Congrats, dude!
Grandparenting is all the joys of parenting without the less joyous parts. Just be sure to be one of those hip grandparents that they'll still want to hang out with even when they are teens ;-)

Perfect! a New Sherpa in training. Contrats! Boy, you're right on there. By the time she/he's old enough to backpack, I'll certianly be old and decrepit enough to need someone to haul all that stuff.

I know at least two other couples who were in the process of adopting when they found out they were pregnant. My theory is they finally stopped "trying to conceive" and that's when it happens. Anyway, congrats! Be sure to post lots of baby photos.

Congrats, man!! Babies are better when you can spoil them and you are getting a 6 year old, too, so you don't even have to wait!

Congrats!
Grandchildren are more fun than the spawn that spawned them.

Congrats! You will make a really fun grandpa. Plus, good incentive to keep on trucking, yourself, so you can take the kid backpacking someday.
