Congratulations!! You can now be grumpy and cuddly at the same time. Get your cardigan, pipe and slippers out and stock up with Werthers toffees. Grandson or Granddaughter?

Grandson, a bit on the dinky side at 5lb 7.5oz but he's been allowed home with mum cos everything checked out and worked fine.

Jess was in at 5am, baby born at 6.35am and allowed home at 12.30pm - that's less time to have a baby than the little cowbag would take tidying her bedroom when she was a kid.

Not a Grumps, I'm a cheery sort with the kids. I'll be known as Grandadish, because Jess is my ex-nearly-step-daughter. In short, I inherited her after her real dad died but never actually married her mum, then we split. I've always treated her and her siblings as I would my own though, even after I left, hence she's my 'daughter' and she calls me her 'dad'.

My Granpa isn't actually my mums dad but she always says "Anyone can be a father but it takes someone special to be a Dad."

I believe that too MBK, but that line was never used with our kids because we never wanted to undermine the love the kids have for their real dad. Instead we used to say that parents will always love their kids because they are their own kids, but I'd chosen to love them so that made them extra special.

Oh yeh! I get that, didn't mean to undermine their real dad! Diff circumstances. I like your way of describing it.=D>

I know what you meant to be saying, and in other circumstances I'd be quite happy using it. Took me ages to think of a nice way of putting what I meant to say to the kids without making it sound like their own dad didn't care, because everyone knew he was actually a bloody good dad.

One day a little while after we'd started going out, my ex's mum said something like "What would Mark say if he was here now?" to which I replied "Probably something like 'Laurie, will you please stop sleeping with my wife now' ". It kinda broke the ice.

Poor little sod, fancy growing up knowing you've got years of Lozzo's opinions in front of you :(

Awww, Loz you're a softy at heart!

Was this ever in doubt :rolleyes:

Congrats to you and Jess :D

Ta, Jess is back in hospital cos little man wasn't well last night, so they are running tests just to be on the safe side. I haven't heard anything from Jess or her mum to say it's serious, so fingers crossed it's just something simple like a cold. They'd let me know if there was something going on, so I'll say no news is good news and hope Jess and little man have a decent kip.
