Captain Hiram's





Methinks we have sent similar pictures in 2011 and 2010. As you notice, Crispin tends to sit in a place where I cannot assist him, which turns out to be just right because he does just fine on his own. Grandpop again commented on Liam's interest in eating salad (Liam chose salad as his entree for both meals today), and I've noticed that now that Crispin prefers to choose his own carb-heavy food off the children's menu, I am eating much more Snapper and Grouper as my entrees (rather than suffering through eating a steak to share with Crispin).

For the first time in years, it was cool and almost rainy during a day of one of our visits to Florida (fortune has smiled on us), and we enjoyed the indoor spaces of our hotel room. Here, the boys are enjoying fruit





acquired from Publix, at which we made almost daily trips for years to pick up bread and cold cuts for Grandpop and Grandmom when the "light lunch" of sandwiches ("Bill, here's what's going to happen today. We're going out to Hiram's for a big dinner, so we'll just have sandwiches for lunch.") was de rigueur.

The fruit helped the boys to acquire enough energy to practice destroying their grandparents' beds on their next visits to Virginia and Connecticut.




Crispin was assisting with my fitness program by letting me know I could use the hotel bed as a rebounder. When I was a boy, I pined for bunk beds, just because they seemed so, so full of what a boy would want. Crispin and Liam have bunk beds (and I sleep in a loft bed, which gives them plenty of climbing and hanging adventures, but not necessarily bouncing), and enjoy the freedom a good, wide open, liberated bed ready to be bounced on.

We scootered long enough for Crispin to get a blister and ask to be carried. Good thing I've been bouncing on the bed to keep in shape.
