Double Duty

Tonight I babysat (at once) Cal (1), C (2) and B (4) . It was fun!

It started out with pizza and apple sauce. Now you might be thinking ok... Good for you you had food! Well that's not the whole story about just dinner! So Cal is still little and can't really eat pizza so she had apple sauce. Then when I got out the apple sauce EVERYBODY wanted apple sauce! It was funny because I gave one to C and she didn't really eat it. I think it was that whole 'well she's having it so I better too' type of thing!

After dinner we went downstairs and cleaned/played trains and what not. After a little bit of that and puzzles we went in the big computer room and jammed out to Go Fish! Now that was fun and all but Cal didn't really want to be down (which with all of the running around, I don't blame her). So after that got a little boring we went out in the downstairs living room and played a little bit of Wii! It got a little crazy when C started flipping off of the back of the couch on to the seat part and little miss Cal trying to climb the stairs, so we went upstairs were that couldn't happen. :)

We played some UNO (not really but to B it was a total game) then it was time for C to go to bed and Cal to leave. Now you might have read that and thought 'Wow! You are such a brat wishing Cal to leave!' Well to all of you thinking that, that is not what I meant. I meant Kyle and Nealy came and picked her up! ;) So after Cal left. C went to bed after a HUGE conversation about what nuk she wanted and how she had to go potty on the potty again (even tho she just went 5 minutes ago :) ).

Then it was time for B to go to sleep! This took a little bit longer than wanted! She had a snack and we went in to her room and she told me that she cant go to sleep because it is 7:29 and she goes to bed at 7:30! So we waited that whole MINUTE before she could get in bed... Oh kids, :) So after the minute she laid down and I left the room and stood at the end of the hall to make sure she didn't get out of bed! Long story short we did that for a while then a back rub and zzzzzz...

Until next time!

London Anderson

Tonight I babysat my sister. Nothing really exciting happened. We made some AWESOME valentine's cards for my mom and Bill! This is London's. She got bored after a while so... But it's still cute! She loved using my scrap booking scissors! The writing says "Love is amazing."

This is mine. The writing says 'Love is amazing".

This is a quick easy craft that kids of all ages will love! You can do this project in many different ways! This time, I just took a white piece of printer paper and some valentine (pink & red) paper. Then you just cut hearts or whatever shape you would like and then use glue or double sided scotch tape!

We also made a printed card which is EXTREMELY easy! You can print cards from Birthdays to Get well. From bingo cards to bookmarks! I use http://www.dtlk-cards.com/ . Test it out and see what you think. I am sure there is a 'better quality' printable card website but, I chose this! You are welcome to comment on some of the websites that you use too!

Thanks for reading,

Selness Girls

Hey there bloggers,

Last night I babysat the 3 Selness girls! It was a lot of fun! Here is a little bit of my night!!


Ok so I got there and my sister London stayed to play with there oldest girl E. There the same age and get along great! So were we hanging out and the two older girls and London were playing WII and the youngest (C) was chasing me then I would turn around then she would run. It was a blast. Then it was time for little C to go to bed. So we got all her necessities and went to her room. So she was about to climb into bed when she said "I want to go in bunk bed." I said no and she said "No. I want to go in bunk bed!" that went on for a little then she stopped! It was funny. But anyways when she was about to go into her bed she wanted to rock-a-bye. So we rock-a-byed for 10 seconds and she said "Sydney, I want to go to bed." "So are you don't want to rock-a-bye anymore?" No reply. "Honey... Do you want to rock-a-bye?" yes" So we rock-a-byed a little more then she went in her crib and goodnight to her.

So London left and it was time for the two older girls (E and B) to go to bed. So we got the juice and snack then it was time for bed. B got a little sad because her clock wasn't working but we figured that out! :D Then she was fine and went to bed. Then E was downstairs in her bed and ready. She was tired but didn't want to go to bed but after a little bit of juice she was fine.

My night was full of work and excitement! Until next time...
