HERE'S HENRY!

Camille and Adam's good friend, Brooke, posted the pictures of Henry below. Not much time to download and work on pictures here! It has been a long day for all of us----but so worth the long day! I wouldn't want to brag-but it is pretty amazing that I now have THREE perfect grandsons!

Henry is a "solid boy"! He has those little rolls that you love to see on a baby and a MOST AMAZING HEAD FULL OF BLACK HAIR! Pappaw Conville needs to run up here and give him a haircut! Our sweet niece, Ann, was born with a head full of black hair as was BC's sisters Nancy & Kathy. Blue eyes and a chin JUST LIKE HIS DADDY-Henry J is a sweet and precious baby!

Camille has done great and she and Adam, both seem to be taking to parenthood without a blink! When we went back late this afternoon, after taking Powers for a walk and giving them a break, Adam had been instructed in bathing Henry, and they both had been given nursing instructions. They were taking to it like "Ducks to Water!"

The medical staff all commented when Henry was born, "LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT HEAD & LOOK HOW BIG THIS BABY IS!" Camille and I had guessed at Henry's size and she was RIGHT ON THE MONEY! She did have the unfair advantage of carrying him around for 9 months!

I am staying with "The Mommie" tomorrow AM while Daddy goes to school. SUCH A TOUGH JOB BUT SOMEBODY GOT TO DO IT!

I must end by saying WE HAVE TRULY BEEN BLESSED!

Congrats! I must say he looks more like a 1 month old than a newborn! lol Just simply beautiful. My son was 4 lbs 11 oz when he was born, so Henry is a bruser.
