Story Time with All My Friends



Olivia loves reading books with Grandpa Andy (or anybody that will read) but this particular time was a classic stall for nap time.   I told her we would read two stories then naptime.  She insisted on getting out every friend she could find (one at a time) and lining them all up for story time.  Even "Horsey names Zebra" got to sit on Grandpa's shoulder.

Edited to add: I just noticed the "tell-tale" oreo cookie crumbs around her mouth... ooops!   Maybe chocolate cookies for lunch gave her too much energy to need a nap :o)

this is soooo adorable, you two look like the best of grandparents. My mother is a "Grammy" to my niece, I adore that name....God Bless You and most of all cherish the moments with your granddaughter, time goes so fast. My niece is now going on 14, wow I remember when she was born...have a wonderful week!

What a wonderful Grammy you are! My grandma always made me eat a bowl of cereal for breakfast (per my mom's orders). It was a VERY small bowl of cereal, then I could choose to have a slice of angel food cake or a small scoop of chocolate ice cream for breakfast dessert :) This was served to me on a silver tray, because I was propped up on a chair and ottoman watching Sesame Street or the Flintstones. Good times.

So cute. My little two year old is sitting on my lap and wants to know if she can play with that girl (o:
Mine all love to be read to. My seven year old is now a great reader and often takes over... so funny.

Very cute! She has lots of friends. Katie loves to hold a dolly or an animal right up to her cheek. But Emma will push it away if you offer her one. They are so different in some ways.

And they don't like naps any more! I put them down and they "visit" for about an hour. Then if they haven't fallen asleep by then, they begin to cry - or at least one of them cries while the other miraculously sleeps.
