Greetings to my fj brothers old and new ..

I am now the proud grandfather of a bouncing baby girl 7lbs 15oz. 20" long named Charlotte . All is well with the new family addition .
I just had to share my joy with the group .  :yahoo:

I have been out of touch for a bit with the hot summer and work .
I hope everyone has been well and out riding their fj's.

Thanks for all the replies ,

It was an awesome experience to behold . The family was all in attendance at the hospital for the 54 hour labor that it took to be born into the world.
All the family was in town for labor day anyway so we just hung out at the hospital for the blessed event.
So with 12 family members and all that support baby charlotte was taking her time coming out till grandpa told her " time to get out of the pool"

My son in law hung in there and stepped right up and was a man about it . He is the master burp king after a few tips from grandpa and the rodeo style diaper change.
I have to say I am pleased with my son in law and the way he was a rock of strong support and help for my daughter .

Hey pat , Oh yeah I am wrapped around that little finger already . We live only 7 miles from my granddaughters home and that seems too far already.
already planning the playhouse in the backyard .

My other daughter looked at her husband while holding her brand new niece and I get the feeling there will be another grand baby in the near future.
something in the water ha ha.

Pics will come soon as I get them off the wifes phone into the computer..

Have a grreat day .

Mark,
CONGRATULATIONS.
If those 7 miles to your Granddaughters  home are 7 miles up Salmon Falls road, then double congratulations.
