« on: June 22, 2012, 09:18:06 pm »
well guys had my first born last sat, no time to come on here at mo, wow what an experience! Knackered!

Henry Francis likes the tough ride of the B12 though  :evilgrin:

So my latest mods are the Britax First Class and sunblinds on the rear windows, kerb weight is up but the extra weight in the back evens it up a bit more lol
Diamond Black Pearl Edition 30, still going strong but now back to Stg 1

It's the strangest thing with Children, i work away 2 or 3 days a week, and every time i come home without fail i can see a difference in my son.  Blink and you miss it.  :wink:

Congrats mate.

19 months and three days since since our first born arrived.

After years of not thinking of myself as 'family man material' it's mega she's here.
And of course my little girl is in my opinion just the coolest person I know.

Mods wise: She bounces along on B12's too.
Plus it's a good reason to get your windows tinted, as that's what I've had done. Honestly not for the looks at all, but for the UV's.

^^^^
Thanx, guys  :drinking:

Here's another one and doubtless what all dads get to do with their young ones!:



^ Note the wall art by my daughter Sky.

It's almost impossible to put into words what it feels like to be a dad. It's not necessarily the bestest thing that can happen to you in the world - It's just very very special in the extreme and you become a different person and have a different approach to life.

Those pics are great RR :happy2: in terms of cars when you have kids, I never get why some people have a kid and suddenly go buy a Renault espace :signLOL: the best mod you do when you have kids is maccy d chips that get stuck under car seats, drawings on your windows from the ride to school in a morning and lovely footprints everywhere other than carpet mats :signLOL: actually I'm going to go buy a Renault espace.
BMW 335d msport touring lci. Auto, estate and diesel! Oh no
