It's a baby!!!

Post by :FI:Falcon » Wed Jan 09, 2008 7:08 pm

Well, I'm a real an' for true grampa now.

Image

Chelsea had an eight pound, 10.6 oz. baby girl this morning.

I think she will be named Shelby Ray.

...

Those of you who where hoping for Glitterfluff Twinkledust or some other common name are out of luck.

A pic of the wee one will be forthcoming ...

unless she's really funny looking.

In that case, I'll send more penguin pics.

I'm off to count toes,

Either it´s the language barrier or because I´m dumb - does the above post mean that you are daddy now?

If so happy birthday to the child !
And congratlations to you !

Oh ... I meant Shelby Ray! ;)

Doesn´t sound like a good German female name, does it? Naw, I´m not now disappointed that the little one won´t be named Gertrude, Wilhelmine oder Sieglinde ... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Who cares about it anyway ... I hope mother and child are up well and there weren´t any complications. Congrats to the parents and especially to the grandparents who have another mouth more to feed!!! :badgrin: :lol: ;)
