Terrible Twos!!! Bye Bye Grandpa Jim!!

Grandpa Jim and Me at our first Christmas.

Grandpa Jim and Me being fish!

Finally got more hair than Grandpa Jim.

Grandpa Jim and Me share a moment over a bottle.

My last picture of Granpa Jim (taken at my 2nd birthday party--Why didn't Mommy take a better picture??)

I now understand why they call it "Terrible Twos!" My "two" got off to a horrible start--I lost my Grandpa Jim last Monday night!! I knew something was terribly wrong when Mommy and Daddy woke me up in the middle of the night, took my "blanky" and "pilly" (pillow) to take me to Uncle Fester's and Aunt Patty. I tried to make the best of the situation by entertaining Uncle Fester, Aunt Patty and My Jessica. Uncle Fester said that Aunt Patty and I had a snore fest and that I am a bed hog. Dude---Am Not!!!

Aunt Patty took me to work with her that morning and then she took me to the Baby Penitentiary! Guess what, Aunt Patty picked me up and got me a happy meal!!! Is she the best or what?? Mommy came back home Tuesday night and took me to Grandma Dale's so I could be reunited with Daddy and be there for Grandma Dale. Call me crazy, but I think Uncle Fester was actually ready for me to go!! He looked a little worn out by the time Mommy got there.

I am happy to report that I was a very good boy the whole way there. Mommy was worried about venturing off in the dark with me that far. I may be two but I am not dumb. I knew that I was expected to be the man of the car and not cause any problems for Mommy!! Aunt Terri, Uncle Tom, Jake and Brooke were there too! I have to admit that I cheated on Jessica....I loved playing with Brooke and copying everything she did. Sorry Jessica...I needed a chick fix. Anyways, I got to see all kinds of people at Grandma's house.

Thursday we all said bye-bye to Grandpa Jim. Uncle Fester and Aunt Patty came all the way to sit with me in the church so I didn't cause a huge disturbance. I got to see Grandpa Len and Granny Bev (I think she may still be crying), Uncle Carl, Aunt Kay, Uncle Jerry and Auntie Norma and a host of other people and family members. I had so many of my favorite people around I didn't know what to do! I am happy to report that I was very well behaved!! Okay, except for spitting out the macaroni and cheese in the church dining hall! What can I say...it wasn't very good.

Anyway, I am going to miss my Grandpa Jim. I am glad that I didn't get banned from the services because I got to say bye bye to Grandpa Jim. I didn't know Grandpa Jim for very long but I know I am going to miss my Grandpa Jim because he was one of the bestest Grandpas ever.
