I have known for about a month that my wife was expecting again. We have not shared with anyone because we are both scared after last year. Well I just found out from the doctor its two and she is about 7 weeks along.

Congrats, Richard!!
I think this time will go fine. Yes, better get that wagon fixed up as you will soon end up with a full house!!
Just think, in this case, baby shower gifts can be car parts!

How's the new shop coming along? Weather has been pretty good at least.

Congrats Richard! I agree with the others and will be praying for a easy pregnancy for your wife. As easy as it could be having twins!

Now it will be easy to justify keeping the wagon

Congrats, Richard!

When I bought my 98, I had no idea that I would become a daddy 18 months later. I kinda wish I had known so I could have bought a Custom Cruiser. Turns out that it's a fantastic family car and a great excuse to keep on wrenching and buying parts!

Will all the crap you have to carry, the wagon will be indispensable.

Either way, my daughter Soffiya, is only 6 months old, but loves riding in Morty. That's the car with which I brought her and a very tired wife home.
