If she was due at the end of October, she should have had a baby by now. I would bet that papa is holding out trying to make as much money off the announcement as he can. He seems to like to use his daughters in that way!

Judith, Melissa, Lily and all – maybe you started that paragraph with a bias against him before reading it. He never said he was too old to be *called* Grandpa, and he was *joking* about being too young. Lots of people say that jokingly, not to mention it was said as a laugh!

When is she due anyway? I thought she was due in october, but I guess not lol anyone know what she is having and what they are naming him/her?

CelebBabyLover, my husband is “the III.” I’m pretty sure he never knew before that his name is unacceptable. I’ll be sure to tell him. LOL! Opinions are like, um, a.., um, noses…everybody’s got one, but at the end of the day, people can name their children what they want and call their grandparents what they want. They are the ones making their own memories.

Cheryl, LOL! I love your comment. SO true! I have two beautiful little granddaughters and I am “Grammy” to them. I love that nickname and I’m proud to be their “Grammy!”

I’m really hoping the baby is a girl…So there’s no chance it will be named Peter Lewis Kingston Wentz the 4th. I’m okay with Juniors (although they’re not my cup of tea either), but 4ths? That’s a little excessive in my book!

If you want to carry on your name, give it to your child as a middle name! Pete has said their almost sure the baby is a boy, but then he retracted it, and most recently he said they’re having a delivery surprise, so who knows!

Anyway, I also see nothing wrong with Joe wanting to be called “Papa Joe”. When I was a kid, I went through a phase where I called both of my grandfathers “Papa __________ (their first name went where the blank is, obviously!)”!

As for being too young to be a grandfather…I’m guessing he said that jokingly (i.e., more in the sense of “I can’t believe I’m that old already!” or “Gosh that makes me feel old!”).

Crystal, I’m with you! I will be utterly and completely shocked if this baby is a girl! There are too many comments that have been made that point to it being a boy.

Other than that, I’ve never liked Joe Simpson. There’s just something about him that rubs me the wrong way although I see nothing wrong with him wanting to be called Papa Joe.

^and then retracted it hours later.

Actually Pete has already said that their almost positive it’s a boy.

They have a lot of Joe’s in their life’s, so they could call their baby Joe after Papa Joe or Joe Trohman (Pete’s friend and band mate) and even Joe Biden, who is a good friend of the Wentz family.
Cannot wait for this little one. I keep hoping that as soon as I come on here I’ll see ‘Ashlee and Pete welcome —-’
