I'm a grandfather!!

Postby Colinm » Mon Apr 06, 2009 9:44 am

Hi All,
Just had to share the news that on Friday at 15.15hrs I became a grandfather. Katie Ellen was 4 weeks early and weighed in at 2758 grms (6lb 1oz). Daughter in law and Son are both doing well :lol:

So, next time you get a chance raise 'una copa vino tinto' to Katie Ellen (named after both grandmothers, just to keep the peace!)

Colin

Great news, Colin, we are also enoying our first grandchild, just a few months old.
It's such a relief when they arrive and all is well, isn't it ? Katie Ellen is a pretty name.

Congratulations Colin! What wonderful news (and great names)!

Like Peachie, I too imagined you as a leather clad youngster loving his bikes! :oops:

Enjoy your grand-daughter!
