Snuggle Bunny

Rob is out of town this week so it's just me, the dogs, and Landon Joe. I picked him up from Nana's last evening in the dark! I hate that it's dark by the time I get to him. It really puts a damper on our evening walks. However, last night we went to get the mail when we got home. He'd taken his shoes and socks off on the ride home so I just put his rain boots on. They are a bit too big but he likes to wear them. He wanted to walk up the street so even though it was dark we did. He found the puddles along the sides of the street and really liked splashing through them. We walked up and down the street in front of our house for a good ten minutes, splashing in the puddles. He cried when I finally picked him up to go back inside! His pant legs were wet and he wanted me to take them off! He ran around in his diaper! Cute boy.

So, we had dinner and played until it was time for the bedtime routine. I gave him a bath. He has found it's not so bad to have water running over his face as long as he's the one who splashed it there! He cried again when it was time to get out. He loves bath time which is funny because he used to hate it, crying because it was time for a bath! He sat on my lap in his Redskins bean bag chair and drank his bottle. He then fell asleep snuggled up in my lap clutching his bunny and blanket. He rarely falls asleep in my lap and I so enjoyed just holding my baby while he snoozed. I sat there until my butt was asleep and my arms hurts! Maybe the same will happen tonight. I sang "opera" to wake him up this morning. He woke up laughing at me (many of you know that I can't carry a tune in a bucket much less sing opera)! He's always so happy! I can't wait to see him this evening.

I sure do miss my little pal. But.... His Mom takes real good care of him and is the best Mom in the world. Landon Joe is one of my two favorite guys. But then again Grandpa's are quite partial when it comes to Grandsons. Grammie also says that her favorite guys are the Grandsons too.
