Georgio Balen arrived at 6:00 AM Thursday morning. 7 lbs 12 oz., 21 inches long. He is my fourth grandchild, and now all three if my kids have made me a Grandpa.

The 3rd and 4th pictures are Georgio with his older cousins.

Congrats, gramps! The nice thing about grandkids is that you can send them home to mama and poppa when you're through playing with them.

He turns his head and eyes toward voices. He was only 1/2 hr old when he turned at the sound of his mothers voice and looked right at her.

Bobitis · 08-09-2009, 06:09 PM

Your grandkids have the smiles to die for!

Good genes there Pops!

Grandkids are a LOT more fun than kids, because you are EXPECTED to spoil them, and let their parents live with the results!!
