Happy Birthday Henry!
Good news to report! After roughly 9 or so hours of labor (some hours tougher than others), my older sister, Claire, gave birth to a baby boy, Henry Luke, at 4am on March 17th, weighing in at 7 pounds, 6 ounces. As the family runs thick with Irish blood, I am sure there are many members who are excited he was born on St.Patrick's Day.
Way back when in July when Claire and her husband Chris told me they were expecting, the name Henry was soon a frontrunner. It was definitely the name I was pulling for. But I thought for sure over the 8 months that minds would change and other names would come up. I never brought names up, hoping Henry wouldn't get overused in the meantime. Luckily it appears it never did! So I must say I'm very happy with his name. His middlename, Luke, comes from our Grandfather, who at 90 years old is still doing well and I know he can't wait for the moment he has Henry on one lap and Grace on the other. I will get a pic up of Henry as soon as one of my sisters or parents gets around to emailing it to me.
-Cheers!
