Babysitting the Boys

Saturday after the retreat, Jaime and the boys came up. Her and Jeremy were going to a military ball that night and I was going to watch the boys for them. It all went so well! I think the most stressful part was doing Jaime's hair and worrying that I wouldn't be able to make it look good. But after I helped with her hair and make-up, they were on their way.

We played and read books and watched movies. It all went surprisingly smooth. I even managed to get them all bathed and in pajamas by the time Michael got home from drill. I think it just gets easier the older they get. I am really looking forward to the months and years ahead, watching them grow up together. And honestly, watching four kids on a Saturday night is not my first pick, but since we don't live as close as I'd like, I am so happy for these moments that our kids get to spend time together and I get to spend time with them.
