Joe Gibbs Racing driver Denny Hamlin and longtime girlfriend Jordon Fish announced the birth of their daughter early Monday morning on Twitter.
According to the post Taylor James Hamlin arrived at 8:20 Sunday night or as the proud father Tweeted: Born Jan 20 at 20:20! The Tweet said that the baby girl was 6 pounds 5 ounces and 20 inches. The pregnancy was announced last August during the NASCAR Sprint Cup weekend at Pocono Raceway. At the time, Hamlin said he would be leaning on his parents to help out.
“My family has done a lot for me to get to this point obviously, and just all of the sacrifices and all that they've gone through,” Hamlin said. “My dad tells me all of the time that some of the best times he had is just carrying me around in his pickup truck every day taking me to work with him and things like that. It's going to be a great experience and so I'm really excited about it and really just excited to be a part of it. For my parents to have grandkids is all going to be good. Everything works great, things happen and we're excited about the timing.”
Indeed the timing could not have been better for the driver as January is the off season in NASCAR. The series won’t see action again until the middle of next month.
