Another junior HAMBer joins the world.

Beautiful baby! Congratulations, they grow up really fsat.


Doc.

 

Oh yeah, kids don't stop for hangovers!!!!!!
Learning that the hard way, mind you I don't need an alarm clock for work anymore.

Boris I'll give you a tip, having recently gone through it all. Don't let them control your life, let him get used to your lifestyle. A guy I work with let his son dictate when and where they went, he's now 4 and they are only just starting to go places other than the grandparents.

Isabella is 9 months old and already a veteran of car shows! Open pipes, loud bands and strange people talking to hear is taken in her stride! As I'm sure Luka will do to . Its a great feeling..

 

Congratulations. He's truly a beautiful testament to the fact that you don't shoot blanks.

Cherish every moment, he'll be a teenage miscreant before you know it.

 

Boris, you legend! Hope it wasn't too painful. Rachel is due this week so I'm on tenderhooks.

It's cool if he looks like you (Peter looks like me apart from the questionable blond hair). But I'd rather my son look like me rather than my daughter because I've got a face like a busted arse. She'd never marry and live at home forever

Hope Sue's well. Call me if you need the Rumbler's parcel shelf modified for the baby seat bolt.

Bruce

 

Congrats Boris & Sue, good looking young un there.

BB

 

I use and recommend Nu Nile Hair Slick...works real well on kids too !!


To stuff guys, the look on yer face says it all !! Congrats !!!

Good one Boris,

next time we see pics - the hair'll be a bit greyer, and thinner, look at mine for proof.

Lana is 5 1/2 weeks at the moment and is woofing the food down like a champion.

Get ready for a few (laugh) sleepness nights - the first six months seems like a blur to me.

Best wishes to you, Sue and Luka

from Us Mountain Folk, in the Frozen Tundra called Katoomba

 

Don't worry, after twenty years of playing soccer as a defender, and subsequently 'copping a few for the team', I'm glad there was no permanent damage.

...nor did living through the 80s and stonewash, stretch-denim jeans seem to have an adverse affect!

Devilrod - Thanks mate. That's exactly what we plan on doing. I brought him home through Saturday morning Sydney shopping traffic in the Rambler. Was asleep the whole way. No open pipes, but I can work on that bit.

After a bit of a rest and feed we took him down the local cafe where we had lunch, then I took him for a stroll down to the beach.

It's all good.

Bob - Hope everything's going well. Maybe in 18 or 20 years we should hook up.

 

He's a beautiful little boy. Congrats to the whole family!

 

Congrats, Boris and Sue! Hey, I want to know, is that the glint of a roadster that I think I see in young Luka's eyes? Or is it a Winfield-styled custom? Must be one of 'em, don't you think? Good on 'ya, mate.

 

Finally got organised with some pics. This is just for the chicks, 'cos they dig this shit.

First night at home last night and it wasn't too bad. I think just being in your own bed makes it a lot easier for Mum.

Here's some pics from the last week or so...

The proud dad with his brand spanking new boy. He's got my eyebrows!



Sue's mum has come over from Perth for a couple of weeks. She arrived Sunday and Luka was born Monday. We didn't plan it like that, but we're pretty happy that's how it turned out.



Went out with a few mates on Wednesday night to wet the baby's head. Turns out nine or 10 schooners is probably more than enough. It just went downhill from here...



Some gratuitous semi-nudity



Leaving the hospital



The wonderful and very beautiful mum

 

Congratulations, nice looking family you have there.

 

Congratulations!!! It's great to see another young hot rodder! Did you get him his first wheels yet??

 

Can't believe you have your arse on that new paint job

 

NICE JOB.

 

It's alright, I wiped it first! (No, not my arse!)

Don't know if I'll be able to take you up on the trim offer mate. I've already got the baby seat sorted obviously, but the parcel shelf is bare metal.

Need to get the door trims on new backboards as well. Might just take your advice and use plywood and do it myself.

By the sound of it you're going to be a bit busy anyway.

 

BUT....

will he have perfect hair?

 

Since you'll be an expert on changing nappy's before too long (We expect a tech article with photos), I'll happily swap some work with you!


If you want to organise a time, I'll crank up the compressor and give you some tuition. X38 can come , as an observer only.

 

Wtf? Where did you say you wanted that license plate?

 

You got a hansom boy there.Congrats

 

Code:

Wtf? Where did you say you wanted that license plate? 

Gently resessed into my bumpers.

You'll be too busy grinding and welding my bars to "assist" us with a bit of sewing

 

Cool! When can I come and visit?

Has the second baby arrived yet?

 

i can't believe it! a greaser wearing a cold chisel t-shirt!

yer baby is super cute boris. my brother had a boy a couple of months ago so i "kinda" know how it feels. still a while off before i have some of my own though!!

and to think sue let you spend all this money on the rumbler right before you had a kid! she certainly is a keeper!

good onya mate.

 

Just saw this...

Congratulations on it!
Steve

 

What can I say. I 'used' to be a bogan!

Needed something with four doors and room for a baby seat. Sue's convertible wasn't quite practical enough. Glad I got it done in time.

A good mate of mine has been rebuilding his Falcon coupe for close on 20 years now. Plan was to have it done in time to bring the kids home from the hospital, but now he's got three kids and the car still ain't on the road.

Needless to say, he's a little bit fussier than me.

 

Come over anytime - I can give nappy lessons as well.

Second bubs will arrive any minute. Sooner the better though.

She's getting kranky

 

Might require an easyout.

 

The tatoo reads "WRONG WAY - GO BACK"

 

I didn't know your missus had any tatoos.
