It was definitely a long drove home. I have never driven the streets of Tampa as slow as I did today bringing him home. He was born at St. Josephs Women's hospital on MLK.

Congrats man. I sold my 26K mile 03 Cobra for a V due to my soon to be 7 month old son. I remember that ride home from the hopsital. I was even yielding through green lights pumping the brakes.

Congrats! I laugh at all the comments...only because I know exactly how it is. i may have a 4 door car but can only take two friends cruising with me. Behind the front passenger seat is a base for the car carrier for my 2 month old daughter. Behind the driver seat is a booster car seat for my 3.5 year old daughter.

I used to drive like a bat out of hell. Had kids and slowed way down, still have the occasional fun but definetly not what it used to. Now you think you really have slowed down....if you have never had a motorcycle get one and then see how your car driving habits change.....

Awww, that's awesome! Congrats man... ithe day my son was born I went to taco delight to get some food real fast while we were waiting.. pulling out of the parking lot after getting the food and I got the call that he was coming! This same type of mod you got 2 days ago gave me an extra 1000,000,000 hp! I got back to the hospital in about a minute! I was about 3 or 4 miles away! Haha he is 7 months old now...
