Ty is a smart little guy. He's figured out that when it comes time for him to either go to bed or go home after a visit that Nana and Papa love hugs and kisses. So he'll shower us with even more hugs and kisses than normal when it's time for napping/sleeping or going home. It's the classic "stalling" technique-Give the adults more of what they want and he'll get to stay up or not have to leave for a little bit.
Carynn has a great way of addressing this. She gives Ty two minutes (or three or four) and then says that it's time to leave or go to bed. He still tries delaying at times, but she reminds him that he already had his two minutes.... Smart mom!
Smart boy!
