Dang, all this posting tonight and I fail to mention that I am up and waiting on my daughter in law and 2 grandkids to show up.
I can't wait till they get here. It will be only the 3rd time I have seen my grandkids, they are 3 (she will turn 4 on Tuesday while they are here) and 2. :D
Since I am grandpa....when that 2 year old drops land mines in her diapers....I get to hand her back to mom. :D Until then, I get to spoil her rotten :D

Aww.. congrats Elfie.
You seem to be set for a great time. Grandparents only gets the best jobs, but then they have earned it :)

oh lord. that takes a lot of courage. a friend is in the same situation sort of he has a four year old grand daughter and his new wife and he have an eight month old son. he's fifty-five and she's thirty, her first child. I can't imagine having to start a new family at my age so I'm content with my grandchildren, happily we all live within one half hour of each other and we watch the kids for our daughter when she works, they are here every day.
in fact some of you have been shot down by lorelai, my two year old GD. she says "shoot the red guy grandpa" as I manuever into position for her to kit the "N" key and laughs with glee when someone goes *poof*.

My son is 24, my first wife gave birth to him. I am only 44. I don't think I could handle having another one at 55. :lol I didn't want another one but now that she is here she is every bit as precious to me as the other two. Although I must admit that after she was born I probably had the baby blues even worse than my wife did. Once I got over that though, I realized just what a bundle of joy she really is.
Her name is Amanda, I call her Mandy. Sometimes I sing this song to her and she loves it. I love my Mandy-boo, I love my Mandy-boo, I love my Mandy-boo because shes my silly goose! Then she will sing back to me....I love my Daddy-boo, I love my Daddy-boo cuz he's a silly goose!! :D

Hehehe I am in Louisiana at the home of the step son and his family. They have 6 on the ground now and #7 due in 8 weeks. It's been fun spoiling the kids and showing them all sorts of neat toys like little havoc helcopters, water rockets, balsa gliders and parachutes. Then when they are all wound up we turn them back over to Mom and Dad and go to our RV accross the yard. :t

grrrr :D we have two so far and are lobbying our second daughter and her husband to step up to the plate

When mine got here, due to not seeing me much, they were to shy to fork over any hugs just yet.....but that will change soon enough :)
-
Real happy for you Elfie :)
-
Congratulations Elfie,
No grandkids yet and not much possibility of having them around for some time (the oldest of our 4 is 6 years old.)
My wife and I waited seven years before we started having children, I wish someone had told me when I got married that raising children is a young man's game (I just don't have the energy to keep up with them these days!)
Have fun and don't skimp on devotions while they are around. ;)
-
I probably won't have any more grandkids for awhile yet. I don't think my son and his wife are to keen on having more. My daughters...well...at 12 and 3....it will be awhile yet (and it better be a LONG WHILE) before they give me any grandkids. :)
The older one just had a minor tiff over a toy with my youngest......so Grandpa got to go smooth things over and I got my first hug from that one. :D

I won't ;)
