Myranda Rose enters this world!

For all of our family and close friends, here's the latest on our daughter, Myranda Rose Henry!  She was born on February 4th, 2011 at 5:50 a.m.  She weighed in at 8lbs and 12oz.  She measured 23 inches.  Her head circumference was 12.5".  She was totally beautiful.

Straight to the bath!

                                         While Mommy was finishing up in Labor and Delivery, Daddy got to go to the                                  
                                         Nursery to help get Myranda ready!

                                             She was such a good baby!  

                                         This is the first time that Myrna Rose held Myranda Rose.

I had to buy my beautiful wife a dozen Hot Pink Roses for all the work she did delivering our Girl.

Gramma


They said 25% of healthy babies have a touch of jaundice...the only way to treat it is make them stay under a bili light...THIS WAS SO HEART BREAKING!  

She had to stay in this for 24 hours.

Uncle Tracy saved her from the lights for just a few minutes.


And of course Mommy had to feed her.

Ok...so after Gramma got there...she held her too.

So we cranked it up to Ultra-Ultra Tanning style...

WELCOME HOME MYRANDA ROSE!


Thanks Harvest Church!

  1. Congratulations!! I hope you guys are adjusting well. Anna Lee had jaundice too. I can relate with it being heartbreaking. I don't know if she is breast fed or not, but its also definitely more common with BF babies. We were told that we may have to give her some water in addition to breast milk to help flush the bilirubin out, but it cleared up after an extra night in the hospital because she had to stay under the light. BOO! Anyway, I'm glad you guys are home and enjoying parenthood. I'm sure you guys are head over heels for that precious little girl.
