Congrats Grandpa.
Seems taking a nap is the only thing you can do when they're that young, they are ready for play in a few months.

Congratulations, Paul! I also remember Anna as a young one.
Is this your first grandchild?

This is number one. But, Anna tells me there will be two more coming down the line. She has paused her teaching career and doesn't plan on picking it up again until number three starts school.
Or so is the plan.
Hubby Josh has taken six weeks off, so it is a cozy little family unit. Anna, Josh, Henry, and, of course, with grandpa and grandma on call 24/7 (Charlene worked remote from the House of Henry most of the week.)

Epaul,
Congratulations to you and the family! You sir, will be a wonderful grandpa.
We had our first about 1 1/2 years ago. It has been wonderful. The big issue for us was what I want the grand baby to (eventually) call me. I opted for "Pappy Van Wrinkle," inspired by the highly touted whiskey. It has not caught on yet.
His only words so far are, "Mama" "Dada" and "Guitar." (I worked hard on the latter).
Enjoy this chapter.

A sleeping baby on your chest is the best. Congrats! Grandkids are great! This one and her sister will be driving in a month. They grow up fast.  |

Paul: congratulations to your family and best wishes for the years of enjoyment to come.
My mom always told me that having a grandson was the greatest. Time to start honing your living-room wrestling skills. 😃

Congratulations! Nothing better than being a grandpa! You finally have someone your own age to play with. Or nap with, as the case may be.

Most excellent. Still a long ways off here, if it ever happens. Enjoy.
