Twisted Sister singer Dee Snider has welcomed grandchildren before — but not like this. 

“We had the baby in the CAR on the 405!,” the ’80s rocker’s eldest son, 33-year-old Jesse Blaze Snider, said in an Instagram video posted Sunday afternoon. “No, joke. Easiest birth we’ve had.”

Wait, what? 

“We were a little surprised by it all. We waited a little too long to leave, I think,” an “adrenalized” Jesse said in the video. “But! The baby’s healthy, and already breast-feeding, and we love her.” 

Jesse pans from his face to his smiling wife of nine years, Patty, who’s cradling newborn Parker Pryde in the passenger seat. (In addition to being a musician, he’s a TV host, so the camera work is actually pretty decent.)

“OK, traffic light is changing. Awesome,” he said as he wrapped up the video.

The baby is the couple’s fourth and, according to Grandpa Dee, weighed 8 pounds, 10 ounces when she was born at about 2:50 p.m. Sunday.  

"It was just amazing, the most amazing experience of my life," Jesse Snider told ABC7. "I'm even more amazed by how happy it's making everyone else to hear about it."

They were on the way to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center from Valley Glen, he told the station, but made it only halfway there. They apparently cut it close before, he said, with baby No. 3, but that time they made it to the hospital. Valley Glen is between Van Nuys and North Hollywood.

Dee Snider, 61, who on Saturday had a concert in Germany, tweeted about the birth Sunday and dubbed Patty Snider a “Viking.” Twisted Sister is due in England next weekend to play at a festival in Derbyshire.

With luck, grandpa’s tour bus won’t wait too long to leave for the show.
