Papa's baby boy

My grandson has at least 3 nick-names; Monster, from Mommy. Mister, from Daddy and Papa's Baby Boy from me.

He already calls my name when he sees me and when I'm not there, as well. I taught him to growl and to wave bye-bye and now I'm trying to teach him to knock on the door. He can open and close them, easily, thank God for dead bolts , and loves to do it every time we go out side. Next to the front door is an 6" wide by 5 Ft high window (It's his window) and I'll raise the covering and rap on the window and say: Hello, Hello. Then, he'll knock once or twice and trun toward the door. My son and I are using the window to knock on both sides, when one of us has the baby on the other side, and play peek-a-boo. And today he said "up", to me and then raised his arms. My sister told me she got him to say it before she would pick him up on the bed, it's something she taught both of her daughters when they were little. My one baby would come up to me and say "Baby, Up!" And I had better obey. Now, my sister has taught him the same. It's great.

Both his mom and I are teaching him to say Thank you and he is mumbling something, now, and I sure he'll be talking soon. I've been watching him a lot recently, about 3-5 hours a day and I've been loving every day. When I'm hold my grandson I'll tell him he's "Papa's Baby Boy" and Papa loves him. I give him a bottle when he needs a nap even though his mom doesn't like it. But what the hell, he's still a baby and if he wants his bottle to sleep with he gets it.

I've been to a few awards ceremonies this week and week-end and today I was watching the baby. My son had borrowed my truck and was working on his gf's truck and called to say he'd be here in half an hour. He wasn't an hour later and I had to leave the baby with my sister. She told me, when I got home, he sat on the floor at the bottom of the stair way and cries and howled for 30 minuets before he calmed down after I left. She said he quited down and then started again so she called my son and told him to come and get the baby. When they got here the baby still wasn't happy and wasn't going to Mommy or Daddy, at first. When he, finally, went to Mommy she said, "You are Papa's Boy, aren't you!" I love it
