The brothers meet...

Gavin finally came to meet Henry at the hospital. At first he was pretty scared of both the baby and Mom, but eventually he warmed up a little more, to atleast get closer to "Mom's Henry." By the end of our stay he was pretty worried about any nurse or doctor that came in to see Henry and what they would be doing to him. Though he wouldn't touch him no matter what.
Here he is trying to feed Henry his chocolate egg... that is a good sign since Gavin won't usually give up a chance at chocolate.
We were all pretty glad to come home on Wednesday. The hospital staff was great, but the food was terrible and there just wasn't a lot of room for Gavin and Dad to hang out without Gavin being tempted to push the nurse call button about a million times. Here they are pretending to sleep on the extra bed, even though one grouchy nurse had said that we shouldn't touch it... oh well. Gavin kept begging Dad to lay down on his belly and then would instruct him to snore.
As you can see... Henry was excited to come home too... His first ride in the car seat, and I don't think he opened his eyes once.
Since we have gotten home, you can see that Gavin has warmed up to the idea of his "baby bruder" a lot more. He likes to go and check on him and ask "Henry, you wake?" And he likes to hold him as you can see and even gave him a nice little kiss. So we are progressing.
As you can tell, we are all still resting quite a bit, and everyone is pretty tired, but we are having fun.
