Holding the Great Grands

 Saturday we travelled up North to see everyone, our Grand Maddie was visiting from Michigan.   Our two Great Grandchildren we there along with our five Grands.  We got hugs!  AND got to hold our newest great grand who was born during the pandemic...Cee Cee is 15 months old now. 


Cee Cee in the little pig tails!


Hey Mikey who has just turned  4 years old a few weeks ago.


I think there was a tickle bug loose. 


They were both interested in my glasses on the sparkly chain.


So fun to see everyone and to catch up with all of our loved ones!   We all went out to lunch and the old folks were home well before dark!

Wow! That must have been wonderful! Oh I am so glad you got to see everyone. Yesterday a neighbor child came by and Rich hadn't seen her in a year. He was shocked at how tall she grew!
Wonderful day.

How wonderful! Hey Mikey looks so grown up and CeeCee is just a doll. I'm so happy you were able to visit in person and get those much needed hugs.

I'm so happy you got to see your family and get and give hugs and kisses!!!
Those 2 little ones are so darn cute! I love Hey Mikey's hair...they are both just precious. What's the IV in Far Guys arm? He has to be connected to his medicine?
It is just so wonderful to see you with your family again but glad you didn't miss your bedtime!

It's exciting to see the grand kids at any time but more so after not seeing them for so long.

I'm so glad you got to visit your grandkids and great grandkids (and I presume your kids too!) It's a special time, for sure.

Lynda said...

Does Cee Cee resemble some of your childhood pictures? If I am remembering correctly, it seems she does?.
Mikey's curly hair is beautiful. Which family member does he inherit that from?
Like the others, I am very thankful you all got to visit!

Pauline Persing said...

Love the pictures of the great-grands. They are truly great.

Victoria Zigler said...

Glad you got some proper family visiting in, and finally got to hold Cee Cee.

Cee Cee looks like her Mama:) Hey Mikeys curly hair comes from his Dad!

Diana said...

How wonderful you got to see and hold those precious grandkids! They're both adorable!

Jacqi Stevens said...

I'm so glad you finally got to see the greats! Hopefully, now things will get back to normal and you can see them more often--right while they're growing the fastest!

They are such sweet great grand kids. I am so glad that you got to see them. If they were like our one grandson when we first saw him he wasn't so sure he was at the right place with these old people living here.

Debi said...

So wonderful that you got to visit with family and to love on those grandbabies! It seems like things are slowly getting back to normal.
