Great Grandma Pauline

Paul's Grandma Pauline lives in Saskatoon and we were able to visit her twice during our stay there. She's so fun to visit! Like her daughter Joanne (Paul's mom), it's obvious how much joy she has in seeing Claire. Grandma Pauline always remarks on Claire's sweet and easygoing nature ("I've never heard her cry!"). She was also impressed this visit with Claire's ability to put her own shoes on (on the correct feet too!) and her ease in opening my diaper bag to put away the colouring book and crayons Grandma gave her.

Like most grandmas, Grandma Pauline always spoils Claire with loads of treats. This time it was Smarties, suckers and money for ice cream. Check out both of Claire's hands in the photos below.
Thanks Grandma!!

So wonderful for both Claire and great-grandma Pauline to have special time together.

Great grandmas are special. I'm glad you were able to visit together. Monica, you really need to spend 2 weeks here to visit with everyone. Claire seemed to take all the new faces in stride.
