babysitting.....

i'm learning what it would be like to have 3 kids. i am babysitting mack, masen and lily for 3 hours. mack is playing a racing game on xbox and masen was racing but now is playing with the dogs and trying to calm lily down with me. she has been crying since 10 mins after she was dropped off. carol told me she was kinda grumpy cause she got her bottle taken away yesterday. i can stop her crying for only secs at a time distracting her with toys, sweets, something to drink, thor, her tea-set that she brought with her, my necklace, picking her up. after mack is done racing we are going to the store next door to get treats and then we are going to watch brother bear. masen sure is helpful. he keeps playing with lily, showing her thor, pretending to fall off the couch to ger her attention and it all seems to be working. i love these kids!! not that you would know the difference but since i have started typing i have had to go upstairs to follow lily twice and we have already been to the store cause mack was done playing. the whole time we were gone, lily was so good but the second we got back it was a different story. you wouldn't believe that i started this blog over 40 mins ago. i just put the movie on so i am hoping lily will sit with me on the couch and watch it. i love having these kids and can't wait until i have my own two, three or four or whatever kids but for now i just can't wait until the first one comes!!
