    This Mini-Cooper, to be specific :)

    [IMG]

    Our beautiful daughter, Stella Carole Cooper, was born September 27th at 2:16pm and weighs 5lb 6oz. Both mom (Nichole) and baby are doing great. We've been home since Wednesday and have been adjusting to life without an army of nurses and room service. Mostly room service.

    Sorry about taking so long to post this up, things have been a little bit different around our house lately :)

    Nothing else in your life will take as much energy, time, and skill. Or be as fulfilling and rewarding. :)

    Congrats again Danny. Life will never be the same now, but as I've said before, in a very special way.

    Congrats! Beautiful daughter you have there! She'll have you completely wrapped around her finger in no time, if she hasn't already!

    Danny CONGRATULATIONS
    How about posting a photo of Nichole holding Stella in your PRIUS. That would make it complete.

    Now that you've got "time to spare", please read Post #2953 and 2954. You and the Moderators can think about it.

    Now go back and change the diapers.:)

    Cheers

    Don't forget to read the Owner's Manual... :confused:
    Oops, you write your own!

    Did you get an Extended Warranty for your "baby?" :rolleyes:

    The FE for the first year is pretty bad...
    Mostly $$ is just turned into exhaust.
    But it gets better after the break-in period :p

    Congratulations!. God bless the three of you.
    May you all enjoy health, happiness, and prosperity.

    I WAS going to say something about avoiding the current BMW MINI because of their rock-hard ride quality and quirky instrument panel, but I take that all back. ;)

    Congratulations on the new baby! [IMG]
