Meet Max Alexander. He was born on August 17th at 11:01 pm. He was 8 lbs and was 21 in long. I may be slightly prejudiced, but I think he is the most gorgeous thing I have ever seen. We got home a few hours ago and have had 2 feedings at home already. I managed to sneak in a nap after the first feeding. I sure needed it. He is asleep after the second feeding cradled in nana’s arms at the moment. He is slightly jaundice and I need to take him back for a blood draw tomorrow. And, we are still waiting for his right testicle to drop. Other than that he is doing great. I’m doing really well also. A bit tender in the nether region and occasional nipple soreness, but nothing painful…just uncomfortable. Birth story to come soon.
Max Alexander - Day 1
Yes, yes, I KNOW I said I was going to name him Zachary Edward, but when I saw him…I thought…he isn’t a Zack, he’s a Max. It’s official now. Some may think I am crazy and maybe I am, Max just seems to suit a bit better.

Beautiful!! :) He is just precious, and I am so glad you are both home safe and sound! Thanks for posting, I have been checking on you constantly all day! LOL:)
Congratulations! He is adorable, and I love the name Max. (I did the same thing with Noah - his name was to be David right up until my first sight of him and I immediately changed my mind.). I'm going to have to go back and read your archives - I thought you were having a girl! Congrats again Debbie! ~CarolynG
