Did you think to feel the radiators while you were stuck on the side of the road waiting for it to cool down? If they were cool then that's a good sign as you want to find the system isn't cooling - rather than the engine is making more heat that the system can handle.

I like your plan to replace the thermostat and CPS. It will be interesting to see if you find anything jammed in the thermostat. Were all pieces of the gasket accounted for? It's tight in there and easy to do...

p.s. my daughter (Tilly) is 10 months old, I can't imagine how proud you must be to have your girl spending time at home with you in the garage. Whatever else you have or haven't done with your life, at least you know for sure that you got that fatherhood thing RIGHT!!! Good job.
