Welcome Henry Pants! Only 14.5 months late

 Lizzard Loves becoming a mom again - to our sweet Henry Pants!




We welcomed Henry the day after my birthday in 2019 (last fall). Our biggest little man was born via a scheduled C-section which Chris & I compared to going to the dentist for a cleaning. Super chill, nothing stressful or chaotic about it. Don't get me wrong, a spinal tap followed by abdominal surgery is no cake walk. But Lulu's C-section was not scheduled/planned & it felt SO DIFFERENT. Henry Pants was a giant baby, weighing close to 10 pounds and had a huge head :) Looking back at the first photos we have of him - he looks so big while also looking so tiny.



Mom & Dad brought Lulu Bug down to the hospital to meet our newest addition. Its hard to describe how full my heart felt having our newest love in the room with our oldest loves (my parents). It takes a village to do just about everything & having a baby falls square in that category. I was so thankful that Mom & Dad took care of Lulu while Chris & I went to the hospital, it was such a relief knowing she was in such loving hands.



Life was wild that first month of Henry's life, Lulu had just started preschool a few weeks before he was born and it wasn't an easy transition. No one was sleeping much right after we came home from the hospital. Lulu climbed out of her crib for the first time the night we came home from the hospital. Fun skill debut on that one. Chris needed to go back to work 2 weeks after Henry was born, so Marg came into town to help with that transition. Chris ran the Chicago Marathon again, Lulu woke up at 2am that day & didn't go back to sleep. It was a groggy day. But we made me through! Life as a party of 4 (5 if we count Owenn) was off to the races!
