A little early... baby Max

We weren't expecting our first baby, Max, until around Jan 12th, but after a little accident  (fall) early on the morning of New Year's day, we went to the hospital to make sure all was ok, and ended up getting to see Max a little early. All was ok, and mom and Max were fine, but it was almost like "well we are close enough, so no point to wait." 

Maxwell James Forlines was born at 8:34pm on January 2nd.  He is 7 lbs. 15 oz, and doing great.
No time to smoke a My Father yet, but that is ok!

    Thanks everyone.  @peter4jc Yes I do think he could handle a corona or lancero. Heres to hoping Max and I can enjoy a cigar together. 

    All I can say is thank God that my wife has worked with babies before as a nanny, and in daycare and preschool and knows how to handle this guy. Otherwise I'd be a mess.

    Congrats on becoming a first time Dad!!!  Life changing moment for sure.

    And yeah, they don't come with instruction manuals or any on/off switch. LOL. In about a year, you'll find yourself saying sentences you would never have imagined. 

    "Don't lick the floor"

    "Don't touch the dogs butt"

    etc.  :D
