Jackson Benjamin Mahan was born Saturday, December 1, 2007.
Baby Jack weighed in at 6lbs 2oz., and 19 inches. According to Bambam, it was a smooth delivery, but since they live nearly 70 miles from the hospital you can imagine there was a little anxiety on the way.
The Stork beat Santa on delivering Blessings this year. The original due date was Christmas.

We got an early Christmas surprise today.

We're thankful for a very smooth birth and healthy mom and baby Jack.
Here are the obligatory stats: Jackson Benjamin Mahan - 6.2 lbs, 19"
