Hey Jim, congrats.
I have to say though, you can make them go faster. A can of Dew and a Hershey bar will wind a four year old up to the red line in a hurry. Then you give them back to Mom.

Thanks everyone, we are still waiting to hear the name they picked out.
They have been married for 9 years going on 10 but they wanted to wait until they both had their Masters Degree first before they had any kids.
They live only about 21.84 miles away from us I can get there in less than 27 minutes.

Congratulations Papaw Jim!! I think I would wait before I gave the child a girl name. I have a friend who thought theirs was a girl and set up the nursery for a girl. The day it was born...surprise it was a boy! I guess things were hiding when the UT was done. Anywho, I pray it is healthy with very strong lungs on its birthday!! .....BrainFade I read your post and fell off my puter chair laughing so hard. My wife teaches 1st. grade and her kids come to school with stuff like that for lunch....go figger!

Congratulations!!!
One of my 4 children has children 3 of them - Two girls and one boy ranging from 1-11 years old. I have had a blast from day one.
You are going to have so much fun! It is a whole different experience.

They are pretty confident it is going to be a she from all of the ultrasounds and the lack of things to be seen but there is always a chance.
All that I want is for it to be healthy, after that nothing else matters but I would really like to have a granddaughter, and be healthy, did I mention that yet.
