My Newest Little Playtester

Hi all - big news in my household...

My wife and I just had our first child -- my son Max!

She insists he's named after Max from Where the Wild Things are -- though everyone here probably knows that he's *really* named after Max Planck, Max(well's) Equations, Max Born, and Local/Global Maximum.

Anyway, that's the quick explanation for where I've disappeared to these past two weeks. It's be an exciting and busy time over here in our household - and I couldn't be happier with my little boy.

I'll be slowly but surely going back through all the forum messages I've missed and responding in due course (as the little guy allows)... but just be aware that especially for the next month, I'll be pretty distacted/distractable.

Now that I've taken a good look at him, I can say that your new son is adorable! I hope he doesn't drive you and your wife too crazy.

It's all I can do to resist turning the TTG homepage into just a bunch of pictures of Max.

He's even cuter in that picture. And he's even wearing a Shocktopus T-shirt! That's just too cute.

Sorry I didn't see this until now but congratulations on your new son

A little update - since it's been FAR too long since I've posted photos of the little dude...

Oh...that face...just adorable. I'm a sucker for (happy) babies. They're adorable.
