Grandparent Withdrawal

Lennon is going through a little withdrawal today after a fun-filled weekend with his grandparents. He absolutely lights up when any of his grandparents are around and this weekend was no different. He sure is loved and we are really thankful for the support we get from both sides of the family.
A perfect example of the love of a grandparent; on Saturday we decided to head to the ice cream shop in the afternoon. Dave and I took a longer route and ran while Dave’s parents took Lennon in the stroller. Dave and I beat the walkers so we hung out outside and waited for a few minutes. A few minutes turned into 15 minutes, and then 15 turned into a half hour. We peeked our heads around the corner, but didn’t see any sign of Mary Jo, Wyon and Lennon. After 45 minutes we started to get a little worried. In my mind I knew all was okay, but I wondered if they had an emergency diaper issue or something of the sort. After an hour Dave decided to go out looking for them while I waited at the ice cream shop. Not more than a minute later I could see the whole crew trekking down the sidewalk. Was there a soiled diaper issue, or worse, some type of accident? Nope. The grandparents had just let Lennon walk and explore. The little stinker walked almost the whole route while stopping whenever he wanted to check out such things as kittens, garage doors that might have a lawn mower behind them and anything else his little heart desired. He was very pleased with all of his adventures when he arrived at the ice cream shop. It was really sweet.
 

Have a great week!

    Funny about the walk...Just got all caught up in exploring with Grandpa and Grandma. I can just seem him loving it! and taking advantage of the situation ;). And Grandpa and Grandma soaking every minute of it up.
