This little man was born last night at 10:21.
The look on his face cracks me up. This was taken this morning... he was about 11 hours old.
We got into our new room around 2:00 am and he was taken to the nursery to have some tests and get a bath. Dustin went with him, but before they got to give him a bath they decided that he was breathing too fast. They sent Dustin back to our room to wait. About an hour later they decided that he needed to be a 'nursery baby' for the night. Instead of staying with us in our room, they wanted to keep him there and just make sure he slowed it down a bit. Being a good boy, he did slow his breathing down, but a little too much. So... they ended up keeping him from 2:00 am until a little after 9:00 am. He's doing great now, though. He figured it out :-) So all of these pictures are what I like to call "dirty Henry" since these are pre-bath.
Last night I asked my Dad if he thought it was a boy or a girl. He went over to the little wipe off board in my room and wrote this... he was right!!
Right after I delivered, Dustin wanted to go tell our families that "it" was a boy. The nurse told Dustin to wait so that she could stamp his footprints on his arm to show everyone. I thought that was such a cute idea!
Grandma and Henry. (The housekeeping lady thought she was my sister!)
Grandpa and Henry. (Henry, this is the guy that is going to teach you how to play golf.)
We will post lots more pictures of Dustin's family and pics of Henry post-bath soon! (They just took him to do more vitals and to bathe him.)

Isn't it just the best thing in the world to finally be able to look into the eyes of YOUR child? The one you've carried for 9 months, labored over and dreamed about all this time? "Hi, how are ya? I'm... your MOMMY."
