ADVENTURES IN BABYSITTING







Melissa wanted to celebrate her 27th birthday by having a spa day at Glen Ivy with Rebecca. It was all planned that I would watch the Gargalis boys and Rebecca's mother-in-law, Carey, would watch her girls. Plans changed when Carey got really sick this week. Melissa was more than willing to go on her own, but I knew they were both looking forward to a day off. So. . . I volunteered to watch all 4. Rebecca brought her girls to Melissa's house and it turned out to be a breeze. Who knew? It was a busy day, but the kids were all so good and usually one of them was napping. Last week while I was in Utah I watched Kaylee so Ben and Jamie could go out on a date for the first time in 7 months. Kaylee was an angel, just like her cousins. I must have the sweetest, best, grandchildren ever! I realize now that I should have done a slide show to fit in all the cute pictures of everyone, but it's late, and since I've come this far, I'm going to go ahead and post this. Baby-steps!

Good job mom! I tried to fix it a little. Try using the picture icon at the top of the posting box next time. I hope you don't mind. Glad you servived the busy 4! Only 4 more weeks! I'm so ready to come to California.

You did good mom. It does limit you on how many pictures you can post at a time though. A slideshow would still be cute.

Wow Mom- I'm SO proud of you! You're becoming quite the blogger. Thanks again for our day at Glen Ivy. It was perfect! Can't wait for you to come with us next time : )

Rebecca told me about your adventure! What a trooper! But didn't you know that grandkids usually ALWAYS behave for their grandparents? They KNOW that mom and dad aren't around. :)
