Wow, I'm a grandpa
Or big Daddy Deuce as my daughter called me when introducing me to her new niece and my first grandchild...

Aidan Elizabeth was born tonight 7:26 EST to my oldest daughter Jasmine and her Husband Josh. She weighed 8 lbs 11 oz.

I'm currently uploading pics, but here's one for you guys.



It's been a pretty darn good week!

OUT FREAKING STANDING JOHN!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations to your Son-in-law and daughter, indeed your whole family.
8LBs?!?!?!?!?
Wow.
Just remember, their dirty-go to your mother; their hungry-go to your mother; their crying-go to your mother;
they want to play-come here.
Daddy Deuce that is one great looking kid, and mom looks pretty happy too.
One more thing DD, always keep some cash on hand. Grampa's are a soft touch.

Thanks everyone!

Yeah, I dunno if I could be any happier!

AS for little Aidan being a musician? Her mother played bass for a short while as a teenager, so did her aunt. Two Aunts sing like larks. Another aunt plays guitar and keyboards, but her uncle can't carry a tune in a bucket!

Let's hope she takes after her mom and aunts!


Guess I better go start working on that super short scale tele!

And don't worry, I know just how much change and candy I need to keep in my pocket now!

Congrats! Spoil that kid, fill it full of sugar, buy her toys that make lots of noise, and send her home!

Congrats John.

I've got a couple of grand kids myself and will be going to the youngest ones 3rd birthday in about a month.

Garytelecaster has the directions for grand kids right too. That's the way to do it.

Great news man.

Congratulations. If only I could be that lucky.

Now you have someone to blame when you buy another tele.
"But honey, I'm starting Aiden a tele collection." lol
