Well our baby is 3 weeks old today and oddly enough, it seems like just yesterday that I was in the hospital. I went back to work last week and although I got a lot of questions and weird looks, I'm glad to have gone back. Work keeps my mind occupied and when Henry comes home I'll have 10 weeks with him. It will be a beautiful day when my baby is at home. I have gotten a lot of requests to take pictures of him with average sized things next to him. So I hope this satisfies everyones curiosity!
Look at all the hair he has! It's so soft and I love to play with it.
"One time I caught a fish that was this big!" Alan wanted me to put that as the caption. .
Every so often Henry makes this face and it cracks me up. He looks like he just ate something sour and he bunches his eyes up. I have yet been able to take a picture of it, but this is pretty close. We call it his stink face, and unfortunately his nick name is now "Stink".
Henry has been doing so well! I keep expecting him to have a bad day and to take a couple steps back, but our little fighter just keeps progressing. He is now up to 2 lbs 13 oz and down to 3 liters of oxygen. His PDA (the problem with his heart) hasn't gotten better, or worse. The doctors said that because he is doing so well clinically, they aren't going to do anything about it. They told us that he might even go home with a murmur and if doesn't get better, they'll address it then. But for now they just want to let him keep growing and getting stronger. Alan and I are falling more in love with our little man every day.

Did his hat fit him? Lets get together this week and finish our craftyness!
Boo for work yea for Henry and his fighting spirit! I love the Stink face. For me it is so strange to think about how much I love Brandon and I thought I could not love anything or anyone more and then I had a baby... ;)
I'm so glad he's a fighter! I hope you get to take him home soon! Isn't it funny that the littlest things they do make you want to jump up and down and shout from the rooftops?
he is a very handsome baby! We are so glad he is improving by leaps and bounds. Give him kisses from us. Hopefully we see you Saturday!
I LOVE the picture of him sleeping. His face is so fat! I am going to come up and visit after I get done with finals in a week and then maybe we can go out to lunch to celebrate our children's arranged marriage.
