Default It's a girl!!

I'm a Grandfather for the very first time. My daughter in law gave birth to a 7 pound 1 ounce little girl at 3:50 Friday afternoon. Here is her debut photo, taken through the nursery window after her first bath. There is a shadow on the glass that makes her look red but she is all pink and beautiful.



I'll be back at the hospital this afternoon where I will get to hold her for the first time.

This being a grandfather thing is pretty cool. I want to thank everyone for the good wishes, they are appreciated. Now I am going to get ready to go back to the hospital to take more pictures.

Congratulations. I never thought being a grandparent was something I'd be happy about (due to the age thing), but it sure is cool.

Congratulations. The time will go quickly so use it wisely as it is precious. My 1st granddaughter just graduated from high school number 1 in her class by .07 of a grade point. This fall she'll be attending the honors college at the University of South Carolina.

Congrats to the whole family!

So, you got the first pistol but how about a nice pink .22 Cricket? She might be on the Olympic team one day and it's important to start early you know.

Congratulations, Grandpa! May he grow in love and health.

My grandson is now 13, but at age 3, he was kinda interested in tractors. Imagine that!
