I will remember all of the details of those two occasions. Simply incredible! especially at the end when they are finally here and you get to hold them for the first time. That's when you realize what lifes all about. Then it scares the hell out of you. That also when all of your priorties change. But you will find that out soon enough. That dream of owning a Mustang Cobra convertible gets replaced by owning a Dodge minivan. Yeap life as you know it is about to change.

Yes, I remember when my son was born, peed on the doctor not 30 seconds out of the womb

. Definitely a boy. Good aim too

My daughter's birth was much tamer, but I remember that one just as vividly.
And the car . . . I sold the first new car I had ever bought -- 93 Dodge Shadow, stick shift, 3.0L engine, all of the bells and whistles I had wanted. I bought a mini-van. Oh well. Carseat wouldn't fit in the Shadow.
BTW: Bilqis food in Freeport is just as bland -- ho-hum. I keep hoping to find decent Buffalo Wings

. Probably never will since the natives consider Taco Bell to be spicy. LOL. We do, however, have a decent assortment of greasy spoons -- sorry to rub it in onthepequod.
