There was candy and music. #GS5 was dancing, and I'm sure #GS4 was also. #GS3 is a little more reserved about song and dance. I'm already planning to put him in music and dance classes to help him get over that. -

They should all be enjoying their stuff by Saturday.
Also shipped non-birthday gifts to #A1, #GS3, #GS4. -

There’s now a telescope, so even though 4 1/2 year old #GS3 is really too young for it, they can occasionally have an evening observation. He likes space, stars and planets, the moon, and weather. I asked whether 2 1/2 year old #GS4 has started expressing his own preferences yet. The answer is he currently likes what his older brother likes, but he’s less emotionally invested in those topics.
The exception is TV. GS3 likes “Bluey” and GS4 only likes “Octonauts”. And colors: GS3 likes blue and GS4 likes red. #GS5, at age 1 hasn’t shown any preference yet, but I’ve been looking for clothing in green for now. -

He was more interested in toy people than a toy truck anyway. -

No feet covers because two of the three are taller and thinner than most kids their ages. -

I'm thinking #GS3, #GS4, #GS5 need to listen to this with grandpa for a while.
(I could do this. I once listened to Safety Dance almost exclusively for about six months. Similar to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrgmXuikWkA ) -

His speech is growing nicely. For a while, I couldn't see any changes, but recently, he's having conversations.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

The older boys are trying choose a tiny pumpkin to put on the porch. My daughter in law usually picks a medium size pumpkin to turn into pie.
This is a major event on the family calendar, but it seems early this year.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

As far as I’m aware, #A-2 and #A-3 are leaving their hair in its natural color. As are #GS-3, #GS-4, #GS-5.
That’s ages 1-16.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

He still wobbles from side to side and his lower leg goes out sideways to balance the wobbling, but he’s pretty focused when he runs now. Daughter-in-law sent slow motion video and he looks like he’s competing in a track meet. In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

We talked about their books that I'm reading for them. Also about their outing yesterday ... the family went for a drive ... #sonTwo didn't say that they stopped anywhere, either. Usually, such trips end up with a stop at a city park if the weather is okay. In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

The other dogs and cats don't qualify, I guess.
Even if the style didn't give it away, I would know who drew this because of which dog was chosen. #GS4 has a different favorite dog. In fact, he used to call all dogs by that dog's name.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

Likely, the grandsons had something to tell me.
I also have something to tell the 2 year old #GS4. I bought the newest installment of his favorite book series ("I need a new butt") and will be sending it whenever the next shipment goes out.)
Oh, and they sent a picture of my bedroom there. All the spare baby stuff is cleared out, so it looks like a regular bedroom.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

Daughter-in-law: Why do you need a new butt?
Grandson: talk Grandpa!
(Background: there is a series of three books about "I need a new butt" ... I bought two of the three and I read those books with them when I was there.)In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

He's still got a year before he starts school, but the social interaction should be beneficial.
I had wondered how his 2 year old brother ( #GS4 ) would react to the 4 year old going somewhere fun without him, but he seems to be fine with it.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

Also, the four year old has not enrolled in preschool, so he'll be participating in socialization events through the local parks and recreation district.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

He knows that Arlene was near #FL, where his other grandparents live. He had not seen that Arlene broke apart, so he was concerned about them.
#GS4 didn’t say a lot. He told me that some of his berries yesterday were “greenberries”, not blueberries.
#GS5 looked grumpy. Then he quickly smiled twice at me, then returned to his grumpy look.
I don’t have budget for it right now, but the kids need hats with big floppy brims, sunglasses, and sunscreen.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -
