My mom's due date for my little brother was the 15th of January also! And like your son, he came early. She had a scheduled c-section planned for January 5th, but she was a little sad that he wouldn't get to pick his own birthday. That is, until she went into labor the morning of the 5th, just an hour before she was supposed to be at the hospital, so he did get to choose after al!
Alexander is one of my favorite names...Bill, on the other hand, hates it...which is why I have a William Gerald instead of an Alexander William! ;)
