Grandson Shopping
Today Pop & I decided to hit the baby shops now that we know we are having a Grandson. We did go a little crazy buying a big plush Lion and a Crocodile to go with the nursery jungle theme, a blue “flat” teddy, a box of beautifully scented Crabtree & Evelyn baby draw liners and a very cute trendy outfit – cargo pants, jumper, hat and the most adorable soft leather shoes I’ve ever seen.
Pop bought a child’s tool set – he just couldn’t resist it, I’m sure we all buy things we would have loved to have had ourselves as a child. Beautifully made to scale with wooden turned handles all in a lovely wooden case, but it will have to stay up out of reach for many, many years yet. I’d take a photo, but it’s so beautifully gift wrapped I can’t undo it. And two little t-shirts with cute slogans – “When Mummy says No, go ask Granddad” and “I love hanging out with my Poppy”. I’m sure he will!
Well, as Grandparents, isn’t that our job to spoil?
