Nana or Nani?

 While in Colorado, we took a little ride out to the mountains.  

Even before we were out of the neighborhood, Kaia was asleep.

I cannot imagine riding a bike UP the mountains!

Tenley did not sleep.  That would mean an early night for her and maybe a little grumpy evening.

Speaking of attitudes, Kaia has learned the word "MINE!"

Bear would love her food, but he won't ever take it without it being given to him.  He is a really good dog!  Kaia need not worry.

Daddy called the girls a few times to see how they were.  He LOVES his girls!

The girls have a fun little play room.

We took a walk around their neighborhood.

"Look, Nani!"

My first granddaughter, Hannah, was the one who first called me "Nana".  Not sure how that comes from Grandma, but somehow, there are lots of Nanas. 

But now, Tenley thinks I should be Nani.  I have often wished I would have long time ago had the kids call me "Ba-chan",  the Japanese name for granny.  

ばあちゃん

But whether Nana or Nani, I will answer to those too!

Tenley helped me make coffee cake one morning.

We had craft time too.  We made birdies in a nest.

I made up a song "Fly, fly, birdies fly" that they love to sing and do actions with.

Whenever I read this Pattibook and get to this page, I sing the song and the kiddos do the actions to it.

Mindy wrapped the table in some craft paper so the kids can color and add stickers to it.  Gotta keep the kids busy and out of mischief!

What fun this Nana - or rather, a Nani - has with her grandkids!
