Henry Growing Fast











Mr. Henry has taken quite a growth spurt over the past few weeks. When the nurse came to the house to give him his RSV shot on Thursday he weighed in at a hefty 12 pounds 10 ounces. He his surprising everyone, including his doctors who did not expect him to reach 10 pounds before his next surgery. He is now lovingly referred to as "Chunky Monkey". Mom and Dad cannot seem to fill him up. He has become quite demanding for food. Not only is he still eating his regular bottles, but he is also enjoying bananas, oatmeal, pears, applesauce, peas, squash and much to his dislike sweet potatoes. Hallelujah! Henry is now (once in a while) sleeping up to seven hours during the night. Mom and Dad are finally getting some much needed sleep. Please continue your prayers for Dave, Dana and Henry. They will be going to Children's Mercy in the next few weeks for Henry's heart cath. The doctors will insert a camera into his vein to make sure there are no surprises before his next surgery. This is not a major procedure, but he still will be under anesthetic and that is always scary. In the meantime, enjoy some more Henry pictures.

  1. Hi Buddy. All the way from Ethiopia I send my love. I sure do miss you. You are looking good though. Make sure mom and dad are giving you those hugs and kisses I'm sending each day. We will have your cousin home soon. You two are going to cause so much trouble when you get together to play! He said "Henry" the other day for me and it was pretty cute. Love you Gordo. Keep packing on them pounds.
