The Troops

Have you ever tried to get three kids to all look at the same time to get a picture? What a joke right? LOL This picture was taken on the first day of my new babysitting job. From left to right...Eric, Gavin and Dylan. I am soooooo happy that I have finally learned how to get a picture in my blog! Although it does look a little funny. Oh well, at least it's there! The day went really good. Dylan and Eric play great together, and Gavin is a content baby. I had forgotten what it was like to actually have to hold a child in my arms to feed him! It HAS been a couple years ya know! LOL But it was nice to do that again! So I think the sitting is going to work out good!

A First for Dylan

Yesterday Dylan went just about all day in his "big boy underwear" for the first time! And no accidents at all believe it or not. I did put a diaper on him when he went down for his nap though. I even forgot he was diaper less and took off to CVS without a thought about it until we got into the CVS parking lot. I kept telling him to please not potty in his pants, and he didn't! We weren't there long though. I am so proud of him. Today we are going to see the doctor. Dylan and I have both had a cold. Really bad coughing and runny noses. This morning he's been complaining about his ear. I lost some hearing from an ear infection so I called the doctor. Hopefully we can get something to knock this cough out of him. It's the kind that just burns your chest!!

And some news about me....I may be taking on another "job" next week. My cousin asked me to babysit her kids one day a week, so I said yes. So along with cleaning for my Grandpa and babysitting I will be actually making an income again! YAY!! It feels good to be making some money after being without a job(out of the home) after almost four years! I just hope the baby sitting works out. My cousin's youngest who is 5-6 months old is kinda picky on who he likes. So we'll see! Wish me luck!

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everybody! Although last night from the looks of it with all the snow coming down, it seemed like Santa should have been coming! LOL The Easter Bunny was very good to Dylan. Of course he got a ton of candy in his basket, along with the Peter Pan movie, a mini kite and a couple of Easter books. I don't think Dylan really understood that the Easter Bunny filled his basket and left it though. And he didn't understand how to find his basket either. Alton ended up having to show him that it was hidden behind our recliner. Oh well, maybe next year right? Anyway, I hope you all have a nice day today! Happy Easter!
