for almost a week. Henry has been sleeping in his own bedroom, just down the hall and mostly sleeping through the night. According to the doctor 6 hours is sleeping through the night and he has been (most nights). Its glorious to be able to sleep those six hours except our other kid, Red, likes to jump up on the bed sometime during the night and causes us to wake up to either move over and make room or to kick him off the bed and back to his bed.
Henry has been exploring the state a little bit. We went to Fresno last weekend to watch the Spartans play the Bulldogs...wasn't a pretty sight for the Spartans. We, Henry and I, left at halftime. We stayed at the Gerlach's home where Henry got to visit with a 7 month old. Henry played with his toys and read his books. It was great fun! It was also very exciting to where Henry might be in 5 1/2 more months. Lucas was much more active and playful. We are excited...but not rushing the time we have with Henry at almost 7 weeks old. Red went too and got to run around their backyard...drinking the pool water because it was there :) even though there was non-chlorinated water about 10 feet from the pool.
This weekend we are headed up to Reno to watch the Vandals take on the Wolf pack, hopefully winning. It will be a tough game and Brad is excited to be able to wear Vandal gear and cheer on the Vandals with all his might! Henry will too! okay, he will probably sleep through the whole game...but in his heart he will be cheering for the Vandals.
updating what the Poe's are doing to keep busy...and what we are experiencing as time passes with Henry and Emily!!

1 month check-up
Just hanging out...with my new toy from Matt and Kathy Witty
I am getting too long for my Newborn clothes
Such a cute little face!!SO...Henry is a chunky monkey. He is now 10 pounds 2 ounces...already!! He is 21 1/2 inches long...grew a whole inch in a month. He also got his second Hepatitis B shot...which he didn't like. I am not looking forward to the next appointment because thats when he gets his first immunization shots.
Go Vandals!!
So the family...the Poe's & Grandpa Pat & Char all came to San Jose to visit, meet Henry and go to the Idaho/San Jose State football game.
Pat & Char, Les & Karen, Stefanie & Delilah, Ray & Tannya, Dave & M.A. were all here. We hung out, everyone got to watch Delilah and Henry hang out together for the first time. They were so funny! We really should have put them together before this...but we just kept running out of time. We went to dinner at Original Joe's...Italian. It was the best Italian food most of us had had.
It was so exciting to have everyone at the football game. Henry and Delilah both went to the game and did very well. They both had to eat during the game...Delilah didn't like the loud cheering but other than that she and Henry did great. Brad had to work the game so he couldn't sit and cheer on the Vandals. He did very well containing himself to not cheering for the Vandals and cheered for the Spartans. The Vandals ended up winning the close game at the end...29-25. It was a great game...nail biter at times. After the game, we waited for Coach Akey to come out so he could sign Henry's little Vandal outfit but it was just taking too long and Henry was hungry. So we went back home, started the firepit up...Uncle Mike, Aunt Kim and Rachel came over to hang out. It was a great time!
Grandpa Pat and Char stayed til Monday so we got to hang out a little longer. We played Yatzee and Marbles...it was fun. Henry was a little cranky because he didn't sleep much all day Sunday...too busy hanging out with family. He slept well Sunday night. He said his goodbyes to Grandpa Pat and Char then went to the doctor. It was so good for Grandpa Pat and Char to come down and meet Henry. He is so small and it will probably be March before he gets to see him again!...besides in pictures.
