Family Time

Amy had to go back to work this week and she and Jesse asked if I would watch Lukas the first couple of days......hmmmmmm let me think!!?? He was such a good little fella for his grandma. He had a little case of the snuffles, but was a trooper. He barely even complained.

Here are a couple of pictures with buttons (as Sami calls video clips) for you to see. I know I shouldn't say this because I know he wasn't feeling well, but he sure made me chuckle when he was sleeping.

I was sorting some things in the basement and found something I had forgotten I kept. When Jesse was a little tike he carried this little grey doggy everywhere. It was is surprisingly good shape and after 3 baths I took it to Lukas. Jesse remembered and was surprised. Neither of us could remember what he called him, but I am pretty sure it was just gowggy(doggy).

Again, I channeled my inner Ansel Adams ( did he do non-nature shots?) and took this one in black and white also.

While I was there alone with Lukas, he was well guarded by his real life doggy, Schaffer. He would lay right next to the couch and put his nose up next to Lukas to keep an eye on him!!

And again when he was sleeping in his swing. For the first couple of hours whenever Lukas would stir a little Schaffer would come over and check things out. Just after I took this picture he did give Lukas a real big lick. He slept right through it. I guess Schaffer started to trust me after that and whenever Lukas got a little fussy Schaf slept through it.

Schaffer and his little buddy and play toy Otto. They enjoy wrestling together.

Amy was very happy to be home with her little man. While she was catching up with Lukas, Leo came for a visit. It was really cute because soon after this Kitty came by and was sitting on Amy's lap also. It was a really cute picture, but by then Lukas was hungry and I didn't think Amy would have appreciated me taking that picture!

So this was the first great couple of days back from our weekend. I had such a wonderful time being grandma.

We heard the owls last night in the woods and I got a video of the dark sky's and the sounds of the owls. I will search through the April owl pics and post a update maybe tomorrow. For now I am out!!
