Indy driver Tony Kanaan and wife expecting a son

Tony Kanaan, an IndyCar driver, and his wife, Dani, are currently expecting their first child -- a baby boy whom they plan to name Leonardo.

Tony humorously stated in a blog for MyRacer,

I'm telling you, there is no question that this child is mine. The boy has a nose like no other. Well, maybe one other. Seriously, I never thought some scratchy ultrasound photos could be beautiful, but they are.

Dani told me a funny story about the ultrasound. She had it done while she was away, and the doctor didn't know me from Adam, which is probably a good thing. Anyway, the doctor is taking her through the images of the ultrasound on the screen and explaining what she’s seeing. This is an arm, that’s a leg, there’s his head, and so on.

Then the doctor stopped. “And this great big part here?” he said. “That’s his nose.” I'm serious. He really said that. The doctor didn’t know me or my nose or my nose jokes. Dani said she couldn’t stop laughing. At first I didn’t believe her story, but then she showed me one of the photos. It was a profile. That’s my boy!
