    I'm gonna be a grandpa

    Just found out last week that my eldest son and his wife are expecting. They had the ultrasound this week, and guess what?...

    ...Twins. We're all pretty excited.

    I imagine there are a few grandpas lingering around this forum. Does this mean I have to start wearing suspenders?

    Good for you Deano. I have no grand kids or any on the horizon far as I know but I'm told they are great. Have fun with them, when they become bothersome send em home.

    I think the suspenders are optional but I don't feel qualified to give an answer on that one.

          A grandkid is the greatest thing ever. Their laughter is the best med available for old bones.

          Twins! Have fun.
          I was once asked if I was "a paranoid for carrying my Kahr".
          "Nope" I said, "just prepared".
          " prepared for what" he asked?

              Glad to know suspenders aren't mandatory. I've already got the bifocals.

              Due date is late Dec. Maybe a Christmas baby (or two).

Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."

                  Congrats Deano Grand kids are great. If anything they keep you younger. Plus it's a great way to get back at your own kids for all the crap they put you through. You can spoil the hell out of your grandkids. I like to get them all sugared up and bouncing off the walls right before I drop them back off.

                    Grandkids are indeed a rewarding experience. Although I have to wait a little while before I can start to rile them up and send them home as my son and his family are living with us right now until they can get back on their feet. But it's all good. Now when I get home from work I'm not only energetically greeted by my dog, but the grandkids as well.

                        Congrats Deano to you and your family. No grandkids but 4 great nieces and a great nephew here, that have turned Unca Kebbin into the biggest wuss on the planet! Suspenders are still optional!

                              My kid was supposed to be a Christmas baby, but well she showed her personality, even then and had to come early. Still wouldn't trade her.
