Enjoy the moment.

True.

And its gotten significantly easier since my girl recently turned 1. She just learned to walk, so that has just added to the excitement.

Congrats to you, and wish you and your family all the very best.

Green///Hell · 10-12-2009, 06:13 PM

That's really dope man. Now just get twin M's so they each ride in their own

FrenchBoy · 10-12-2009, 06:48 PM

Okay, now you have to share photos of the little ones :-)

My boy is now 18 months and the E90 has been great so far.

linsm3 · 10-12-2009, 07:13 PM

Your babies are really cute, congrats. I have four of my own but now that they're older I got the coupe, I would have done the same if they were little. Enjoy parenthood!!!!

thetoecutter · 10-12-2009, 07:16 PM

Congrats. Kids are pretty unbelievable. My wife and I are in the same boat - 8 yr old boy/girl twins. One more reason for me to order the sedan although I am partial to 4-doors anyway.

SpencerM3 - Those girls will occupy most of the rest of your life and you'll never regret a moment of it. After our twins were born, my car washing went from weekly to three times a year (maybe) and I do not give a shit. Car is parked in the street because I would never force my wife and kids out of the relative safety of our single car driveway. It's pretty funny reading this forum because you can easily tell who has kids and who does not.

Hint: I've never visited the Washing/Detailing forum!

I am not judging others - I was there once and enjoyed my time. I simply cannot ever return to that world. Fathering kids puts everything you thought you cared about in new perspective.

Enjoy your girls SpencerM3!

FrenchBoy - looks like I am getting the same car as you.

Jdebitjr · 10-12-2009, 07:30 PM

Your first mod: two car seats!

kenwr120 · 10-12-2009, 08:03 PM

Congratulations! Kids do amazing things for a person's perspective. On a practical note - look into seat protectors for the back seats (consider going with hard protectors so as to not 'dent' the leather seats). They're as messy as they are cute...

Once again, best wishes.

dgbos · 10-12-2009, 08:11 PM

Awesome - congrats! My little boy was due the same day 10/10 but he came 2 weeks early on Sept 26th! Have a 2 year old girl as well. I should have went sedan!

M3twins · 10-12-2009, 08:44 PM

That's what happens when you get your oil changed outside of normal intervals!! LOL!

My wife and I have twins too. Two years old now.. And that is of course why I am known as M3twins! Congrats and hang in there!! First couple months are rough, especially with twins!!!

Echo M3 · 10-12-2009, 09:00 PM

Congrats man, new kids and a new car, what could be better?

NewM3driver · 10-12-2009, 09:58 PM

CUTE! Congrats.... Life as you know it is OVER (but it gets better).

You're good for years... 11 yr old son and 9 yr old daughter fit in my sedan just fine.

Lots of guys go to the track on weekends. My M does little league, soccer, gymnastics, dance, golf, tennis, lacrosse, judo, wrestling and Pop Warner.

We have one rule. No cleats in Daddy's car.

Buschy · 10-12-2009, 10:01 PM

congrats.

Robin_NL · 10-13-2009, 12:39 PM

Congrats! Turbo twins

AMOCHOSTO · 10-13-2009, 12:42 PM

Congrats!

We just had a boy 6 weeks ago. He loves to go for rides in my E90. When mom drives him around in her SUV he cries and bitches, but when he's in my car, I set the suspension to sport and he's quiet (until I hit a stop light).

It's a good opportunity to go for a spin in the M3 and get bonus points at the same time! "hey hon, let me get the whining monkey-boy out of your hair for an hour or two. A drive is just the thing he needs to chill out!"

ching · 10-13-2009, 11:09 PM

Congrats! I feel the same way about my kids.

I think the sedan is great. I call it the family sedan and enjoy blowing by folks in a car with two car seats in the back and baby on board sign dangling on the rear window.

biglare · 10-14-2009, 01:13 AM

Congrats!

Now you have to get a pair of these!
