in Non Cigar Related
My daughter-in-laws due date was Dec 2nd. They are going to induce labor tommorrow Dec. 7th at 6 AM. Hopefully all goes well and our first grandchild will be here Tuesday , a baby girl , Hailee , thats the spelling they are using . My son wants me and my wife to meet them at the hospital at 5:30 am tommorrow morning ... crap , I better go to bed now , after all I am almost a grandpa !!!
Anyway , what would be a good celebratory smoke ? Im leaning toward an AF Anejo # 77 or an Ashton VSG or ESG. Then there are a couple of ISOM options as well ... Partagas Ser D or a Monte # 2 or a unbanded treat from a friend who was born in Cuba and is now a Miami attorney who gave me a stick and said " call me and thank me after you smoke it " .

    Well, what do you know ! Grandpa Geno. Congratulations to everyone. Sounds like the unbanded treat would be the way to go. Then you can share the good news and thank him at the same time.

    Congrats gramps! I would have to say the " call me and thank me after you smoke it " cigar. That just sounds too intruiging to pass up!

    I just became an uncle today for the first time myself, so I'm going to have to figure out a celebratory stick myself. The wife's brother and his wife had their first child - named her Madeline.

    No doubt. I'm sure you're quite the busy (and ecstatic) man right about now, but when you get a chance to log back on you gotta let us know how everyone is doing, yourself included. Best to ya bro, um, I mean gramps!

    Just got home from the hospital...and welcoming Hailee Rose Miller to this world of ours. Mother and baby girl are both doing fine and my son is ecstatic, as are my wife and I. Weighed in at 7.5 lbs and almost 22 inches long !!! A long labor but everyone is fine. I have decided to heed the majority of you and smoke the ISOM mystery stick , but it may have to wait till this weekend now when it warms up some and I actually have the free time. Thanks for all the well wishes . I"M A FREAKIN" GRAND POPPY WHOOOOHOOOOOOO !!!

    I don't know who makes those blankets and hats, but they have got a damn good thing going. I don't care where in the world you see a newborn, you ALWAYS see that exact same blanket and hat. My 2 kids had the exact same ones. Wish I could get a monopoly going like that.

    Awesome pic BTW gypsy! I'm going to be seeing my niece for the first time this weekend and will have to pick out a nice smoke for me and the bro-in-law. Sis-in-law actually enjoys cigars too but I kinda doubt she'll be up for one.
