Back in MY day... Dr Brown's baby bottles?

I'm loving life... I get to take care of my precious grand baby and I do NOT have to deal with any of the downside of being a parent.

When I was a young parent we didn't have all the fancy time saving gadgetry that my grand daughter has at her beck and call:

As a new grand father I'm finding that I'm out of practice!

I've got to get used to opening baby bottles with a baby on my hip, One Handed EVERYTHING!

It's great to be a grand father, I'm finding that I get to spend all the quality time with my precious grandbaby and don't have the pressures I felt when I was a new father 22 years ago.

I've got to change a diaper... BRB
