He really loves the attention! The evening was filled with Legos (all to himself), games, books, and helping Poppa get the new fish tank ready for a trip to the fish store tomorrow!! The boys have always enjoyed our aquarium...and it's been on a 6 month rest and clean-up. Time for new!
Then the favorite place to sleep...the chairbed with animal sheets! We have a large chair and a half in our bedroom that when paired with the huge ottoman becomes a wonderful childsize bed. Carl and Gus think this is the most special place in the world to sleep. We talk and say goodnight before they doze off...and they love to climb in bed with us in the morning.
Saturday starts the tagteam part... Gus and I spend the day doing fun stuff...and by afternoon, Poppa picks up Carl and they head for the Twins baseball game. Taking the train down to the MetroDome is fun, and meeting the Bakers for the game is exciting,too. Gus and I go buy the new fish and have pizza for supper. Their mommy and daddy have a wonderful easy dinner out with only Louise. ("whoever said taking an almost one year old out for dinner was tough?...this is the best!") They came to bring Gus home, and he didn't want to go!! A Gramma's secret smile! Bye Gus...we'll have another sleepover soon!Carl and Poppa arrived home, excited from the game. We settled into reading and talking. Carl had his new Lego Magazine, so we were all engrossed in discussing the latest in the Lego World. My how he's grown up!
Carl loves to sleep in the animal chairbed, too. And morning is just as sweet with him! It's scrambled eggs, english muffins, fruit and a great appetite for Carl. Lots of exciting things to play with...the legos of course, and a puzzle or two. Where does the time go? We didn't even get any photos of Carl's time here...and it's time to go home!! He's off to the May Day Parade with his family. Wow!! What a busy weekend!!
