Evan Ralph McNeil was born at 7:09 this morning, a mere 4 weeks early. The baby weighed in at a booming 5 lbs 7 oz and was an impressive 17.5 inches long. We will make a formal post when we have finalized the name of the baby, but we wanted to put some pictures up for everyone to see. Patrice was amazing and progressed very quickly through labor. Needless to say, we did not think we would be taking home a baby when we went into the hospital this morning. Thus, many of these pics are with my cell phone camera.

The best reason ever for an update! He looks totally beautiful and perfect. We are so happy that everything has turned out well and that baby McNeil is here without incident! But come on, a baby that cute deserves a name! You've had 9 months to think of one.
Oh, that boy is beautiful and you both look great. He is sooo tiny and cute. Be careful not to smash him. Take care.
What... I get on to see if you have a new belly picture and see a baby!!! A cute baby at that!! How exciting, I will definatly be checking in for the announcment of the name and more pictures. Congrats!!!
Oh I love him so much!!!! He is so adorable and cute. I cannot wait to come see him and get some revenge pinching those cheeks!
Wow. I was just going to stop at your parent's house and drop of the baby gift for you thinking you guys were up here. He is so cute. Can't wait to see more pictures. I will still take the gift tomorrow and hopefully someone can bring it down.

Baby Baby Baby... I must admit: The early arrival of your son may have been the product of my prayers... I should probably stop doing that. But I get to see him!!! Yay! Baby Baby Baby. Congratulations. Patrice- you look amazing. Allen- my good brother, you had better get some sleep! Love ya!
I am so excited, but so mad that I have to wait a full 2 weeks to see that boy! I was so worried all morning as I was getting ready to leave the morning you had [enter name here] and was carrying around my phone so much that I forgot to pack it...then I was going crazy not knowing what was happening!
I'm so proud of you two, and so happy that although he's a month early, he's just perfect and so cute. Congratulations! I cannot wait to see him...can I stop by on my way to AZ on the 7th?
I know you planned it to have him 2 days after I left. He is so round and cute! Those cheeks look very soft and squishable. A whole month early! You are so lucky you missed out on the last month it is miserable. Although it is a good month to mentally prepare... Congratulations!
Congratulations guys!!! He is so cute! Allen, I called the hotel in Paris and left a message for your parents. I will be showing them the pictures I have on my computer as soon as I see them on Tuesday. Hope things are going well for you two! We love you and cant wait to see you guys. Congratulations!

Oh my! I bet your Mom is DYING that she isn't here! What a surprise! I am so glad everything went so well. He is such a cute little peanut. Congratulations.
Oh my goodness! I was just checking your blog for an update and found a great surprise!!! Congrats you two! He is beautiful! I am glad that everyting went so well. So did Patrice go into labor or was she induced? Congrats again, we are so happy for you guys and can't wait to meet him!
Oh my gosh!! What a happy surprise!! He is so handsome! Congratulations you two!! We can't wait to see him! (I am not done with his gift yet!!!)
We have been dying since we arrived back at our hotel last night and the desk clerk gave us a note that said, "You have a grandson." Nowa We were cazy trying to call someone and finally got Tim when he got home from church. We wish we could see our little man, but I guess our girl will take care and help until Sue arrives and we get back. He is absolutely beautiful and we love him no matter what his name turns out to be. Take care and make sure you follow my advice, Allen! Good work, Patrice!
Grandpa here;
We have been all over the country in the past two days and have seen many beautiful things, none so beautiful as our new grandson. Thank you both for being such good kids and for being willing to give of yourselves to bring a new life into this world. We love you.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! We are so happy for ya.
Congratulations you guys! I am happy for Patrice that she delivered a baby half the size of Ethan...makes for a much better recovery! He is adorable and maybe one day we will get to meet him...that is if we ever get together. What is our problem?!? So is his not really Evan? We really like Ralph. Good luck you guys.

Congratulations!! Glad that both Mom and baby are doing good!
Congratulations and all the best for the three of you! We are excited for the happy new parents! If you need anything let me know. And, I'll have to put a gift together for my new nephew. You should still have my number (702-497-9006).
We're so happy for you both. 5 lbs 7 oz: So non-McNeilesque, but the newest Aggie looks great and healthy, as do both of you.
Everything changes now, and for the better. All our love.
I’m so happy for both of you! He’s amazing! There is nothing better then a new born baby! Enjoy every minute of it. I’m so excited to see more pictures, don’t forget to post in all the new parent hustle and bustle.
Oh my gosh, what a wonderful surprise! I'm so jealous! Will you share your secret to aid me in getting mine here? He's so perfect and cute, congratulations you two! I can't wait to see more pictures.
Love, Nicole
Allen and Patrice; How much your lives will change!! For the better!! Beautiful Baby and Mother and the cutest Dad!
Congrats;
Dixie & Eric
Hooray! He is so cute. Congratulations! And I love the name...you aren't trying to find a different one, are you??
Congratulations! I looked at Giselle's blog and decided to stop by and find out when the due date was and was totally surprised to find he's here! Well congrats! He looks so perfect! I'm curious about if you know why he was so early?
Also, I don't know if I ever told you Allen that I relayed that comment about the wrestling story to Wes and he got a big kick out of it! He laughed then said, "I was a bit of a smart-aleck wasn't I?"
Congratulations! I'm so happy your son is here safe and sound. He's beautiful! He is very lucky to come into a very loving family.
He's very special!
Love ya, Grandma Shauna
congrats you guys! he was worth the wait and the heart aches. another mcneil boy- look out patrice!
