On a recent trip to NC to visit family and friends, I got to meet a grand-nephew of whom I had only seen pictures, since he lives in Wisconsin. His name is Chase, and he's active and good-natured and very bright. He's also just a bit shy, and his way of showing affection (to those except his mother) is to bump fists with you.
He's fond of cars of all sizes and will occupy himself a long time playing with one.
We celebrated his second birthday while I was there. He did a fine job of both eating and wearing the cake!
After cake it was time for presents. Cousin Brandon and Megan gave him a Tonka police car that made very satisfactory noises when you pushed the buttons on the back. If it hasn't been subjected to a "batteryectomy" by the adults in the household by now, I would be greatly surprised, but he loves it.
It kept him occupied for hours, and it went everywhere with him--presumably even to bed!
I really enjoyed the chance to get to know him and to see the rest of the family, too.
