Congrats. Two of the best days of my life so far,,,, was holding my newborn daughters. Its a scary feeling at 1st



Both my girls were born premature. 1st one was 5 weeks early, 2nd one was 12 weeks early,,,she could have worn my wedding ring as a bracelet she was so tiny. But knock on wood both have been healthy since day one.

Both born in April ( just 3 years apart ) my oldest just turned 20 the youngest turned 17 . I can honestly say I dont know or care what my life would have been like without them in it.

Don't actually have one yet.  Might get one of the new ones, since I need a family car now.  Classic Mopar dreams have been put on hold for a while, though.

Hopefully yours will not be like mine.
My son isn't interested in cars at all :(

There goes the idea of Father/Son project

alfaitalia

I'm lucky there....sort of...just wish he would pick up school stuff as fast as he picks up car stuff. He's only seven but his car knowledge is pretty remarkable. 
Knew he was keen when he asked "When you die daddy will i get your Charger?"....nice! I'm only fifty.

Kayden arrived at 7:51 pm.  8 lbs even. He's currently in the nicu because he's breathing a little fast, but other than that seems fine.

Congrats, that's great! I hope there were no complications, other than him breathing a little fast.

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

TheGhost

No, no other complications.  Everything seems good so far.  Had to spend 3 hours in the nicu last night, but he is breathing normally now.

As you get older....no sane parent ever says they had wished they spent less time with the kids.

Best advise I ever got. Enjoy every moment you can. :yesnod:

Thanks everyone.  We finally got home today, after 4 days in the hospital.  32 hours of labor, I have no idea how my wife did it.  Here's a picture of the little guy.

EDIT: picture is too big.  I'll have to edit it down and repost it in the morning.

Don't give all the credit to your wife....I think you forget all the time (2 minutes 27 seconds she Mrs Ghost told me :D) and effort you put into creating that baby boy!! :smilielol:
