My Papa and Grandma B

Jesse's like his Mama. He LOVES visitors! :) Our latest visitors were Jesse's Papa and Grandma B from Bartlesville. Jesse enjoyed having Grandpa around to read to him before he went to bed, and Grandma tried spoiling this boy to sleep. :)

One of Jesse's favorite books is 'Down By The Station'. Daddy's the best at reading it, because he makes realistic 'beeping', 'chuff-chuffing', 'broom-brooming', and 'nee-noor, nee-noor' sounds. When it was Jesse's bedtime, his grandpa offerred to read to him. I brought out 'Down By The Station', and Papa was such a good sport that he sang and did good sounds! :) What a good grandpa! :)

'You're a good reader, Papa!'

Jesse wore his favorite shirt while his Papa and Grandma were here. They got this for Jesse when he was a newborn. He saw that his Papa had a light orange shirt on, so he wanted to try to match.

Almost matching! Both have green horsies. :)

Jesse has been great about napping for a long time now. We just take him to his room, give him his lovey and pacie, and lay him down. Sometimes we'll hear him kicking (surpirse!) on his matress for a while before he goes to sleep. Sometimes he'll 'talk' himself to sleep with quiet little 'mmm...mmmm...mmmm' sounds. But lately, sometimes he'll decide he doesn't want to nap. He did that some while his grandparents were visiting. He didn't want to miss out on any of the fun. He's a smart boy. He knew he could catch up once they left. :) So, Grandma knew he was sleepy and helped him to to sleep. He usually doesn't let me rock him. He looks all around and pushes away from and arches his back. I'm just not as good a 'rocker' as Grandma. :)

Grandma rocked the boy to sleep. Aren't they SOOOO sweet when they're asleep?!

Then, Grandma helped put the boy down for the night. It's fun having extra hands around! Thanks for coming, Grandma and Papa!! Come again soon!! :) We all love you very much.


Ready for bedtime in his sleepsack, with his pacie, and his lovey. 'Let's go cuddle in my room, Grandma!'
