Cheese!!


My oldest sister has up and went to Mexico this week with her husband and we have had the privilage of watching their girls, Meridith and Shelby. Meridith is 14 and is fine as long as she has access to the computer and TV at all times. Give her a little food and water and you don't hear from her. Shelby is 8 and is a little mother to Cooper and he doesn't seem to care one way or another so long as you play with him. I am beginning to see that this whole "babysitting" thing isn't so bad. Wyatt is attached to my hip 24/7 and refuses to go to anyone so that is getting frustrating but Cooper has it made in the shade. Shelby will play with him at a moments notice and will help him with anything he asks. She buckles him in the carseat, holds his hand when we go inside the stores, gets him dressed in the morning, makes sure he is up at the right time at nap, takes him to the bathroom, makes sure he doesn't kill Wyatt . . . it's AWESOME! I have gotten so much accomplished this week with the house that I am getting sad that they will be leaving tomorrow. Who will watch my children? AAAHHH . . . ME!?

Here they are chillin in the hot tub. Brian looks like he is having way to much fun. The rest look like they are just putting up with my odd picture taking skills.

i am glad you had a good time with us. although i have a humongous bruis where your child slammed the door on my foot. and i caught a virus from your children that made me think i was gonna die. your children's noise level at a constant scream. but besides all of that i had fun..

haha.

love,
