more of who you are.
Love momma
