Ya can't beat grand babies. More fun than anything.

What a cutie and you know you have the edge. Girls have a special place in their hearts for their grandpas.

Congratulations!

Tell us something.: I play whistles. I sell whistles. This seems just a BIT excessive to the cause. A sentence or two is WAY less than 100 characters.

Wonderful family photos! Congrats!
Every time I turn around, I wonder where I've been.
Time to stop turning round, I guess.

Congratulations on the grandbaby! Our will be 8 yrs old next week. She has been to our house at least once a week since she was born. We used to have crawling races across the kitchen floor. Next was when I would nod off on the couch and she would wake me up by jumping up and down on my chest. Then there were hide and go seek games when we hid in the same places every time because it's the finding that's the most fun. Now we do her math homework with her. She doesn't really need our help but it gets done faster when one of us is sitting there. The most important thing is to be there and be a part of her life. You are in for a lot of fun!

Congratulations on the new arrival. Cute baby and nice looking family.

Was Taylah born in Boston? I noticed she's already dropping her "R"s.

P.S. Happy birthday to Grandpa, too.

Thanks to everyone for your congrats, wishes and stories. I really am looking forward to the interactions that are so talked about.

I have heard the greatest thing about being a grandparent is that for most of them they can send the kid home when it gets trying!!!! :o

If ever I saw a classic lip-blocking embouchure, that's it! I recommend a Lee Oskar harp in G to start with, Paddy Richter-tuned of course. "My Darling Asleep" would be a great first tune, and a hint to boot!

All the best to y'all! :party:

I am not exactly sure what you mean, Steve (translation please) but I am SURE it is a complement.
