Well the kid is here with us. Connar is his name. He was born at 1:11 pm in room 111, and is weighing in at 8 lb, 9 oz. I guessed 8 lb, 3 oz. Not too bad for an amateur.
Amy did great. I actually almost threw up just a few minutes before the final push. Crazy.
He's been breast feeding and is now sleeping. Amy has been throwing up in between breast feeding and continues to feel light headed and some pain. Here are some pictures of Connar and the doctor. Amy's not feeling too well so pictures of her would not be tasteful.
She lost a decent amount of blood and can't keep stuff down, so please pray she begins to feel better. Thanks so much for all of your prayers and interest. Can't wait for you to see him in person. I think he looks cute.
He's the best! Thanks for sharing! We'll keep praying- what an experience!
ReplyDeleteLove you guys,

We are so happy for you! Praise God! Little C is adorable! His cousins are so happy to have a cousin, and his AUNT AND UNCLE are so excited too! Give him 1000000 kisses for us.
ReplyDeleteCute kid! Your constant blogging from the labor and delivery room cracks me up, too. :)
ReplyDeleteBeing able to follow the blog was amazing. Congratulations to all of you. I had predicted a girl all along, and I don't even mind being wrong. Connar is a handsome boy ( and undoubtedly will be "Snook II" in your family!).
ReplyDeleteLots of love,

ReplyDeleteRejoicing with you! Boys are fun. *eg*
ReplyDeleteAnd wow. . .he already looks so much like a cross between you and Amy. (Usually newborns just look squishy and newborny.)
Good job!
(And praying that Amy recovers quickly and Connar continues nursing well.)
Congratulations. I so excited for you guys. Thanks for keeping us posted the whole time. The anticipation and suspense was killing me, but it was all worth it. Best wishes to you. I'll be praying for the three of you.

Sorry to be one of the last to say 'congratulations' I had to be to work at 2:00pm so I didn't hear about Connar's arrival until after I got to work. Hope Amy is feeling better, and NO Geoff you can't take Connar fishing just yet.
ReplyDeleteLots of love and prayers to you both and the new little Henderson.
See ya all soon
Love ya,
Renee, (and of course Lauren, Derek & Brian
