I'm a Grandfather!

"Winston" was born at 11:18 AM in New York City. 7 lbs, 11 oz. Mom, husband and baby are doing well. This picture is about one minute after he was born. My first Grand Kid.

Why she named him after a cigarette I'll never know. She and her husband seem to be on a kick of old English names, they named their dog "Alfred".

Congratulations Hugh.

As a Grandfather it is your duty to either come up with cool nickname to replace Winston or teach him how to kick some ass.

The dog is on his own.

Hey, howzabout Kool for a nickname?

Seriously, awesome news Hugh, he's a handsome boy and won the birth lottery with Grandpa like you.

Congratulations!

Being grandpa is even more fun than being a father.

congratulations! Be thankful he wasn't named after a Star Wars character (have seen a couple of Anakins and one attempted Jet)
