Friday Night was K-man Night!

How was your weekend?  Most of ours was occupied with me alternating between my best Edith Ann interpretation or Lauren Bacall voice and Dr. G pumping Vitamin C down me.

BUT!  Friday night?  Friday night made our weekend!  We got to spend it with this handsome fellow!
Some stories seem to just be told best with pictures and captions.  For example...this one I captioned as "Too cute to eat."

Or we have...
Deep conversation.

A common occurrence with 2-and-1/2 year olds.

What do you think of that Grandpa?

Sometimes Grandpas aren't sure what else to say except, "Shall we pray?"

After eating, we HAD to go to the play area!  K-man talked a LOT about the car in the play area, but it was up high, at the end of a tube.  K-man climbed up to the top, but we couldn't quite conquer the tube or the car.  But that's ok.  He's only 2-and-1/2 after all.  He doesn't have to conquer the car just yet.  Some things can easily wait until you're 3-and-1/2.

I can spin this fast, Grandpa!

Let's see what's over here, Grandpa!

Let's be turtles, Grandpa!

Then we went to Toys R Us...(you'll just have to turn that R around in your own mind...I don't have a backwards R key on my laptop.  Sorry.)

I will help you plan for Christmas, Grandpa!

Making new friends over Thomas. Thomas is good for that.

Me and my new friend could play for hours and hours!

Grandpa can play for hours and hours, too!

Over the bridge....I think I can, I think I can.  I think I can...

But then it was time to head back to the hotel for bedtime, but not before about 10 - 15 minutes of playtime over the only toy that K-man said, "I take this home" over.  
Like that, Grandpa?  Yes, like this, little man.

K-man was a very good boy.  We set a timer for when bedtime play would be over, and he helped to put the toys away without fussing and then climbed into bed.  We read two books, and said prayers, and then Grandpa told 3 more stories before K-man told a story about a fire truck!  I think we did say that it was time for sleep and no more stories, but he didn't fuss about that.  He simply closed his eyes and went straight to sleep.

And that makes the end of our story time.  Good night!
