Baby H was born on Wednesday, November 2, 2011

(yep, his birthdate is 11-02-2011, which makes math nerds like us smile)

7 pounds 14 ounces

21 1/2 inches long

Baby H joins oh so proud big sister G, big brother W, and big brother C.  

They couldn't be more excited!

(then again, S and I couldn't be more excited either)

The pregnancy was long and trying at times as was the delivery process, but we are overwhelmed with joy at the addition of another child to our family.  We are truly thankful for all the blessings that God has given us!
