Lydia Taylor gives birth to Baby Max

Austin Taylor November 22nd, 2008

Baby Max

Lydia gave us a very special surprise Wednesday by giving birth to our first child.  Our baby Max Robert Taylor was delivered at 10.58 pm on Wednesday November 19th.  He weighed 7 pounds 9 ounces and was 21 inches long.

I didn’t know the gender until the doctor held him up.  Lydia, I don’t know how you kept the answer to the boy-girl question secret so long, but you did it!

Lydia is home now and recovering well.  I was in the delivery room the whole time and I’ve never been prouder of my wife than that day.

Thank you Lydia!!  I love you so much and can’t possibly tell you how much joy you’ve brought into my life!

We would like to say a special thanks to Delivery Nurses Jane & Michelle at University Hospital who did a fantastic job keeping us calm, giving Lydia excellent care, and answering all our first-parent questions!

I’d also like to say, “Thank you” to our family, friends, and workplaces for the beautiful gifts, flowers, cards, and phone calls.  Max is such a joy to share with all of you!

    Congratulations and my best wishes on the birth of your son.

    I am a child,
    All the world waits for my coming
    All the earth watches with interest
    To see what I shall become.
    The future hangs in the balance,
    For what I am
    The world of tomorrow will be.

    I am a child,
    I have come into your world
    about which I know nothing.
    Why I came I know not.
    How I came I know not.
    I am curious
    I am interested.

    I am a child,
    You hold in your hand my destiny.
    You determine, largely,
    whether I shall succeed or fail.
    Give me, I pray you,
    Those things that make for happiness.
    Train me, I beg you,
    That I may be a blessing to the world.

    Hi Lydia and congratulations! Kinda late, but what the heck, eh! I do not do whole lot of blogroll exchanges, but you are one of few I have done so with. I clicked on the link I have for you and found this wonderful surprise! We have 5 and miss having babies around. Given our oldest is 19, and youngest 2, perhaps we’ll have grandbabies (hopefully not right away!) in the somewhat near future. Again, congrats.

    A belated congratulations. It explains why you haven’t been blogging. Congratulations to the beautiful addition to your family.

    Alright Lydia!

    I hope you’re able to get some sleep with the little one around.

    Aloha, Mike

    We miss seeing you around the office. But as you know, I completely understand. He is so cute. I know you and Austin are proud. Remember, if you guys need anything your Keller Williams family is always here. Take care. Shea
