I'm gonna be a Grandpa!
My daughter is about 36.5 weeks along. She was having pains yesterday, wife took her to her doctor's appt, found she was at 3 cm's. I'm told 4 cm's is where things really pick up speed.
They sent her to the hospital, but she didn't progress and they sent her home.
Saturday will be 37 weeks, if Mr Jacob doesn't decide to make his entrance before then, they will induce labor. Feeling very blessed and ready to be a Grandpa!

Congratulations.. Remember when the time comes that when babysitting that you spoil them rotten and fill them up with sugary treats before you send them home to the parents tagging a note reminding them of payback for when they were young. ......................... drill sgt.

I’ve had many “job titles” throughout my life, but my favorite is “Papa”. Grandchildren are your reward for raising your own kids.

Congratulations and best wishes for you and your family in this very blessed event!

Congratulations!
By today's standards, we are rich in grandchildren, with 2 boys and 2 girls.
As my late co-grandpa LeRoy said:
"If I'd known they were this much fun, I would have had them first!"
