Whoops!

Check the finger. Totally unintentional on Thad's or his Mom's part... I hope!

Nice day with the kids

I had lunch with Allison, Chris and Thad today. After lunch, Allison was playing with Thad. Every time she made a "raspberries" sound, he would duplicate it, making bubbles and laughing... Lots of fun! This is a time-lapse series, of sorts.

I realize I am experiencing something that grandparents have experienced since time began, so it's nothing new I've discovered, but what a thrill to watch my little girl with her little boy! And it's also a thrill to know that Allison and Chris and Thad have such a wonderful life ahead of them!

Happy boy!

Thad, June 6. Chris took this of Thad today.

Visit with the kids

We got to visit with the kids and Thad on Saturday. Great time! Thad is growing so fast! He rolled over on his own on Friday. Here are a few pictures from our visit.

Garden again

Debbie took this of me at the garden. I figured I'd better post it, since she was a good sport enough to let me post hers.
