Boyd comes to Grandma's


Well all the preparations are finished. The house is clean from top to bottom. Food and munchies prepared. Drinks and refreshments ready. Craig and Vanessa arrived with my new grandson Boyd. They arrived after the wedding they attend in Banff was over. It was an RCMP wedding(Phil) with groom and others in their Red Serge. Be like the kilts I think, pics looked great.
So we had an hour alone till all the friends and family in Red Deer came over to say hello to Boyd. Vannesa's relatives arrived first so my chance to hog and hold him was over. Then my sister arrived and she took over and did the feeding. Hmmmm still had to sit in the background. I am just way to polite.
This went on all afternoon as people came and left. I played the host feeding & water everyone. I pushed the cake as I'll have to eat anything left over not usually an issue but down 15 lbs I didn't want to wreck the hard work I've done.
Finally everyone left and we had some peace and quiet just to sit back and relax.
I was cleaning up carry the recycling downstairs when I stopped to chat with everyone in the living room. I was on the 2nd step and the new floor is a wee bit slippy in my socks. Wosh I was gone down for the ride. Luckily I was saved by landing on my ass. Ok not really but I think it took the main impact away from my back when I did crash to a stop. Everyone came a running to see if I was OK and as most people embarrassed as hell told them I'm fine. Which I wasn't as my back hurt like hell.
So some ice and ibuprofen and I said screw this i'm sitting down. No! Did the kids taxes on the computer good news they actually get money back. Boyd was sitting with momma Ness beside me doing the taxes and decides its time to shit myself. No not just poop but hey lets shit so much it comes out the back of the diaper and up to his arm pits.Bath time. Wow how something so small can make such a mess....
Finally every things done I have time to sit down get the baby in hand and its lets sleep on Gramps for the next 2 hours. Exciting as hell!!! No really loved every minute of it!
Then the next morning had to say goodbye and head off to work. Now its time to figure out when the next visit will be. Hope work stays slow so I can slip away for a quick 14 hour drive to see him. :(
