Baby Rock Star

When our children are young we all have hopes and aspirations as to their eventual place in life. Now that my grown children are well on their paths, I have dreams for the grandkids. Dreams that include them being able to afford to take care of the grandparents. So here's hoping...

... and just in case the drumming thing don't work out, here is backup plan #2...

I feel my future is secure.

Halloween 2009 - Part Troix (I think?)

This year Offspring #1 did his own Halloween makeup. He learned from the best and did a right frightful job of it.

Here is a closeup of the nasty nails that turned him into a Zombie.

And who do you suppose is this lovely frightened zombie lass?

Halloween 2009 - Part Duex

This photo was taken on October 31, 2004. This is my beloved Grandson #1. He is the light of my life and I miss him dearly. The funny thing about this photo is coming up next...


No, this is not Grandson #1. It is Grandson #3! This photo was taken on October 31, 2009. I can't believe my eyes, the spitting image of his big brother.

This photo is of the most handsomest boy in the entire world, Grandson #1 today. He is the most beautiful child. Just look at this little angel face.

Grandson #1 is a Star Wars fan so we sent him a "Boba Fett" costume for Halloween. He is definately the most handsome Boba Fett on the planet.

He is pretty scary here.

I really enjoyed seeing photos of my Grandsons that live far away. I can just tell that Grandson #3 is just a little dress up doll for his mommy. Here he is in his big brothers Pumpkin Halloween costume.

Here he is as a ferocious tiger baby.

Here he would really scare you if only he could move.

One more installment to come of the Halloween 2009 and Offspring #1... spoooooooky.

Halloween 2009

It's Halloween and nothing is better than going to the Mall with a little monkey boy! He only got a short nap before the festivities and was a little apprehensive about all the commotion. He saw the camera and knew just what to do, this is familiar territory. Smile and wave, monkey boy!

Monkey boy is 15 months old and it is essentially his first Halloween. Last year didn't really count because he was only 3 months old and his Mom had him wrapped like a tootsie roll. He didn't even eat candy.

Here is another first Halloween. This is Grandson #1 in 2004. He was 5 months old and just as curious as to who that crazy clown man was that was carrying him through the mall.

This picture is for Grandson #1 who is crazy for Star Wars. Grandpa Extremo met a stormtrooper at the mall! Isn't that crazy!

This is monkey boy in his monkey wagon. Once he got a sucker it was all over. He didn't care what else was going on. That sucker was his entire universe.

And monkey boy was happy.
