This morning at 6:37 mountain time, my youngest son
Edited on Sat Mar-18-06 03:18 PM by OhioBlues
and his SO welcomed a 5 lb 14 oz baby boy into the world. I am so happy for them. I haven't seen the newbie yet(being so far away) but I've been told by reliable sources that he is adorable.

The parents are: animal loving, pro choice, organic supporting, bleeding heart liberals. This child, as a fetus attended several anti war rallies and a System of a down concert. I feel there is a good possibility he will choose his party affiliation wisely, lol. I am very, very happy that all is well and as soon as I get some pictures I will share.

12. Well
I had a tough childhood so I moved out at 15 and had both of my kids at young age. However, now that my baby is a dad, it's official, I'm old enough to be a grandma!:loveya:

29. YaY! My daughter went on the Superman ride at 6 Flags as a fetus, lol.
I had no idea that I was pregnant at the time, but it all worked out for the best, so now she's quite the little daredevil lol.

Congrats on the commiepinkolattedrinkingmohaircardiganwearingwindsurfingelitest grandbaby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

44. 'deed, I do!
If she ever has children, I wonder how I'll react. Actually, I think I'll react just fine. The older of my two brothers (who is 4 years my junior) became a grandfather a little over a year ago, and I confess to having a bit of envy about that!

53. Yeah, he has a lot of knowledge that he still remembers.
If only we could converse with babies, I'm sure that we'd learn quite a bit. :)

I'm sure that you can't wait to get your hands on him!
