An early view of Max



I became pregnant in May, realizing it only two weeks after we got our puppy, Baron. Well, what's another baby? We are all eagerly anticipating the arrival of Max, whom you see pictured here, in a 4D photograph the technician took of him. He is very snugly contained within my belly--his appearance is a bit compressed, but we're certain that he will stretch out once he makes his appearance. His due date is Valentine's Day, but Frederick is hoping for the 19th, as that was the birthday of the great man for whom he is named, my Father, Max Gray Rogers. I know you always said to not name a child for you, Dad, but I hope you forgive me this once....
