    My wife brought into this world our son, Alexander @ 2336 May 25, 2009. Weighed in at 6lb 16oz, 22.5" long.

    Haven't decided on the middle name yet, but I'm thinking James.

    CONGRATULATION!! Great to hear all are well. That is one TALL thin drink of water! Both of mine were right at 21" and weighed in at right about 10 lbs.
    Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

    When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.

        Yes, this is our first, but the second attempt. So far everything seemed well when I left the hospital at 0130ish. I'm heading back fairly soon.

            My son's name is Donnovan. He'll be 11 in July.

            Congrats, Johnson! Here's to a lifetime of pride and joy! Take lots of pictures, and write a journal. You'd be suprised how special that will be once your kid is grown.
