Con, Ad, D and C

Monday I watched Con, Ad and D. N picked me up around 7:45 AM! Yes I mean AM! It was fine tho. I got in the car and she drove to her house. I got the kids out of the car while she got the stroller out of the car. Well pretty much I got D out of the car! We went inside and the boys started runnin around. Nicole said Goodbye's then left. Ad and Con watched a little TV. I got a bottle warmed feed D and then warmed another one to put in the diaper bag for our walk a little bit later. Am txt me saying 'Hey do you want to come play with C? I have to go to Pottery Barn and I don't want her to break everything in the store' I told her I was babysitting but maybe she could drop C off at there house. Long story short she dropped C off for a little while. The kids got along great! We ate lunch then went for a walk. Con brought us on a very long walk and I couldn't handle it anymore and I don't think any of the other kids could either! We walked back to there house and felt the good ol' AC! We stayed inside for a little bit and then they wanted me to drive them to a park, well that's a problem. 1. I don't have a car, 2. I don't even have a licence! Well thankfully I saw a park that was pretty good size and just down the road. I gathered all the kids and went to the park. This park was MUCH closer then the one Con was bringing us to! They played, D slept almost the whole time (which was good because I could just leave him in the stroller, in the shade and play with the other 3! They played in the sand, the slides (all tho those we a little hot from the sun beating down on them)! D woke up so we stayed for a little bit longer so I could feed him. D finished his bottle and I brought the kids home. The had a snack, I laid D down and Am came to pick up C. A little later N came home. She brought me home then I said my goodbye's.

C and As

Last Saturday I nannied C and As. Am picked me up at around 3 O'clock. We went to a couple of stores then went to there house! Am laid As down and went out for a little bit. As woke-up and I brought the kids to the park. I don't know if you've been reading my blog lately, specifically the post 'Sel kids -1' but I will tell you it is MUCH easier to bring little kids to the park when there is less heat! We started going home after I got a txt from Am saying 'Got food. Be home in 10'(or something of that kind). I figured ok, if I plan carefully, it will take me about 5min to get home then after I get both kids out of the stroller plus the diaper bag it will be about 7 minutes then. 3 minutes for C to run around/watch Little Einsteins, put As in his bouncer, wipe the table and get ready for dinner. Am got home at perfect timing and I called C to the table. We ate then Am went to go get ready. Am left and I got the kids ready for bed. Am put As to sleep so I just had C to watch. I got C ready for bed then laid her down. I went downstairs, cleaned, folded laundry and then As woke-up. It was like 10:30 and very late for a baby to be up but I just figured it was feeding time or he just had a bad dream. I went up there, rubbed his tummy then shut the door. I made it to the top of the stairs then he started screaming again. I went in there held him, then set him back in his crib. Once again I made it to the stairs. I was thinking 'Ok, I have a lot o laundry in the living room to fold, plus more in the dryer, ok I'll just bring him downstairs, put him in that toy then hopefully he will fall back asleep and I with finish folding! Well he didn't fall asleep, I txt Am and said hey he's up what do you want me to do? Well she came hope and feed him then we talked in to the wee hours of the night. I slept over at there house that night so my mom didn't have to come get me. Mr was out of town and Am couldn't just leave C and As home alone. It was a very fun night! She brought me to church in the morning and then my parents just took me home from there.

So Stinkin' Cuters

Last Wednesday I watched Tat and Turn. My mom dropped me off at there house. They were at the neighbors house so Suz walked across the street to give me a tour! There house is beautiful! Three words can sum it up. So Stinkin' Cute! I went over to the neighbors house with the kids until nap time. When it was nap time for the neighbor kids I brought Tat and Turn back home. They watched a little tv and then it was Turn's nap time. While Turn was napping Tat and I had some good girl time! She is such a cutie! It was a very hot day out so once Turn got up from his nap, we put there swimsuits on and went in there little kiddie pool on the deck. After some pool time I gave them a bath and got them in there nice comfy pj's. I love the feeling after you give a child a bath, put them in cozy pajama's and snuggle! After baths Suz came home and gave me a ride to my house.

Sel kids -1

Today I nannied B, C and As. E was at my house playing with my sister. We had a MOPS play date at a park so I just went home with Am. Lets just start off saying I bought the girls gum (each there own pack to save from a fight). When we got in the car Am went to go say bye to E. I gave the other two girls a piece of there gum. We had a big 'fight' that C wanted to hold her gum packed but Am and I wouldn't let her because A- she would eat all the gum before we got home or B- it would get all over the brand new van! Neither good! We got home and Am put As down for a nap. Or so we thought! She came down to put C down for a nap and when she can down we talked and all of a sudden hear this noise from the monitor. As was awake. Oh baby!! So we let him talk for a minute then Am and Mr left. Do you know how hard it is to remember all of these 'fake' names! I played play dough with B. It was fun then it got boring. As kept talking so I figured I go get him. I brought him down and feed him some mixed veggies. Nummy :P He ate then I was walking to lay him down again and started going up the stairs. Here comes miss.C! Maybe I wont lay him down. I had told the girls earlier that I would take them to the park so I got some snacks and water into the diaper bag (with diapers too :) ). Then I buckled As in and told C to get buckled. B had to walk because we couldn't find the babyjorn :( C couldn't get buckled because it was to tight so I told her just to buckle the top two. I wasn't to worried about her jumping out. After a few fits and different arrangements we were on our way.

It was hot out which I didn't realize until we were almost to the park. I figured I'll just have to keep As cool and the other two will play and be fine. Well As feel asleep, B and C wanted to go home and I was crabby from the heat. Not a good combo! C had to poop and B wanted to go home so I thought, well were at a school park so they will have summer school and we can just go in there bathrooms! The doors were locked. Now were ALL (minus the babe) VERY crabby. C got half buckled and b sat on the front. It was SO hard to push because of B's weight right on the edge. We walked home as fast as I could walk with a busy 4-way in the middle of it all. We got home, C and B got out I put the stroller in the garage and closed the garage door. I told myself that I would never bring the kids to the park myself again! I went inside set the popsicles on the counter and went back to the garage. I got out my purse the diaper bag and everything else. Then As. He was half asleep so that's why he was last. Once I grabed him to get him out he was fully awake. I brought him inside I feed him mixed fruits. Much better than veggies! ;) He barley started eating before his sisters started fighting. I bet you don't know what about! Sharing peanuts. Yep... We got that situation figured out, got the girls busy cleaning and then got some more mixed fruits in da belly! We listened to.... Ya know Go Fish! Then I tried laying As down but he decided to talk instead. I went and got him. Its kinda hard to put him down because he gets tackled with sisters, starts crying and then I have to go get him. So I told the girls to go in the play room and listen for the ice cream truck and if they saw the truck, I would buy them ice cream! I've never seen them run so fast! :) I got to put As down and clean the counters/tables/highchair and living room. I got the counters/tables/highchair done and then hear some interesting talking!

I stood by the play room listening to the girls yelling out the window "I'm going to kidnap you boy!" Hmmm... "Excuse me? Your going to kidnap someone?!?!" Giggles "We were just joking silly!'' "Mhm! No more please!" "FINE!" "Thank you...!'' Then they come out and start the peanut fight again. "Ok sense you don't want to share, then you can have separate bowls!" "GOOD!" "GOOD!" Then I hear the door open. Oh my gosh, someone just broke in! AH! Nope just Am! Thank goodness!! Talking, talking... "Ok, lets go!" Little bit of time, ok lets go for real! Get in car, buckle up, ready to go. Arrive at my house, talk, fun fun fun! Bye!!

Today was fun and cant wait to babysit your child some day!

So long!

Hey! I feel like I haven't updated in so long! Truth is, I haven't updated some of my jobs! Sometimes I get like a babysitting job this day, another the next day and so on. Then I just get to overwhelmed (lazy) and don't post it! I'm going to try as hard as I can to post EVERY job, EVERY time! Hopefully it pans out... I want to make my 'life' blog public. I don't really update that one either but I want some motivation and maybe Ill update both blogs more often! I will only update that one once or twice a week. Well it feels good to be back and I hope Ill be getting more and more followers. If you have friends that have kids or you know I babysit for, say hey you should read this blog! Then tell them to become a follower! I will make a promise. If you readers do your job, I will do my job and publish more! Yeah, that seems fair!

Thanks for reading and remember our litttle deal!
