Andrew Is getting Smarter than Grampa

Grampa was reading Where Is Spot? to the boys.  There are only a minimum number of words on a page and they're in large print.  As Grampa turned to the final page with the publisher's information in very small print, Andrew asked what it said.  Grampa hesitated and then responded, "The End."  Andrew looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Then what's the 'Puh' (P) for"  Foiled, Grampa read the publisher's information to Andrew. Andrew, at last satisfied, smiled and nodded.


I came up with the idea that the boys might enjoy riding their vehicles in the garage on inclement weather days.  I removed the cars and had Grampa assist in carrying the hammock our of the garage, to the backyard.  By the time we returned the garage seemed eerily quiet.  When we entered, we realized the boys were GONE!.  The two of us took off in haste for the front of the house.  We found them waiting for us.  Our hearts returned to a steady beat.


On your mark, get set...

You have to take life seriously.


Just kidding.


Keep watching.  I have something important to show you.


You need to learn boys love their toys.


Welcome to Gramma's Gentlemen's Club.


Daddy, you're my "guitar hero."

The boys celebrate their third birthday and Grampa celebrates still being alive.
