~My Buddy~

Welcome to Friday's Favorite Family Foto!


You met our grandsons Coy and Andrew a couple weeks ago and you've seen many photos of our granddaughter Kathryn. Have you met our grandson Nicholas? He's my buddy and I often call him that, much to his dismay...I think it embarrasses him just a little. But he knows we are best buddies. I take care of Nick while his mommy and daddy work and when he's not in preschool.


This is Nicholas at around seven months old. I had just given him a bath. Look at those eyes!
All our grandchildren have fair complexions and blue eyes...except for Nicholas. You just cannot ignore those big brown eyes.
He's just like his daddy in looks and personality.My Nicholas was the baby and only boy for two years...then along came his baby boy cousin and he wasn't too thrilled about the whole situation. This photo was taken at the hospital the day little Coy was born. Nicholas stayed right with me until he finally fell asleep on my lap. He didn't want Grandma to hold the new baby.

There have been times when we get into a little trouble at Grandma's house...like the time I was on the phone trying to make a doctor's appointment. This is what I found when I finished my phone call. The day before, because he had been so good, he was allowed to choose a treasure from the treasure box at school.
He chose a stamper with blue ink.

Nicholas is four and a half now...and he doesn't let you forget that "half" part. This photo was taken on his fourth birthday. Isn't he handsome?!
...and growing up so quickly!


I'll be sharing more of Nicholas on Friday's to come, because he's my buddy!

Good morning Deborah, I love your sweet post about Nicholas. He is a very handsome little boy. The blue smile is a hoot. Was he trying to eat that stuff? Big smile. I helped our daughter with her small children too. It creates a huge bond doesn't it? I have missed them and all of our grands since we have moved to NC. You look so pretty in the photo with Nicholas.
He does have beautiful brown eyes.

I am glad Mr. Linky is working today. Enjoy your day.

Love..Jeanne

You look beautiful as always.
Love Claudie

Oh, Deborah! Your Buddy sure is a handsome little man! And I can see the all boy in him too!!! hehehe If he is anything like my little man, I feel for you girl!!! Mine keeps me on my toes. I just caught my little 5 yr old boy trying to screw a nail or a hook of some sort into my wall. He is always up to something! Since he came along my house looks like a tornado has blew through my house!

Angela
