    Gonna be a Grampa

    Found out a bit ago that my son and his fiancé are with child. The baby is due in May 2018 I believe. They’re hoping for a boy. I keep teasing them it’s twin girls. Wife and I just really hope for a healthy baby

    Congratulation. Yes lets all hope for a health baby. Grand children are the best. Only thing better is if you live long enough to have great grand children.

    The thought of grandchildren scares me. Better be at least 5 or 6 years until the first one comes along!

    I also found out I was going to be a grandpa. They did a gender reveal last weekend and it's going to be a boy.(Should be). DNA test is supposed to be 99.9 percent. Hopefully.

    Told my son Cars And Guns. He laughed.

    I have 4 granddaughters and a grandson, and all I can say is that I couldn't have even imagined having grandkids like these. They are wonderful! I feel really blessed.

    I've got 3 boys and a girl bringing in the rear, when the they come over it's like a tornado going thru the house, good kids but very high spirited, wouldn't have it any other way.
    I heard a saying that said grandkids are the reward for letting your kids live .
    "People in Arizona carry guns," said Detective David Ramer, a Chandler police spokesman. You better be careful about who you are picking on...

    That’s a great saying about letting your kids live. That would make a great tee shirt or coffee cup or sign.
    With grandkids you can get them all sugared up, give them all the noisy toys and the send them home with their mom and dad. That’s what my Kids grands and great grandpa do.

    Happy birthday gramps! I'm hoping to enjoy being a grandparent someday, hopefully that will be a while though. My oldest is 19 and has his head up his ***, we'll see.
    Keep moving forward!

    Of all the things I've been called, nothing feels like hearing "Papa Steve". I have 11 of them, from almost a year to 13. I call them my minions.

    I know about where kids have their heads. Mine are in the same boat. But they will have a good support system. Maybe this grand baby will quiet my wife down about wanting to adopt a Chinese baby. Lol.

    First time grand Parents are about to start the rest of their life. Nothing will ever be the same, and until it happens you simply can't imagine what it feels like.
