ahh, children....

sunday afternoon, well about all day, i hung out with my best friend. the bundle of fun i've known since 3 or 4 :) love her! we worked on a couple songs (i sing she plays guitar) and mixed cooking oil and a bunch of other stuff into a cup of water that was just sitting there on the counter waiting for us to make something that smelled absolutely awful! we went over to her house and hung out watching a couple Skit Guys' videos and Edwin's Corner online (check them out! both are hilarifying!!) then got informed that we were to watch our parents' friends kids. oh my gosh so adorable! i was put mostly in charge of the baby, my bff helped me though, THANK GOD. i know babysitting a baby is not even close to actually having one, but my heart goes out to all those moms out there!! my mom said that God makes babies cute so you don't feel like you want to kill them lol. well anyway, the other preschool aged kids were very well behaved. the oldest little girl and her brother just adored their baby brother :) it was the sweetest thing! but that baby, i had to stand and hold him to burp him, and my right side was the only one that really worked for him cause he enjoyed staring at the dog or his siblings or the tv, and he was always moving his head around, so he spit up all over me lol eew gross, but he was cute, though my right arm was so sore after that. when it was time to put him in bed, we changed his diaper and put him in his pjs, which was quite the adventure for me and my friend lol he was busy staring at something and chewing on a toy lol. when we finally got him ready, we carried him up and laid him in his crib. now this baby, he loved being covered up! as soon as i laid the blanket over him his face lit up with a bright, yet toothless smile :) and he cooed at me, just laughing and talking away! the cutest thing. later we went up to check on him, he was like totally laying the opposite way from when we'd put him in and was talking to the wall lol (not like talking talking, but like baby language talking ;]) so cute! the other kids got 30 more minutes than their baby brother, and took total advantage of it too lol they came into the living room and suggested we have a quiet dance party! then we read with them and got them in bed :) and i finally got to eat my dinner, at 8 30. i didn't get to eat when we got there, like everyone else, cause the baby wouldn't let me put him down lol but it was cool, i can deal with cold pizza ;)
