So I don't have social media accounts but want to humble brag on my wife for a minute. We just had our third son on Saturday morning. Out first two sons came rather uneventfully but both involved epidurals, pitocin drops, etc. This time she wanted to have a "natural birth" without any meds, interventions, etc. This obviously scared the **************** out of me but she had her heart set on it...AND SHE DID IT! I've never seen anyone be so strong before, truly amazing!

Hey thanks starter! Here's the little guy, first time in the driver's seat. I had to teach him that the key goes on the left lol.

Oh... he knows where the keys go. He's looking right at them.

Again, congratulations. That's a good looking baby.

@ Ike, congrats to you both and your wife, yeah, that’s pretty badass.

And if that kid’s anything like all the kids in our family, the keys are always their favorite toy, and they go straight in the mouth.

Just finished replacing the tub boot on our lg front load washing machine. I'm glad to report that Porsche isn't the only company that can design something that seems so simple but is such a pain in the ass to fix.
