Finally an Update...

I know it has been forever since I have made a post. My excuse is that I don’t have a kid so I don’t have anything to write about or any cute pictures to show. I really have just been working and have had the chance to take care of Boston and Cade last weekend. I had so much fun with them even if I didn’t get that much sleep. I got them Friday night and they spent the night with Mike and me. Then on Saturday we just hung out around the house and I even took an adventure with the two boys and we went out shopping. That was an experience in and of its self, me with a two year old that likes to be independent and a 6 month old that doesn’t like being in the car. We first went to Hobby Lobby and then it was off to Wal-mart. We were in the craft section and Boston has a good eye and noticed the toys. So as we are looking at the beads Boston is trying to convince me to take him over to the toys. I had to inform him that we were not going to buy anything. It was really funny because he would tell me that we would just go and look and he was fine with that. So we get over to the toys and the next thing out of his mouth is “I would like to hold that but we aren’t going to buy it” and that was ok with me. Then he started to tell me that we aren’t going to buy it but he was going to get it for his birthday. So anything he saw he said “I get that for my birthday”. So after that we went home and made a Mother’s Day present for Ashley from Boston. I was a poem that I had about little kids’ fingerprints and then we stamped his hands on the paper. Later that day I look the boys back to Ashley and Jamie. It was a nice weekend to spend with those little guys. Thanks Jamie and Ashley for letting me take your kids. So that is pretty much all that has gone on around our place.

You are such a good aunt to do all those fun things with them. I bet Ashley and Jamie loved having the break.

I hadn't heard that story, but it does sound extremely familiar. That whole "maybe for your birthday" is how I get out of buying him toys everytime we go to the store!

Yes we do love having you close by and all you do to help us. Thank you for watching them so I could sleep!

it's great hearing about you and Mike even if you think it's boring...not to me...plus sometimes I wonder if people get tired hearing about my baby....I try to share about me and Mike too. So where do you work now?
