Bein' A Grammy

Last Wednesday was Ann and Eric's anniversary (15!!) and I got to watch the boys while they went out to dinner.  Dan was out of town for the week, so I asked if it would be okay if they brought the boys over here since I'm a world class chicken heart when Dan is out of town and go NOWHERE after seven.  I know, how silly of me. But that's the way it is.  :-)

We had our usual gourmet meal of chicken nuggets (the Disney ones from Costco), tater tots, and applesauce. Hey, it was boys' night out at Grammy's and nutrition is out the window.  They also had ice cream cones.

I managed to capture a couple of pictures of the boys, and then Cameron grabbed the camera while I was on the phone and snapped a couple of me and Daniel.  I'm so thankful for computers and cropping because one was so perfect of Daniel, but not so perfect of me.

So here are Cameron and Daniel:


Keaton, playing on the Webkinz site:


And the cropped picture of Daniel:


It was a fun night and I loved every moment.  Well, except when we couldn't get the pak 'n play to set up so Daniel could go to bed, but then a miracle happened and we got it to work!

    Oh -- the pictures are just beyond cute! Especially the one of Daniel with the big round brown eyes. (We can say that because he's the little one. Everyone enjoys the little one -- even the big ones!)

    Oh -- the big ones are handsome -- that's it -- handsome! And they are, too!

    I think twice about evening outings and such when Mike is gone, but the few times I've tried it, nothing bad happened -- honest!

    Anner--you're welcome! You know I love it. :-)

    Kathy, thanks for liking my little men. They are so fun to have over. And I *know* that the odds of anything happening when Dan's gone are about a gazillion to one, but trying telling that to my mind 'long about one in the morning... Waaay too much imagination.

    I have never heard, "chicken heart" before. When I got to the second paragraph I thought maybe it meant that you love chicken...you know, I *heart* chicken nuggets. Ha ha! I get it now, though. Looks like you had a lovely evening.

    Hallie, I must be showing my age! It's probably a term from the (gasp!) sixties. :-) And I'm afraid I've always been a chicken heart in the dark, even when I'm supposed to be the "big person in charge". Thankfully he's home for quite a while now. :-)
