There is this kid. His name is Ryan. He is getting close to three years old and like all of my grandchildren, he melts my heart.
He is smart as hell. Hilarious. And a Rocker.
And.... I think he wants a baby sister or brother pretty bad.
I noticed at Easter, how affectionate he was with his baby cousin, Jonah.
Excuse me while I melt.
Is this the sweetest thing?
Or maybe this is. I can't decide.
We have three grandsons who live very close to us. It is such a joy to be with them.
The little cherub of a girl is Isabel, the boy's cousin.
Check out Ryan...still hugging.
So I picked Ryan up on Monday after Easter to spend the night. I didn't have a plan and was thinking how I don't have that many toys at the house so I asked Ryan if he'd help me pick up a few toys and he could pick out a whatever he wanted for himself that we could keep at our house.
I didn't have much trouble convincing him.
We played in the Toys R Us store for at least an hour.
First he picked out a basketball goal and ball that looked pretty cool. So we added that to our basket.
We bought marbles, sidewalk chalk and a few other things.
As we rolled down an isle of motion sensor activated baby dolls, his face just lit up and I could see that he had found what he wanted.
He got inside the basket with the baby doll that giggled and cooed and jumped up and down. He loved it. Her name is Pookey Baby.
I have no problem with this.
He only put her down for cupcakes.
He eats cupcakes topless and that is a good idea.
Grandchildren are just so incredibly awesome. They are so "in the moment". Its good to be around them because they remind you of what is important. And they remind you how to be almost 3 again.
Go ahead, eat a cupcake face first.
Dive right into that icing and work your way down.
I will never eat a cupcake any other way.
: )
CA125 showed an increase this month.
Its up to 240 from 160 and they will start me back on chemo at about 350 or so.
And so it goes.
