Calling Grandpa Steve...do you copy?

We've been concerned recently that some of Simon's calls haven't been getting through, so we thought we better post them here to make sure Grandpa Steve gets the message. (Apparently you are frequently called from daycare, too!)

Our first clue that maybe the calls weren't going through was his choice of new-fangled fancy phones that we've never even heard of--such as the graham-cracker-phone, which he used just today at snack time. We're guessing most phone service providers are a little behind Simon, and haven't yet developed the technology to connect calls to devices such as the graham-cracker-phone...


...although even when he uses a more traditional phone device, sometimes we're still not sure that the call was connected. We'll have to check with Qwest to see whether this particular phone is in fact connected to our landline :).

  • That is hilarious! Elsie sometimes uses our ipod or the real phone (until the nice woman's voice comes on saying whatever it is she says!) to call people. She will often ask her "friends" or "family members" about how their lunch was, saying "lunch good? huh?" "eggs good?" "applesauce good?" - usually stating what she has had for that day. Gotta love the cuteness at this stage, don't you think?!

  • HellOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Simon!
    I remember a TV character calling from his shoe but then cracker phones probably were not invented yet you clever little fellow!
    I look forward to our next trip to the park!
    Love Grandpa Steve

  • This is so cute! How wonderful that you can share these fun moments by blog video when we can't be there in person to see them. Simon is changing and growing so fast - it's great not to miss it.
    Love,
    Mom
