    So we were talking today with my oldest grandson Jordan, he's 3 and the fisherman pictured above. I asked about his new baby sister that will be arriving in October. We were discussing possible names for her and he decided what the perfect name for her would be "Jordan Jr." - too cute!

    I always say my only real regret about not having had children is that I won't be having any grandchildren.

    nikkib0103....I had four kids. They tell me all my grandkids will have 4 legs and a tail. So far...that's pretty accurate.

    There's always hope. But before dog clicked into my brain I was thinking, hmmm, her kids are going to give her some fairly unattractive and probably poorly behaved kids.

    My grandson is doing an overnight with us. He had to try all my helmets, bike, motorcycle, rock climbing, fire chief, skiing. (Maybe grandpa is the kid). Here we are 'going to a 'mergancy'.

    Very nice! It's great to show little boys they can grow up to be big boys.

    Farback, I imagine he was in hog heaven. What little boy wouldn't be? Plus he is awfully cute. I am sure he was a hige hit in the firehouse..

    It's nice you get to see your grandchildren. Sometimes it gets complicated.

    Ooooohhh, congrats BRaye, so precious.

    I'll keep hoping for one of those from my youngest daughter..............a girl can hope right?

    My grandson just broke his arm last week so he's now sporting a really cool camouflage cast on his right arm. Luckily, it was a hairline fracture and no growth plate issues or anything. He goes back to school tomorrow and I can just see his face in my mind when he shows off his cast. Bragging rights!!!
