RESPECT
So I'm currently about to enter my 12th hour of babysitting. I'm pretty sure that I didn't baby sit more than a total of about 12 hours in my childhood... So this is a pretty big deal. I am helping out some friends, it was courtneys (the mom) birthday on the 12th and then Valentines today. So they went for a nice vacation down to Reno to celebrate. Their kids are Chloe, 5; Talisha, 4; Cara, 2; and Tyler, 1. So it's been quite the party. We watched three episodes of hannah montana (oh joy) and part of elmo in grouchland. We all got bundled up and went and played in the snow. I even got brave enough to take them all to the store. (they wanted pancakes but their wasn't enough mix.) Boy was that an experience... Trying to get them all in the van, all in their car seats, all into the store and around the store... Haha. I got lots of stares, cuz I was lacking a ring and don't really look old enough to have four kids... Course their mom is only 3 years older than me... Anyways, dinner was very interesting. Cooking for five by yourself really stinks. So does doing dishes for five- by yourself. Currently tyler and cara are asleep and chloe and talisha are taking a bath. But they won't let me in there cuz "they are naked". Haha, so I'm sitting outside the door. Tomorrow is going to be an adventure as well... I get to take them to church. But I'm bringing them to my singles ward so I'm sure there will be plenty of girls (who are dying to impress the boys with their mothering skills) who will help me. Oh and did I mention I got to change multiple pooppy diapers... So wonderful. I gotta give props to courtney. She does this everday! I already have sore feet and am very much looking forward to a nice soak in the bath. I'm pathetic. I think this is why humans don't generally have multiple births!!! Gotta get used to kids one at a time!
