STARKEY HOLLOW: Busy Beaver...

Busy Beaver...

From the minute this little guy comes in the door...he is one busy little beaver!

You can see the wheels turning and you wonder what he is thinking or where he will turn next....as he is running to get there!

Today was kinda fun because he was on "slo-mo"....which means he was only 1/2 as fast...which means I could almost keep up!! He was playing with toys for more that 30 seconds and focused in on one that he really enjoyed.

I get a kick out of how seriously he plays almost like it's his work. It's so much fun to watch...like when our kids were little...all the things I've forgotten.

Concentrating, learning....

Until it wears him ....all...out! (~and moi too)

Kim said...: Such a little angel. Great photos too. I often look at the little ones and wonder what they are thinking. They can get so intense and focused at times. He is precious.; January 28, 2011 at 9:23 PM
Julia said...: Donna, what a beautiful little grandchild. Watching them grow is so much fun and if we blink, they are all grown up. It seems like yesterday I was sitting on my swing and singing silly funny songs and sharing some little stories with my oldest granddaughter and already she's 17. How they grow so fast.

Enjoy every precious moments and make good memories for them. Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog. I'm enjoying some quality time with the new baby. He's such a joy. JB; January 28, 2011 at 10:14 PM

Jeanne Henriques said...: Donna, I love how you look at your grandchildren...looking thru a grandmother's eyes. He is so sweet and adorable and the intention in his look is so compelling. It is so nice when they plum tucker themselves out and such a nice feeling for us too...a peaceful home is the best kind of home :)

Country Wings in Phoenix said...: Hi Donna Sweetie...
What a beautiful share today. I love this post, your little guy has the sweetest little face. Your photos are gorgeous and he is a keeper.

I love the little wheels you can see turning as he is working along. A little frown now and again, and then he was off to the races. So precious. Thank you for allowing me to visit as well. Love the grands. All 8 of ours keep us hopping.

Have a glorious weekend sweetie. Many hugs and much love, Sherry; January 29, 2011 at 2:24 PM

Darlene said...: What a darling little boy! It is so neat that you get to have him with you. I wish I had some babies close by. The great grandchildren are not quite two hours away, but somehow, we don't get over there as much as I would like and they don't come here much unless their Gandma (Sue) happens to be here. Plus, they really don't like me much. They never did for some reason, so I couldn't cuddle and play with them. I guess it was because they knew how much I really wanted to be close to them, and they are stubborn!!

It is great that you are taking such darling pictures of him too, because they grow up way too quickly.; February 2, 2011 at 2:13 PM
Robin said...: Isn't it just wonderful how you can almost see the wheels turning in their minds? I used to love just watching Jameson and wonder what in the world was going through his head! He is adorable!; February 3, 2011 at 10:32 PM
