Henrietta Jane was born on August 30th, 2016 at 10:34 AM, weighing in at an even 8 pounds and 19.5 inches long. Our new joy is incredible, but mainly because she sleeps all the time and we are constantly busy chasing Marian and Viola around. In fact we went to a Labor Day party which usually wouldn't have been a big deal, but knowing there was a sleeping baby in the corner (which mind you, never woke up) placed a ridiculous stress on Lori and I. We were only there about two hours before we so so tired we had to bring everyone home. So we're still getting used to playing zone defense as opposed to man-to-man.
Henrietta was a name Lori and I both enjoyed, but little did we know that I had a great great Aunt Henrietta and Lori also had a great Aunt Henrietta she met only once. Jane was Lori's grandmother who was quite a firecracker. Unfortunately, Henrietta is based off of the name "Henry" which means King, sooo... we're hoping she doesn't follow suit and demand royal treatment from her family.
I posted this great video of Marian and Viola meeting her for the first time. Everyone has seemed to enjoy it so I'll post it here again:
We're enjoying our new family and can't wait to share more of our new baby with you!
