Henry's due date was Tuesday April 9, but I guess he just really liked being in my tummy because he waited an entire week after that to come out. In that time, My sisters came and went all the way from Rexburg. I wish they could have been here for his birth but I am glad that we were able to do things and have fun while they were here.
I started having regular contractions at about 11:30 am on Tuesday, April 16, and Henry was born at 9:32 that night. He was very courteous to everyone's schedule as my parents had a class they needed to be at all day the next day and he waited to come out just minutes after the arrival of his Grandma Klenk. Maybe he was trying to make up for not coming when my sisters were here.
Anyway, I am so happy to finally be able to hold this precious baby. I love him so much already!

| Kenzie wanted to be like her Uncle Zach and hold a baby too |
 |
| My mom took Kenzie on a walk in the hot sun. When they came in, my mom sat on the couch, put her feet up and her hands behind her head to cool off. Kenzie got up on the couch next to her and put her hands behind her head head too. It was so adorable! |
