    Going to be a daddy!

    My wife and I will be having our first!!

    Just wanted to share, all pointers from experienced daddies welcome.

    Oh, and I'll have to sell the 5.0 e30 for something more kid friendly, trade for sedan?












    Just kidding.... About the car, were really having a baby. I'll just have to get a recaro child seat for the center back.

      Definitely lots of photos, the process has already started! Plus we just moved into our own place again. Had to go home for a couple years and pay off some debt. Now were back out, stress free and ready to start our family.

          prepare to not sleep for a month or two.

          But it's worth it.

                          Congrats man, it's definitely the best experience ever! Mine is just over 3 months now and I love every day of it!

                          We DD the E30 and have taken Stirling everywhere in it, he falls right asleep to the pur of the M42.

                          I was lucky my son came a few weeks before the spring school semester started because it's extremely involving at first. I thought I would be ready for the birth and the baby, but there is no way to fully prepare for it. Watching my girl give birth blew my fucking mind, and after that it's non-stop, literally.

                          My girl and I split the duties for the first month until I started school (non-stop work from 6am to 12am every day), then she took over the nightly duties so I could get a little sleep (yeah, never think sleeping with a crying baby is easy).

                          Now he's been on a pretty good sleep schedule for a while, he's so much more interactive and he's growing and learning so incredibly fast. One of the best parts is that he smiles every time he sees me, almost without fail.

                          Cheers!

                            Congratulations, my wife and I are expecting our second boy so I'm stoked about having a couple of little wrenchers to help out in the shop.

                            We bought the Recaro Sport Carseat for our first son and I like it a lot. We picked it up for around $220 in a store in Dallas.

                            My advice is just to love your family, love your wife above everything else. They matter more than anything else in this life.
