Coleman: Selfies

Today while I was occupied with mundane housework my grandson, Coleman, confiscated my phone. While the phone was in his possession he opened the camera. Mind you the phone was in the locked position. That did not stop him from taking random pictures including pictures of himself.

the camera

Random shots …. I deleted the ones of the floor and his feet.

Selfies are not new for Coleman. He constantly swipes my phone. I never no what pics are gonna turn up after I get the phone back from him. Even though I don’t like him taking my phone, I love ❤️ him so much. I would be lost without him.

God bless. Love y’all. Remember I appreciate y’all. Thank you for visiting with me and my grandson.

Coleman Expressions:

Today’s been kind of a lazy crazy day. Relaxing and reenergizing in the comforts of home. That however, does not stop 🛑Coleman from his climbing antics. This morning he’s been climbing on a collapsible TV tray. Didn’t matter that it collapsed, he got up and did it all over again.

TV Tray

This is not ours but it similar. It’ll give you an idea of what he was climbing on and falling from when it collapsed.

Gotta love ❤️

His expressions change

Take your eyes 👀 off

Monday Meanderings: Coleman wanderings

Coleman….off he goes

My grandson, Coleman loves to be in the outdoors. He loves to hike through the meadows, forests, or wherever you’ll let him wander.

Come on Nana……
I’m gonna leave you behind
if you don’t hurry up.

And off we go on our Monday meanderings. It is a bright sun shiny day. Beautiful morning to spend hiking in nature. Upon entering the trail by our home, we come across the chickens letting us know they roaming free range today.

Chickens making their presence known

Let’s hurry on by……Don’t want to get pecked.

Coleman scurrying through the meadow.

We came across down tree branches from the latest rain/windstorms. Bright blue skies, puddles, and an old shed were among our discoveries today.

Coleman and his many expressions

Coleman decided to check his height against a stack in the middle of the meadow. Now on to more discoveries and enjoying being outdoors.

On the way back, a turn, a smile, more puddles, and an interesting metal squirrel.

Panoramic view of the meadow.

Do you think the hike tired him out? No way, he was still full of energy and ready for some swinging.

Coleman swinging and a twisting having a good ole time.

I hope your day was filled with God’s beauty and were able to enjoy some warmth from the sun shining down upon you. Always know the Son, Jesus Christ, is shining upon your day.

God bless. Try to Get Outdoors, enjoy nature, and be amazed by all that God has created. Remember I appreciate y’all very much. Feel free to like, comment, and follow.

Beautiful Sunshiny Day: Outdoor Time with Coleman

It was such a beautiful sunshiny day. The Sun ☀️ glistening over the pasture as deer grazed in our sights. God blesses us with wonderful views of nature and his creations right from our own backyard. Isn’t God great? God is Good.

Coleman exploring and having fun.
Whether he’s running or swinging
he’s having a wonderful time
enjoying the beautiful day
outside in the bright sunshine.
My grandson, Coleman
you gotta love ❤️

Happy Thursday
Be blessed
Be happy

Warming Up: Outside Play

The weather is warming up and spring is approaching. Are you enjoying spring like weather? Or perhaps where you’re at you’re still in the midst of crazy winter weather. No matter which I hope you’re able to enjoy some quality outdoor time.

Time to slide
Trying to take canopy off
Weeeeee……more sliding
Swinging from the bar
That was fun 🤩. I’m gonna do it again.

Outside watching my grandson enjoy playing is a wonderful thing. I love ❤️ to see him enjoying himself. The smile 😊 on his face, his energetic enthusiasm, lifts my spirit.

God bless. Be energetic. Be full of life. Have fun.

Nice Day: Swinging – Sliding

It was such a nice day to be outside with my grandson today. After so many freezing cold, wet, and dreary days it felt terrific to feel the warmth of the sun. My grandson really likes being outdoors. It is extremely difficult on him when he has to stay indoors. He was relieved to be able to go outside run around, climb on his swing set, slide down, and swing on his green disk swing.

How does it make you feel when the weather is cold and dreary? Does it get you down? Does it change your mood? Changes in weather do have an effect on how we feel. When we are cooped up inside, it plays on our emotions. At least it does for me. Being outdoors is so freeing, it makes me feel alive.

My grandson is always so full of energy. It was relieving to be able to allow him the freedom to enjoy playing outside today. It brings me joy and happiness to watch him enjoying himself.

My grandson, Coleman

Hope you were able to enjoy your day. Take time, when possible, to enjoy the outdoors. Feel alive and free. You are appreciated. Be sure to like, comment and follow. I’d enjoy hearing from y’all.

Nana’s Boy

My favorite subject, my grandson. He’s a handful, but gotta love 💕 his antics and expressions.
