I don't know where the Griffin came from, but my maternal grandfather's first name was Farris. That would be Grif's great-great grandfather. And it's dad Graham's middle name as well; gives them both the same initials: GFW.

Congratulations, Greg! :) The nice thing about grandchildren is you can usually send them home at night. In my case, home is Arizona. :laugh2:  :laugh2:

What's the official grandpa name in the Wells family? Don't think you want the baby to call you Cheater...
