Last night while K and I were making dinner there was a knock on the door. It was my cousin that I haven't seen in a year. We was in a bad way and had no one to watch his daughter today because his girlfriend is very sick and he needs the money to work. He came over with his head hung asking if I could help and watch J today. Obviously I said yes, but boy are my arms tired!
R slept over again last night, so I was starting the day with 4 kids and going up to 5 by 8. Poor J was so sad this morning. I was the first sitter she's ever had other than her mom, dad and grammy. She's 12 months old and weighs 34 pounds. She is adorably huge. She was so sad today that I had no choice but to hold her and try to comfort her. She is a love and warmed up to us quickly, but got startled by the noise of my house. How do you prepare an only child and grandchild for this kind of noise?! :)
We went to C's friends house today for a play date. It's really a play date for all of us since I really like her mom. We had 10 kids between us today that we were taking care of. And you know what? It really wasn't bad. The day flew by and the house is clean and my arms are sore.
Bring on tomorrow!
