When did I have kids?.... Oh wait, they are not mine

Last week I felt young again. It was babysitting week for me. It seemed as if everyone had plans except for me. So I got to be the babysitter. Last Tuesday was our good friend Jim’s birthday so I watched Jimmy and Katie for a few hours. Jimmy is 3 and Katie is almost 8 weeks. It went pretty well. Jimmy and I played lots of fun imaginary games with monsters and bad guys. He was very careful to make sure that the monsters didn’t get baby Katie. Then on Saturday I watched Liam my little sister Ashten’s baby. He is 9 months old so he was crawling everywhere. He was pretty good till he got hungry and I knew I was suppose to feed him but I wasn’t sure what the formula powder to water ratio was suppose to be so he had a lot of those “Puffs” till I talked to my sister and found out how to mix his formula. He was a great kid after he ate. Well all and all it wasn’t too bad. They are fun to barrow but it defiantly reminds me why Dugan and I are waiting a while longer before we have any children of our own.

That’s right I’m a House Wife and a College Student

Sorry I haven’t posted in a bit. There hasn’t been anything that I have pic of that has happened recently. Dugan and I have just been working lots and making sure that everything at home is totally organized before school starts. Well everything is in order and there are many of you who would envy our organized closets. They are beautiful, so beautiful in fact that I might just have to take a pic and post it. Plus after a little trial and error I have come up with a wonderful recipe and grocery plan. I have worked out what to make on what night. I have grocery list for each two week block of shopping and I have enough different things that we won’t get board on food that is for sure. It will be nice when school starts to have everything ready so I just have to cook and not think about it. Plus it really helps you eat healthy and stay on a budget when everything has already been planned out.

Happy 4th of July

On the 4th of July we got up early so we could go and see the Hot air Balloons take off and have a pancake breakfast. Then we went to the Parade. My mom has the pic form that but here are some from the rest of the day.

Liam was so cute at the Parade he was sitting there clapping and rolling around. A little over half way through he fell asleep. He was out cold on the Blanket. We had to put him on Ashten's back to walk to the car. His arm is suppose to be in the whole but he kept taking it out. He is very SLEEPY.

Ashten with Liam on her back. You can tell she is super strong. Liam is 20lbs.

Some Pictures of Liam while we cooked our BBQ.

Liam playing with a puppet that looks like his real dog Shady.

He is so cute. He is thinking about crawling.

He loves his Aunt Char. Look at that smile he is giving me.

Grandma gave him the dishes to make poached egg's in to play as cymbal's. He is pretty good. Maybe he should have been in the parade.

Dugan and I waiting for the Fireworks to start.

Happy 4th of July. I love AMERICA!
