Tomorrow I'm Going Away

Tomorrow I'm going away for a short vacation. I haven't visited with Henry Thomas since last Saturday. Let's see, that would be about four days ago and tomorrow I'm leaving for another four days. I wonder how much Henry Thomas will grow and change while I'm gone?

I certainly would not say that I am overly focused on my grandchild (ahem) but it is very easy for him to be the focus of my daily thoughts. Having raised three baby boys myself, I'm aware how fast they grow and how quickly the time passes. I want to enjoy each minute with this little one.

Hug the baby for me Tom until I get back and can visit again. Be safe family.

Sweet Family!

Tom and Emily have wanted a family for a long time. They are natural parents as becomes apparent when they are in any gathering where there are children. Henry is a lucky little guy.

You and me and baby makes three!

One Week Birthday - Loved Being Held By Grandpa Henry and Uncle Jon

Today Henry Thomas is one week old. I was delighted to have an unexpected visit with him when my birthday included not only an outing with Jon and Patty to some really neat places but they also took me to visit Tom and Emily and Henry Thomas. It was super nice as Grandpa Henry got to hold Henry Thomas for the first time. Uncle Jon also had the pleasure of checking out his new nephew.

Grandpa Henry holding me tight!

Uncle Jon testing my grip!

Five Days Old - A visit with Henry and Family

Yesterday I went for a visit to see Henry Thomas, Tom and Emily at home. We had a great visit and I got to share some really nice things. Best of all was holding the baby for the times when Emily was preparing things for him or doing something for herself or Tom. Tom made a fabulous late breakfast for us of Corned Beef Hash & Eggs with Oat Toast. Yummy. Tom is a good cook. He used to cook and bake as a boy growing up.

I found out that Henry Thomas has strong lungs and vocal cords. He loves to be held and settles into blissful sleep. He did manage to surprise his Mom with a little spray during a diaper change so she has offically been christened as the Mom of a boy baby.

I helped with a few things around the house, hugged the family and drove home a satisfied Mother and Grandmother. See you again soon family. Hugs Hugs Hugs!

Easy does it, Daddy's here! 

Blissfull Sleep of Angels!

Only Fifteen Minutes Old - What a Beauty

It is hard to believe that a new born can be so pink and healthy looking. Very awe struck Daddy with his long awaited son.
