My Crazy Grandson

So, 5:oo AM (!) this morning this is what tiptoes in my bedroom to wake me up "What are we doing today Grandma?" Don't know why he thought the goggles might play a big part in our plans but he was definitely ready for anything.

Well, maybe not this! First order of business after breakfast - clean the last bird nest off the decorative vines above the window. These little birds were sure cute, but left an awful lot of mess behind. J wasn't quite sure what to do when I told him to take the nest off so he could put it in the garbage. Ewwwww!

Then we went to pick up branches where Kaytee had been doing her tree trimming. Jackson loved sitting on the bench because it was "like a forest!"

Then this afternoon we went over to the church for a kid's Bike Rodeo. J sat and watched for a while to scope it all out.

Then he had to carefully adjust the wheels on his scooter to get them just right. He really wanted and needed to wear a helmet - this one was a "tad" big because it used to be Kaytee's. We also had to assure him that the blue meant it was a "boy" helmet and not a "girl" one.

Then he was off and riding (scooting?). He had so much fun and was so proud of how fast he could go.

Then we had a "kids choice" ward dinner outside at the pavilion. I put one of everything I thought J would eat on his plate and here he is showing off his pizza. Then he ate most of the spaghetti. Then the cookie. We brought the sandwiches home to eat tomorrow.

He made lots of new friends and was so excited to have the big grassy area behind the church to run around in. I think in this picture Jackson had just been tagged by Lacy (in the dress) and he is off and running to get someone else. Lacy is coming over to play tomorrow. Jackson is very excited!


Then back home for a little relaxin' Just loving his own little computer to play games on. Looks like one tired boy - we are off to bed and ready for another adventure tomorrow. Hopefully it won't start quite so early!
