Dell,

Congratulations to you and your wife. My friends with kids say they're the best thing that ever happened to them. My parents say the same.

Porsche and Recaro make great baby seats.

Thanks Rad! We are already on the car seats. Can't wait to get him into some mini-GT3 seats

Again, congrats and take care of your little family!

Ciao,

Wouldn't it be great if we could slow down time? That is my only neurotic anxiety I have.....missing something b/c I was to preoccupied with my something else.

I guess he is just going to have to be raised at the track

Now, Dell off to the toyshop!

Ciao,

He already had quite the collection waiting for him. I just got him a GT3RSR 1:18 and a whole bunch more in the past several months. Damn, this is going to be one spoiled kid. In a good way of course

Thanks Austin! As you can see, Parker ended up being the winning name. Truth be told, Austin was such a close second it took us the full 2 days in the hospital before we gave the birth certificate lady the name. We waffled between Parker and Austin like you wouldn't believe. 50.1% Parker 49.9% Austin.

We actually considered that but having 3 names and then the last name just didn't sound right. Besides, there is only room on the birth certificate for 1 first and 1 middle so I am sure it would have to be some hyphenated thing.

Just yesterday I held my own little baby boy in my arms...he's now 25, with sisters 23 and 20. There's nothing like it. God's gift.

Congrats Dell,

When my daughter was born 3 years ago, it was the great day of my life as well. Enjoy it, they grow up fast.

Your wife's lucky only 9 hours labor. My wife was two weeks overdue (pregnant almost 10 months), labor took 18 hours and they had to do a last mintue c-section because my daughter was now 10 lbs (gained 2 lbs during the last two weeks of the pregnancy) and was too big to be deliver the normal way. But everything went perfect.

Congrats again on the new baby, just one question, what type of porsche will you buy him when he get his drivers license?

My daughter is already asking for mine
