Monday with Papa


Every week Nana and Sweetie pick two days
to spend together while JR and I are at work.

The other 3 days she joins her friends at school.

This week, Nana could only spend one day with her littlest granddaughter
since she has a visitor from out of town staying at her place.

Papa to the rescue.

JR has a habit of not taking his vacation days from work.

He has 3 weeks worth of vacation from 2009 to use up by June this year.
He decided to start spending some Daddy/Daughter time with his girl...
so expect lots more this to come!

Unbelieveable cuteness...let the spoiling begin.

First thing when he gets up JR runs to the bagel shop to shower his princess with a fresh bagel baked that morning ...

Then off to do some outdoor chore time together a la Papa
Note the fact that Sweetie is in her jammies
and isn't wearing ANY shoes in the freezing cold...
I did!

Then a little food shopping.

See the bandaid?

Well, after her accident last summer we kept her forehead covered and out of the sun until late Fall, per doctor's orders.

She is the undisputed Bandaid Queen 'round these parts.

Now, she's addicted to them and feels they are so much more than a fashion accessory!
To her, they are a necessity.
She checks to see if the sun is out at the window each day
and even though she no longer needs to cover her scar
(its the dead of Winter after all!) she wants to.
I tell her no and distract her until
she's on to the next thing and forgets about it.

Not JR. He still lets her wear them whenever she wants...even to bed.
Last night there was one sideways across her nose when I put the blanket on her again at 2am.

One thing's for sure...these two are completely off the CUTE-OMETER!

  1. Very special. Linhsey has just started taking an extra liking to her Dada. A much needed break for me. Something just seemed to click recently and now she is all about him.

  8. Off the charts on the cuteness factor!!!

    I love that you've captured these special moments between JR and Sweetie Pie - I love watching Danny with his girls. I just sit back and bask in it.

    Question: who took that picture of them in the driveway where SP is wearing her PJ's and socks?

    Loved this post. All sugar and sweetness!

    xoxo

  9. I love that he is using those days to be with his littlest sweetheart. Makes my hart smile.

    We have the band-aid thing here, too, if one has a boo-boo the other one has an empathy boo-boo in the exact location on their body, I can't see 99% of the boo-boos.

    I am afraid if I bought the cute band-aids there would be even more imaginary boo's.

    Tell JR to spend some vacation days this way, he can have all the kids days he desires. FREE BANDAIDS!

    Love V

    I want to do lunch too!!!
