This is the first time, ever, that both children (Jenn and Ben), their spouses, and their children (all seven of them) have ever presented themselves in the same room at the same time, in my presence.
It was a madhouse!
But I enjoyed it anyway.
From time to time someone would put an infant in my arms and then stand back while someone photographed the event. Bad Idea. I am not photogenic. But I liked the kids, and generally ignored the photographers. Good idea. I provided the camera for most of these "Photo Opportunities", so I deleted them
Just to prove that I actually have infant grandchildren, I'll include some of the pictures here,.
This is Adrian ...
... and this is Logan.
Okay, so it's the same picture. Doesn't matter. They're twins, nobody can tell them apart anyway. It's like: "if you've seen one, you've seen them all."
Anyway, we not only enjoyed the Twins, but we enjoyed the rest of the family as well.
Interesting side-story: while I was in San Diego, grand-daughter Samantha referred to me as "Grandfather Jerry".
Sandie had to stay behind when I left, because she had an appointment at U.C. Irvie on Tuesday. After I left, samantha (in conversations with SWMBO), referred to me as "Your Boyfriend". I guess the grandfather thing is transitory, but Boyfriends are forever.I'll never understand the mind-set of pre-adolescent females, but it's probably good that she understands the relationshiop.
