One year ago today

We were sitting in Magee Women's hospital, very excited, very humbled, and very tired. We checked in at roughly 7 p.m. the previous night and Val did an amazing job through a trying labor that lasted until 9:34 a.m. Of course we were excited to finally have Henry here, but it was quite intimidating to hold your first child not really knowing what to do with him. He was very sleepy that first day and mostly slept after he ate and was swaddled. I think we'll elaborate more on that day later, but we marked today by opening a couple presents and thinking about how far we've come in one year. He's a pretty amazing little boy and I'm sure we'll be astounded at how far we've come by this time next year. Happy Birthday, Henry Leo.
