The NASCAR baby boom of 2010 appears to be nearly over.
Daytona 500 and Brickyard 400 winner Jamie McMurray and wife Christy became the latest parents as they welcomed their new son Carter Scott McMurray into the world on Thanksgiving. Carter was 7lbs 12oz and 20' long. The baby is part of a mini-baby boom at McMurray’s team Earnhardt-Ganassi Racing as Carter makes the eighth baby born to members of the team this year.
McMurray’s teammate Juan Pablo Montoya was among those as he and wife Connie added a third child.
It’s also the latest addition to the NASCAR driver family. Last week Ryan and Krissie Newman announced the arrival of their first child Brooklyn Sage Newman.
So far this season, Elliott Sadler, Carl Edwards and Jimmie Johnson have become first time fathers.
In addition to Montoya, Jeff Gordon and wife Ingrid added Leo Benjamin Gordon in August; he became little brother to Ella who turned three in June.
The only driver awaiting a new arrival is Sam Hornish Jr. and his wife Crystal. They are expecting their second child on December 30th.
According to the team, mom and Baby Carter are doing ‘very well’.
