Great Grandparents

Jack went to visit his Great Grammie and Grandpa Colbath today. He was really shy, (I kept saying, "Like his Mom!") at first, and then he warmed up and made himself at home. He helped himself to not one, but two bananas and got to play with some antique toys that his Mommy used to play with. One, I distinctly remember was this old Fisher Price TV that played Row, Row, Row Your Boat and London Bridges... He also played with some "vintage" Little People that are cut so that their bottom halves fit right into these little plastic chairs, rocking horses and cradles. A total blast from the past. Then his Great Grandpa learned of his love for monkeys (after those two bananas we were all calling him a little monkey, and Jack has been known to make the "hoo hoo hoo, hee hee hee" sound on occasion...) and decided to give him this huge gorilla! It has lots of black hair and these eery plastic hands and feet. Jack was quite scared of it at first, but later, they bonded.
