Jonathan Edward Hinkle

Announcing Jonathan Edward Hinkle, born June 21st at 7:13pm.  He was 7lbs 2 oz and 20 inches long. Jonathan was born in the middle of a tornado warning where we were wheeled into the hallway just after delivery.  We had to stay there for about an hour before we were able to go to a room.  I felt pretty lucky as there were some women laboring in the hallway.  So Jonathan is about 3 weeks old now.  And, yes, that is how long it has taken me to feel like my free time does not need to be spent napping.  Although I could probably easily fall asleep right now.  Jonny is proving to be a much easier baby than Isaiah was.  At 3 weeks he is taking pretty regular naps, he is a great eater, and he wakes up 3 times at night to eat. 

Isaiah is a very compassionate big brother.  When he came to visit in the hospital he wanted to give Jonny kisses.  He also got very upset and began crying when Jonny cried saying, "What's wrong with Jonny Mama, hold him mama, hold him."  Isaiah has now adjusted to all the crying, but he gets concerned for Jonny when he is crying.  The only problem, if any, is Isaiah's desire for Jonny to be awake with him all the time.  There are time he is intentionally load so that Jonny will wake up and "play"
