Play Date in the Park…
My youngest son-in-law was competing in a triathlon that would last for most of the day.
This was definitely, no place for young babies to be, with the roaring heat upon us.
So, this gave Grammie her “First Date” with the little man! All alone…just the two of us! Be still my heart!!!!
I decided, our first date would be at the local playground…something we would both enjoy.
He met new friends immediately! Everybody wanted to be around him…he was like a magnet.
Did you notice his shirt? I bought it in Seattle when I was at the Space Needle…recognize it?
He found a way to get away from the camera…run under the tunnel! Grammie can’t fit through here.
Okay, maybe this wasn’t just going to be a date for me and him only…smile! The girls loved him and I think it was very mutual.
After he played and played on the playground…we decided it was time to leave.
On the way home, we went to McDonald’s drive-through and bought a dipped ice cream cone to finish the afternoon.
By the time he licked the last drop, sitting in his car seat…his little eyelids closed and that was the end of our first date.
“Playland”
Climbing high, Climbing low,
I’m having so much fun,
I don’t want to go!

Cute, cute, cute!
So sweet for Grammie and Little Man! Sounds like a fun date. He is too precious, and I can see why he is such a lady magnet!
Oh, he is so cute in that hat!
Again, such beautiful images! What a fun day!! He is precious… As are the other children.
So cute and so fun! I love little bucket hats on toddlers!
Your images are fabulous and I love his little outfit – so stylin’! I agree that there’s little better than capturing kids you love at play at the park!
What a precious, precious first date. Adorable.
Love the continuation of the fun with your grandson, Laurie! Looked like a beautiful day for a play-date! If I haven’t said it before, he is absolutely adorable!! So how did your son-in-law do in the triathlon?
Deborah, my son-in-law was able to finish the triathlon and beat his time of last year, so he was pretty happy. Oh to be young again☺
Congrats to your son, and yes, I’m hearing you about being young again!! I’ve always wanted to run in a marathon, but now, no way! I am working up to walking a few miles a day, though, so maybe I’ll walk that marathon someday! 🙂
That must have been the best date ever Laurie! He is so adorable and the shots are great! He is such a cutie! 😀 *hugs*
Love the hat shots, such beautiful eyes and such sharo photos!
Laurie – I’m sure he will have plenty of dates in the future!!!!
What a special treat to have such a fun day with your grandson….He is beautiful and your shots a treasure….
Love his hat! The picture of him looking back over his shoulder needs to be framed and put on the wall or a desk some where.
I laughed at my reaction at your comment, it had me scrambling to go see which photo you were talking about to frame. LOL! Thank you.
I am sorry, I meant the second picture from the top.
What a lovely date! Very sweet!
Wil, ABCW Team
Totally delightful.
I especially like the little droplet on his lip.
You have one cutie patootie there, Grandma.
I love the expressions you capture on little man’s face. That little blonde-haired cutie seems to like them as well. 🙂
Those girls couldn’t help themselves – handsome and a snappy dresser. 🙂
It’s so cute! Really you had a nice day with your grandson! Lovely pics!
Cheers,
Rafael
Oh this is adorable, Laurie! You made me miss my gandma all of a sudden.

Gammie time is priceless 🙂
He’s quite DASHING!

What a little cuties! Lovely day. Lovely pics.
Hello Laurie!
He is just so adorable! You made me smile and think of my grandsons… they are 3 and 7. I’m having them this Saturday and I love every minute of that 1 on 1 time.
Nite from Oz. Hugs Paula xxx
It is always so nice to see another grandma here and hear about the love of their grandchildren too…thanks for visiting today.
What a little knock-out, and such a fashion statement! It’s a neat idea, the concrete wall with the alphabet at the playground. I haven’t seen that before, mind you I haven’t been to a playground in an awful long time. My favourite was always the merry-go-round but apparently it’s been removed for safety reasons.
Very sweet!
These are the cutest pictures!
