Raising Grampy- Chapter 12

Hi everyone! It’s me, Liam, just quarantining with Grampy. Ha! I learned that new word. I have no idea what it means but I learned it.

I’m just hanging out, teaching the ole guy some baby stuff and helping to edit the blog.

Grampy says someday I’ll be able to brag to my future cousins that I spent the Corona Virus with him. Again, I have no idea what this means but he seems to be impressed.

I only know that we haven’t gone out to any stores or restaurants lately. I think mommy did sneak out to Target the other day but she left me to watch Grampy. She was going through Target withdrawal.

The only time I go out is to my Uncle Dougie’s house. That’s where Grampy is staying. We play with toys.

I bring mine because Grampy doesn’t have any. Poor guy. I bring him a book for Storytime too.

Can you believe that his books don’t have any pictures?!!! How can that be any fun?!! It’s a good thing he has me.

I’m trying some new foods! I’m not sure about peas or sweet potatoes but mommy did give me some toast!

It was pretty good. And my puppy, Yoda, really enjoyed clean-up.

We stay in the house a lot. We do go for a walk every day and I’ve noticed more people seem to be out walking. Grampy is always talking to me on our walks, telling me about the ducks that go “quack” and the geese that go “honk.” I have a weird feeling he’s going to quiz me on this stuff so I try to pay attention, until I don’t. I have a busy nap schedule.

We FaceTime with the family a lot. I think Grampy misses Grammy. I miss her too because she gives nice hugs.

The other night my Uncle Matt was on the Instagram thing playing some music.

I like to listen to him. He sings really good. He uses his middle name, Hunter, for his singing. My middle name is Michael. I don’t know why we have extra names. I guess if you forget one you can use the other one. Unless I become a singer like my Uncle. Now should I call him Uncle Matt or Uncle Hunter? I guess he’s Uncle Hunter when he sings.

The other day he called the FaceTime/Portal thing and played my favorite song.

So that’s about it for this week. We’re just spending time with each other and doing chores.

Have a good week! Grampy says we’re going to celebrate Easter this weekend. I’ve never been to an Easter so I’ll let you know what it is when I see it.
