All of them!
Congrats. You realize that any more backseat drivers and that CLK will have to go. Or like me just add a larger seating AMG or two or three.
Congrats on the health issues too! And the new Crib as well!!!
Party time.

Congrats Chappy!

Of course, now you'll have to trade in that W208 of yours for a Mini-van

Congrats...my little one will be turning 1 year old later this month. Daddy bought him his first Mercedes (see link below). You should order one of these for your little racer, it's little pricey for a toy, but not too bad, it looks super cool and great quality and very good detail. Of course I had it painted silver to match daddy's. It will do 3.5 mph and much nicer than anything you can pick up at Toys R Us or Wal-Mart, plus he will be the only kid on your block sporting a Benzo. He will also be aquiring my CLK Black Series when his is old enough to drive and responsible enough to handle the power. My son is a 2008 model so is my Black Series

Many thanks for the kind replies.

Grant Thomas a/k/a "G.T." is 2 weeks old. His 2-year old brother has taken to him well, thankfully. Can't wait to get moved into the new pad and get settled....still tripping over boxes, Christmas toys, stacks of diapers, etc.

Life is good.
