    For a fine little fellow:

    I hope his first words are "Roll Tide" ;)

    Congrats are definitely in order and especially to your daughter for weathering this with Dad unable to be there.  It takes a very special couple (with some very special support from their families) in this day and age to be able to deal with such a monumental event on their own.  You should be even more proud than I know you are for all she went thru.  

    On a lighter note-I have no doubt that his first toy will be a fork  ;)

    My stepdaughters were too old when I married their mom for me to be much of a dad to them, but I got to be a grandpa, and it is one of the great joys of my life!  That's a mighty handsome grandson you have there, and I know you will enjoy doting on him!

    What a fine looking boy!  Congrats!

    Edit:  Hates Michigan??  I don't think so because he's wearing blue.  GO Blue!

    Thanks everyone. I already miss seeing him first thing in the morning and even the baby cries in the middle of the night. 

    @Fred19Flintstone It's baby boy blue, not maize and blue blue. And why does your football team wear uniforms with a basketball player logo?
