h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

As a number of you already know, my dear darling daughter finds herself with another "bun in the oven". While they are raising a daughter by himself and another, and have two mutually designed and developed sons, ... they hoped to build a daughter between them. Preferably after they had self-sustaining employment and income.

Well, I guess some ultra-talented little swimmer beat the odds. According to her , the next edition ought to make an appearance around January 10th. By her own timings, memory and an internet calculator of such things, she expects January 30th to be more correct.

So, anyone want to take their psychic (or psychotic) guess as to when, and the gender? Who-ever proves to be closest wins the priviledge of either helping me to offset the expenses of spoiling another, or buying a realistic hair-piece for me. Because I am sure these kids will make me bald one day.

Congrats grandpa-to-be-again

Good Lady.

I will be kind and not continue to flood this journal with all of her trials and tribulations. It's enough that we get the daily reports of twinges, appetite, ... ummm, ... other natural functions.

Congratulations to you and M'Lady

Also to the prospective Mum and Dad to be .....Hope everything goes well and she has a healthy pregnancy and birth!

Having just gone through all that very recently, I know what an anxious time it can be, so my thoughts will be with you all

She's a tough girl, and seems to be built just right for the challenge. She just likes to play a bit for the sympathy though, ya know?

oh

CONGRATS..to the GRANDPA again...

Your time will come too, Lady Vixen. But for now, thank you kindly.

I can't wait for it...

If I knew grandkids were such fun, I'd have done that first...

I saw that on a bumper sticker one day at the time G-force was in the backseat screaming his head off

I rejoice with you on the new baby that will soon arrive. No pain can compare with the bundle of joy a new birth unfolds. I am sure your daughter will be as strong as you are.

We all are waiting to celebrate together as one big family.

Once again, congratulations.

Thank you, my friend.

congratulations
lets hope it all works out fine and you have another healthy happy addition top the family.

maybe we should petition for a boottee smiley

the closest im ever likely to become a grandparent is to the little lady of my life.
for those that dont know, she is my partner's son's daughter.
im not technically related to her, but she counts me as one of her closest 'nans'
she is 3 and im sure she has the brain of a 33 year old and doesnt mind letting you know how wrong you are

And from all that I've heard, a real treasure for any family.

But yes, with the various generations around h2g2, a bootie or a stork smiley would be

Congrats dear
Of course a new addition will make you sooooooo much older than me!

Somehow, m'dear, I just knew you'd work that in.

But as you know, over here we do everything bigger and better. So I guess that's gotta include the number of little off-sprung running about.

congratulations and with coping with the little

, mate. You do realize that one of his or her first gifts will be a good selection of stripey socks?

Stripy Booties, I can make some if you want, in a nice shade of green and yellow

Indeed, a very distinctive pattern, eh?

I'll let ya know what the Mommy thinks.

I do have baby yellow and baby green so it wouldn't be that bad
