What can one say. Seeing a glimpse of your childs face - for the very first time.
I’m stunned - terrified, excited, and so much in love with a child that I haven’t even met… He’s an extension of me - a new member of a big and scary world - under my protection.
Good thing he’s cute. I guess I can’t call him Skeletor anymore. I think Benjamin fits, how bout you?

More to come!
Real little guy…love him already - can’t wait to see more pics- I’m his Grandad
Oh yes, we will pick up a Baby Book for the little lad and send you guys a care packagefor Benjamin in a couple of weeks time.
Hey, it’s ole Grandada again. Good shots some of them, active little fellow…..yes he is a guy!
This is so GREAT I find it hard to believe! I am really getting excited for both of you and myself as well. I’m still not sure about Ben , but he will be loved very much by Gramma, regardless of his name.t
Is he gonna be a Dry Fly fisherman, or a Wet Fly? I need to know so I can get to tying.
Oh yeah…. I’d calll him Ranger something or other myself.
Well you can always call him Ranger Ben, Ranger Bob
And of course, this little guy is going to be adorable!
I think Grandpa is smitten already.
Of course……Benjamin is much wanted, much loved. For us, he’s a “one of” and that makes him extra special. (By the way, that’s Gran-Dad
So when’s the little man due anyways?! Darren and I wanna take you out for dinner before he comes (and when D’s home for a few days)
Greg & Lin: Benjamin’s a good, respectable name — and less prone to bullying than Skeletor would’ve been
Ranger Bob: You start them fishing early up there, don’t you?
We like it too - however… We really had our hearts set on “Furious Skeletor Winston Scratchley” but it didn’t fit on the application for EI.
Skeletor “sucks” - no grandchild of mine would have such a moniker. Horrible names ended with his Gran-dad!
Well, the name certainly lost its relevance by this point so it wouldn’t have been as appropriate and, I suppose, that’s a good thing
At least Skeletor would’ve been a cooler name than He-Man though…
