Introducing….
Henry Wayne Stanley
Born December 5th, 2007 6:03 pm
6 lbs, 6 oz.
19 inches long
Henry came home from the hospital yesterday. Jared and I are elated to be his parents.Last Wednesday we went for a checkup and his heartbeat was 4x faster than it should be; minutes later I was in a hospital gown awaiting emergency c-section. The doctors were able to calm his heart once they got him out. The doctors call it atrial flutter, but we just think he wanted to be here for christmas.
He gave us quite a scare, but he’s in good health and doing great.
We couldn’t be happier and Jared is the best dad ever. Thanks to our family and friends for your kind thoughts and prayers.
Welcome Baby Hank!

hooray for henry! he’s already a rake. I’m glad there’s another ricks-stanley in the world.
congratulations to you! He’s beautiful. And just take it easy with the c-section – they aren’t too bad, but it’s a good reminder to take it easy these first couple of weeks, let others doing the heavy lifting! (Except for Hank of course – lift away!)

Yay for Henry! So cute! So glad he has a name so I can tell baby Zach all about him without calling him no name! I can’t WAIT to meet him. Keep the pics coming momma! And call me!
Glad your home safe and sound now. He is adorable!
he’ll be tough as nails- a mix between the home run king hank aaron and the duke john wayne.
