Henry-9 weeks old!



Time is just flying by with Henry! He's visited his great grandmother, his Raether grandparents, and has visited Aunt Pennie in LaCrosse. He's growing fast! Here are a few pictures of him, there are more on his shutterfly site, theraetherfamily.shutterfly.com

Have a great summer!

Henry Louis has arrived and what a wonderful gift he is! He arrived 4/23 at 4:56 pm after us being at the hospital for 34.5 hours. It didn't go exactly as planned, but the prize at the end was great and made it all worth it! Here are some pictures of Henry and there are more on our shutterfly site, http://theraetherfamily.shutterfly.com. Enjoy!

We've been working hard on getting BR (Baby Raether)'s room ready. So far everything is set, Mike is moving along quickly with finishing the basement and doing some babyproofing, and Lynette is busy getting everything else cleaned, set up, and packed. Friends and family have been very helpful with the basement as well since Lynette can't paint right now.
Just when we think we are ready we think of "just one more" thing we need to do!
The dogs are ready and Calvin has investigated the bassinet. Dandy keeps checking the stroller and crib to see if there's a baby in there yet, and he LOVES the mobile! Gladys just doesn't really care about the room so long as everyone is happy.
