Still Here...

I promise I haven't abandoned you all!

I have about a 10 blog posts I've got going in my brain, (am I the only one that writes blog posts in my head?), I just haven't had a chance to sit down at the computer and type them out in the past few weeks.  Y'all know how long-winded I can be, it takes me a while to crank these things out usually.

I just wanted to let you know that despite appearances, I have not actually dropped off the face of the planet, we're just adjusting to life with our precious newborn!  Hopefully I'll be back to posting more regularly soon!

Hope you are all doing well!  I'm also super behind on reading blogs so I feel a little disconnected to the blogging world, so I hope everything is great for all of you!! :)

The Past Week and a Half...

In the past week and-a-half, we...

Headed to the hospital after dinner last Monday night to be induced...


Got extremely a little nervous about Henry's crazy heart rate that would not stay where it was supposed to be:


Ended up in the OR for a c-section, where 15 minutes later we finally got to meet our precious baby boy last Tuesday at 12:59 p.m.:


I fell even more in love with my husband than ever just seeing him looking at his son:



The OR nurses put Henry's footprints on husband's scrub top as a souvenir:

I'm pretty sure it now ranks in his list of most prized possessions.

Henry got checked over:


and we headed to recovery where he had his first bath:

Before checking into a post-partum room where he got all snuggled up:




met one set of grandparents:


and his sweet cousin Adelaide the next day:


We had the nicest hospital dinner I've ever seen:

(which was good because I was STARVING).


Friday morning Henry got all dressed up and looking cute:


and we all headed home.  


Where we've spent lots of time cuddling:


enjoying pretty flowers from visitors:


and introducing Henry to more family:




giving him his first bath at home:



trying out lots of fun stuff we've gotten as gifts the past few months:


being totally and completely milk drunk:


and trying to get a good family picture :




 Basically, just falling in love with every little thing this precious guy does over and over again...





I mean, how can you not fall in love with that face?
