Henry's Baby

We decided it was probably a good idea to get Henry his own baby to not only help him practice being nice to baby but also so he has his own that he can play with when Holden is here.

Ryan & I originally wanted to get him a little boy Cabbage Patch doll but apparently they are super hard to find in the stores so we headed to Toys R Us and found a "boy" doll that is actually called "Baby Brother". It's not the cutest thing and I don't think his undershirt is very boyish but it will do.


Henry was pretty excited when we gave it to him...





He loves giving Baby Hernando hugs...


& helping him with his binky...




One thing he doesn't like to do with his new baby is share his new car with him. Henry was playing in it and we put the baby in there with him...he quickly threw it out the side window. We will have to work on that ;)

What a cutie! And what a good idea with the doll. =) Glad your husband went along with it... I'm not sure mine would!

ADORABLE!!! I think Henry is going to be a WONDERFUL big brother!!! We all know that you are not going to shun Henry once Holden is here, so don't listen to that nonsense "Haley Olivia McinBLAH" or whatever has to say!

Love you girlie!!!

I love it! We bought Carsyn a baby boy doll for his first birthday because we knew we were TTC... needless to say all he did was chew the fingers off, lol. Sounds like you are having greater success then us!
