Babysitting

With the Schoolteacher Daughter and Spouse having a big time in Europe, The Fuzz and His Sweetie had a turn at babysitting the Granddaughter.
The Fuzz says there's nothing like trying to keep up with a young'un to make you feel your age. 
But it is a little reminder of how things used to be.

The Fuzz and His Sweetie were able to relocate to the home for these few days, which was probably an advantage since it was a familiar place.
 In these situations it's nice to have the opportunity for diversions...

And this splash pad  was a handy one.

And there was a playground handy as well.

This little Imp will climb anything!
But it was a good place to hang around.

We won't go into the diaper changes and all that...
Or the fact that you can't take your eyes off her for 5 minutes with out some sort of mischief.

But one of the advantages of Grandparenting is that eventually, you get to go home.
And The Fuzz and His Sweetie were properly relieved from their post.

They were glad to spend a bit of time with one of the younger members of the family- and be helpful at the same time.
But lets just say that they were also glad to be able to get back to the woods!
