Happy Birthday, Harper!

Harper arrived Wednesday morning, 2/3/10, at 8:27am. He weighed in at 8lbs 15oz, 20 1/2 inches. He's a healthy, beautiful boy. He's nursing like a champ, he's a great sleeper (for a newborn:) And he looks a lot like his big brother, Owen.

Owen loves the baby, even though he really wanted a girl baby and had picked the name, Grace (I'm sure after my cousin, Lisa's, daughter.) He told me the first morning that "I've changed my mind. I like the baby!" and it's true. He can't wait to be able to play with him, but has been surprisingly unconcerned that he just sleeps and eats right now.

Harper gave Owen a light saber so that might have helped things a bit.

Will write more later when I have time, but for some reason, lots of people keep asking for pictures! Enjoy those for now.
