Welcome to the family!

We would like to welcome the newest member of the extended Hested family...

Henry Joseph Werth
He was born on October 10, 2009 at 6:30 a.m. and was 7 lbs, 8 oz and 20 inches long. My youngest sister, Jalene, and brother-in-law, Joe, have been doing great. Henry is now sleeping in his own room, loves to bob his head around looking for food, and has managed to get his daddy wet during diaper changes. All good things for a one and a half week old. My mom has spent quite a bit of time at Dude's house as a doting grandma. I think she loves being so close to a little grandbaby. What fun!

Thanks for the post dedicated to our sweet little boy!

Watch out, Henry is going to be a tough kid on the playground since he already has impressive neck muscles as he lifts his head up on his own at less then a week old, WOW! Grandma Hested is quite impressed! Love, Dude

Oh my gosh - Henry is a cutie!!! Can you believe Dude is a mom? How fantastic is that? Congratulations to everyone. That is so exciting.

Thanks, Julie, for the news about a new member of the family. We hadn't heard. Congratulations Jalene and Joe on a handsome young son. Glad to hear all are doing well.
