All is quiet with the world relatively
Filed Under grand kids | 3 Comments
Okay, so rather than dispensing dollar bills I have found another way to not just keep the grandkids entertained , but the kids and the wife too.
High School Musical II is on and they are all singing and dancing away downstairs, Gage is sitting there swaying side-to-side and rocking his head to the music, Jade is dancing away with her Mom. If Aurianna and Alec pop over they’re all be doing synchronized dancing and singing. They knows these movies inside out and have the words to the songs down pat.
More fun than finding soggy dollar bills all over the floor, Gage eats them if you don’t get them off him quick.

Grandpa suckered
Filed Under grand kids | 6 Comments
The kids and grandkids are here, or some of them are at least. Jade and her 14 month old brother Gage were using the couch as a trampoline when I came in. Jade hugged me and told me she loved me, Gage just hid his face and cried. I tried all manner of stuff to get him to stop, he did briefly for a cookie then started again.
He just wasn’t having grandpa in his face, that is, until I opened my wallet and was counting some money, then he stopped. He reached over grabbed a dollar bill, gave a big smile and was all happy and grandpa was the best in the world.
14 months old and he suckered me for a buck!

The Force is without you grandpa!
Filed Under grand kids | 5 Comments
Sitting at the daughter’s house watching her two kids (same day as the licking the cookie thing), Alec says, “Grandpa want to play Star Wars?”
I said yes, and he and his sister went into their bedrooms, Aurianna came out with two plastic light sabers, a push of a button and a flick of the wrist and the plastic “blade” part extended out. She and I had blue light sabers, then Alec strides out with a light saber clipped onto each pocket. He pulls them off and flicks them open, one is red the other green.
Then the assault began! Both started attacking me, whacking me hard with the light sabers, I thrust and parried and blocked their blows and tapped their arms and legs, “There goes another limb, bwhahahaha.”
Of course, I was told light sabers cannot cut through skin. What? Yes they can, then they suddenly had metal suits on and of course, “Grandpa, they won’t cut through metal.”
I couldn’t get them to realize light sabers can cut through anything.
But I had to stop the game because grandpa was close to ending up covered in bruises and I could see something in their Mom’s house getting broken.
Dejected they took the light sabers away, then Alec comes out and asks if I want to play pirates, “Okay,” I said not thinking.
I hear a loud “Yarrrrrr,” and they both jump out twirling plastic pirate swords and attack.
I ducked and covered!

It’s got my germs on it!
Filed Under grand kids | 9 Comments
I was over at the daughter’s place baby sitting two of the grand kids, they had cookies and Aurianna sat hers down. She went into the kitchen, her brother Alec picked up her cookies, “They are your sisters,” I told him.
He walked into the kitchen and I heard him say, “Here’s your cookies sis, I licked them they have my germs on them.”
He came back out grinning while stuffing cookies in his mouth as his sister told him he could have them.
Manipulative little git!

Grandkid numba nine
Filed Under grand kids | 4 Comments
Our son told us that his girlfriend went in to have an IUD fitted and was told it couldn’t be done as she was pregnant. This will be their third kid and our ninth grand baby!
She asked me what sex the baby is, all the kids do this, so far I tend to be right in guessing the sex. They think it is some sort of special gift. Our youngest daughter was shaking her head and I looked her and said “Number ten!”
She swore and said “Nooooo!” the asked me what sex I thought it was. I am guessing she may be next pretty soon.
The son made an appointment to have a vasectomy, I offered to do it with two house bricks but he didn’t seem that keen to take me up on the offer.

Grandma is hot
Filed Under grand kids, wife | 6 Comments
Carolyn had her long hair cut quite short for a change, we went around to the daughter’s place.
As soon as Alec, one of our grandkids, came running out to see us he stopped dead in his tracks. He looks up at grandma, curls his bottom lip and puts his hand on his chin and contemplates grandma’s new hair do. He then walks around to her other aside and adopts the same pose.
He walks back again to the first side and checks grandma out, then he checks the back then stand in front looking with that pose. He then puts his hands on his hips and says;
“Grandma you’re hot,” then he runs off back into his room.
I have to agree with the little tyke though, grandma is hot.

The girls at play
Filed Under grand kids | 4 Comments
The daughter came over to check her email, we got her a PC for Christmas but she hasn’t gotten the Internet yet. Aurianna, our grand daughter wanted to play with “grandpa’s computer”, so she opened Word and started typing and practicing her spelling.
She has fun and gets some practice in. She finds it amusing that there are three screens with different things on them. I have Assault On Precinct 13 paused on one screen.
