Mini Alan

I thought it would be fun to post some pictures of Alan and me when we were babies so people could see who Henry looks like. I think Henry looks a little like me, but he's definitely Alan's son.

This is me at 2 1/2 months. So cute!
Henry at 3 months. Still rockin the big cheeks!

I'm not sure how old Alan is in this one, but he looks like maybe a month or two old as well.

3 Months

My how time flies! Henry J is already 3 months old now and I decided to have a mini photo shoot in his bedroom. I did it right after he woke up from his morning nap so I could get the happy boy and not the "I'm SO sick of pictures Mom" boy.

Henry hangin out in his bachelor pad.

We went to the doctor this week and Henry is doing very well. When you have a preemie baby you have to correct their gestational age. So rather than 3 months old, they are considering him a newborn right now. He is 20 inches long and weighs 7 lbs 9 oz. For his weight he is in the 50th percentile and in the 75th for his height. If we went by his actual age he'd only be in the 5th percentile. Our pediatrician always reminds us how cute our little man is and she's a professional so it must be true! I promise I'm not biased at all.

Summer Fun

Now that Henry is home and our house is so close to being done, (I promise I'll get pictures up soon) we have been able to actually enjoy ourselves. We went over to Spencer and Lana's and had a yummy BBQ and enjoyed the beautiful weather. I love the lazy summer nights.

Henry and Champ

My friend Nicole was about a week ahead of me in our pregnancies, and she just had her little boy, Champ, a little over a week ago. Henry and I went over to visit and I couldn't resist taking a picture of the two little buddies. Henry looks like a little bobble head compared to Champ, but besides their heads, they are pretty close to the same size. I can't wait till they get older and can start playing together.

Henry's Due Date

I wanted to do a post today to celebrate Henry's Due Date Day. Alan thinks it's cheesy of me to do it, because "every baby has a due date", but I think it's a little different with us. Henry was born 87 days early and it really amazes me what we have gone through in his short time with us. I will always be grateful for my little man, and all our friends and family who showered us with love and prayers. I also wanted to show my cousin Esther this picture of him next to the bear she made him. I unfortunately didn't get a picture right when I got it, but just to put things into perspective, Henry is just 5 days shy of 3 months old and he is just a little bit bigger than the bear. Thanks again Esther, we LOVED the gift.

Henry is pretty patient with me, but sometimes he can't handle the kisses, hugs, and pictures anymore.

Look at the droopy cheeks. He looks like that dog on the old cartoons. (Don't mind the date on the picture. I keep forgetting to change it.)
