Some of you may have heard that we were expecting a little boy.
Henry Charles was born on 15 OCT at 7:37 PM, after a short (but intense) labor. It was hard on Julie as well. He weighed 7 lbs 12 oz and was 21 inches long. So pretty much the same size as Lucy at birth. Poor kid even looks like Lucy! Henry is my grandfather’s name. Charles is my middle name, my dad’s middle name, and my great-grandfather’s name. So we definitely kept it in the family this time around.
Needless to say, his sisters were very excited and have been so cute in welcoming him home. Even Gwenyth has shown an interest.
Here are some pictures:
Everyone has been so wonderful. Thank you. My momma tolerated the girls for 48 hours and left us with a great meal. Thank you so much. We came home from the hospital on Friday (which was Julie’s birthday) to find that Tausha (well, Brian, I guess) had decorated our house with balloons and a big “It’s a boy!” sign.

Ooohhh…what a sweetheart…he is beautiful…sooo very handsome. I love all of the pictures….and all of the sweet little mommies…the look like they are just eating up these special moments with this new little Spirit. He looks very grown up already in the pics with his eyes open! Watch out, no doubt he will be a heart breaker…hey…maybe we can arrange something in the future with our new one on the way and Henry…set a date for 21 years from now?! 🙂 Congrats Elcocks! I was soo excoted to find this post tonight! 🙂 Love the name…just seems to fit him perfectly.
Congratulations! Henry is SO cute (no surprise there) and we can’t wait to meet him!! Hopefully sooner than later, but we wanted to let you guys get a little settled before we came barging in :). We love you guys.
He is so adorable…as I knew he would be!! What a sweet little angel! I have been thinking of you…hoping things were going well. Congrats!! *and thank you for the sweet card…I feel like I need to send you a thank you card for the thank you card!!*

He’s beautiful! Congratulations! I’m just so glad you all get to experience a boy.
What a beautiful little boy! I have been moved to tears to know that you are naming him Henry. His great-grandpa must be smiling down on all of us. You are so fortunate to have such a gorgeous family. Love all of you so much. Grandma Eslin
Congratulations!! He is so beautiful (but in a manly way, of course.) We can’t wait to see what a Julie and Brian Elcock boy will look like.

Congratulations on your little boy. You will love having a boy…I have so many Daddy’s girls that it was so nice to finally get a “mama’s boy”. Ethan is so sweet! How fun for you and Amy to have boys a day apart. Take care.

CONGRATS!!!! He’s so darling. What a cute name too! He looks healthy and that’s always a good thing. Thanks for adding pics, it’s awesome to see how great he’s doing and love the little Halloween outfit. Of course he’s got to be festive like the rest of his coordinated family. 😉 Can’t wait to meet him in person someday.
Julie, I just got your Christmas card and couldn’t resist the urge to write and tell you what a beatiful bunch of girls you have. And, of course, how happy I am that you have a son. Congrats!
