Thanks a lot! I just wanted to say that Samantha and I have been fortunate to stay at the Ronald McDonald House in Portland. Wow. All I can say is completely humbled I am at this service. We are about a five minute walk from Maine Medical Center and the NICU where Will is. It's funny how sometimes you have to rely on others when you are used to being in charge all the time. Next time you find yourself at a McDonald's please drop some change in those slots. The service they provide is honestly unquantifiable. The house is staffed 24/7 with volunteers and staff and there is laundry facilities, wifi, computers and printers and meals are made in the kitchen every night by volunteer chefs. All they ask for is a donation at the end of your stay.

Thanka a lot guys. He's doing quite a bit better and he is off of the uv lights that were strengthening his liver. He had an increase in blood sugar but they have increased his food intake. Last night after being held by my wife for two hours, ivs tubes and all, I got to change his diaper. He was looking everywhere and especially at me. Absolutely beautiful.

Welcome to the forums dude! Would love to see that house!

Well if it's any consolation "Not Carl " it's going to be me in the ICU next! My wife was the most impatient person I knew and now my son showing up over two months ahead of schedule?????? Good Lord!!!!!! Hospital bed here I come!!!

Thanks guys. Yes kruton all of you guys are honorary uncles So Will is 8 weeks early so we have quite the road ahead but he's got the best care givers in the East and Maine Medical NICU is really quite famous for being super good. I just got back from Target to change out of two days of clothes and finally get a shower. My little boy is in the incubator but Samantha got to hold him today and it was pretty unbelievable.

Thanks a lot guys. I appreciate the kind sentiments. So does my wife and my little boy, Chris

So Samantha and I had a surprise yesterday. I was finishing painting the nursery and Samantha was out raking. She came in and her water broke. Two high speed ambulance rides later we found ourselves at Maine Medical. Our hospital recognized that our lil one was coming in hot and heavy at 32 weeks. So they shipped us off to a NICU ASAP. Samantha gave birth to our son, William Lawrence (Will) at 415 am. Our son is in NICU, but they just removed a breathing tube and he is starting to push air with assistance. He's beautiful. A prayer wouldn't go unheard of but he's amazing. Samantha, true to nature, walked down to the NICU with me four hours later! This is our first....and the first Kelby grandson. My Mom is super stoked.

I've got server all and they are fantastic pliers. Super durable finish and the grips are great. Irwin commissioned NWS to make their high end pliers and they want a turd load more than the NWS for rebranded tools! Check out this site too... http://www.german-hand-tools.com/nws-products.html

Love me some NWS. Where'd you get them? I've a bunch of different pliers and they are great.
