Meet our baby Chad!

With great joy we welcomed our son, Chad Noah Henderson, into the world on May 5, 2009 at 4:11 am. He was 6 pounds and 13 ounces, and 20.5 inches long. I was blessed to have a healthy pregnancy and a relatively complication free (but certainly not pain free!) labor experience. As an answer to many prayers, Joe was able to be home for the baby's birth and about a week afterward.

After much deliberation we were able to settle on the name Chad. There weren't many boys names that I really liked, but Joe liked the name Chad. It is also the name of his uncle whom he never met, because he passed away at a young age. Chad Babcock (Joe's uncle) was known for having a close relationship with his father (Joe's grandfather), and Joe hopes that he, too, will have a close bond with our son. We chose Noah for the middle name to honor God- as Noah had great faith in his time, we hope our son will have faith in Christ as well.
