Introducing Chase Edward, born at 4:34 pm on 3/4

05. Mar, 2007 Categories: Personal by 11 Comments



My wife Jamie and I had our first child on Sunday. His name is Chase Edward and after spending the first 5 minutes with him, I knew we would love this baby more than anything!

My wife is healing and doing great. We can’t wait to take him home in a couple of days. And starting later this week, our families will be traveling out from the East coast to meet Chase. We’re in for some exciting times.

Jamie and I have to rest now, but we’ll be posting many new photos of Chase during our hospital stay. My wife will also be posting photos at Chase’s BabySite.

Thanks for sharing this special day with us through this blog entry and to those in our closest circles, we can’t wait for you to meet little Chase Edward.

    Congratulations guys, I am glad to hear that everything went smoothly. He is a handsome little guy and very lucky to have two very excited and loving parents such as yourselves. I will have to break it to Ben that Chase can’t go in the treehouse just yet. Get some rest and I can’t wait to meet the newest Flash Developer in the Bay area. He will always be known as the baby born on the eve of 360Flex, Ok, probably not. Congratulations guys! And then there were 3.

    Congrats man!!! I know you’ll make a great dad. But “Chase Edward”??? I thought for sure it was going to be Apollo Flash Freedman. ;) Well, at least you didn’t name him after a Red Sox player.

    LOVE,

    Thanks for inviting me to see Chase today. He’s a beautiful baby. Does this make me an honorary uncle?

    Is it selfish to want to babysit so I can show Chase off to pick up women?

    It’s a win, win! ;)

    I am looking forward to seeing you, Jamie and Chase Edward again soon. Congratulations!!!

    Kisses from us all…

    Yeah, I was expecting Flex Freedman or something similar.

    Congratulations man, crazy times ahead for you.

    Get a picture of him with the book! :)

    Hi Charles & Jamie … congratulations on this magnificent event.

    Also, Charles, I love your Yahoo! Maps Mashups book. I do have a technical question and I was wondering if I could hire you as a consultant to help us get beyond a hurdle where the top-right controls work but don’t show visibly in the Microsoft Internet Explorer, though they show up fine in Firefox. Please let me know. Thank you … andre@pqsw.com
