  • Carrie says:

    I’ve been holding off on phoning you since I didn’t want to interrupt your precious first few days (especially with the time difference, I can only call in the early morning!) but Mom told me about these photos and I went in search of them here. They are amazing and I am so happy to see a few more gorgeous shots of Max. I can’t wait to meet my new nephew and see you guys! I love you so much.

  • Oh Chenin!! Max is absolutely magnificent! I met you in New Orleans and took your awesome branding class when Max was still a belly bump. He is just so gorgeous and incredible. I love love love the photos you posted and the ones on Carrie’s blog. Thanks for sharing your lovely family photos with your fans and my heartfelt congratulations to you and Doug…this little baby could not have blessed two cooler and sweeter people! All the best…
