Default A future Porsche driver is born :)

Our first child, Liesl Suzanna Walter, was born at 3:54 pm, January 26. After a few minor warranty issues were taken care of, we were able to bring her home today. She weighed 9 lbs, 9 oz. and was 21" long.

Apart from my utter lack of clarity regarding infant care, we are excited and look forward to our new adventure together.

Congratulations Andreas - a beautiful girl! I'm sure you'll find her care very rewarding (and a little tiring ).

Whoa!! 9 lbs, 9 oz. and 21"?

Volleyball or basketball, you pick, but I think you've got a full ride scholarship in your future.

That's great, Andreas... congrats and best wishes!

Congratulations Andreas...there is nothing better than being a Father. I too have a daughter ( junior at Purdue) and I can tell you first hand that daughters are very special and I know the bond will be a very strong one.

Andreas,
Congrats! Cars are fun, but kids are the best. I have two DD(darling daughters) myself. You will have a lifetime of enjoyment(with a couple of trying times mixed in) with them.

What? You had a kid and you didn't tell me??

I'm very happy for you and Rachel. Remember, I can be of service if you need help around the house, exercising the Porsche...

Mark,
I saw you less than a week ago. Unless your condition has changed a thousand fold, you have no business manipulating the pedal cluster of a 993

Thanks for all the well wishes!

Congratulation Andreas!

Girls are the best! My 4 year old daughter loves to ride in the Cab as long as her hair doesn't get too "messed-up" LOL. The 10 month old one is a different story!

Enjoy the ride and forget about sleep!

Andres -

Now I know why we never got that oil change done...your wife was due at any time!!

My 4 year old "baby girl" loves babies so we will definitely have to bring your car out for the oil change and let her meet your new family member.

Congratulations to you both!!

Morgan,
Thanks - the P-car has received far less attention over the last few weeks than it deserves!

Congratulations Andreas! She's beautiful. Hope mom and baby are both doing well. Girls are very special. I've got two of them and there is no substitute. Enjoy these first few weeks. They go fast.
