Henry's Here!

Baby boy Henry Terry Faas arrived Feb. 28, a day before I was scheduled to be induced. I've never gone into labor on my own so I was kind of excited that he decided to come early. I've been wanting to know what that would be like...and now I know. :) My actual due date was March 5. I had my first labor contraction at about 8:30 am on that Monday morning. After a trip to Sam's club and Walmart at about 1:00pm that day on the way to the hospital to get last minute baby things, Henry arrived safe and sound by 7:00 that night. Labor and delivery were textbook perfect and we feel really, really blessed. He was bigger than Eli but smaller than Emme at 9lbs. 3oz. We just love our big boy and he's doing great. Here are some pictures in random order.
