Babysitting Night

I have many friends with children some of them allow me the pleasure of babysitting for them occasionally. Since all of my children are grown and I have not been blessed with any grandchildren yet, this is a real treat for me. I call it getting a "baby fix". Here are some pictures of my babysitting night this past weekend. The 3 children are a year apart (ages 2, 3 & 4). I have to admit I was a little anxious that it might be more difficult keeping them entertained now that they are older and more active, but they were great and we had alot of fun.

You might recognize the little girl as one of my models on the Annette Reversible Sundress and the boys were my models for the Betsey/Joey Shorts Pattern.

I keep a crate of "craft" supplies to use when I have children. They love it and it keeps them entertained. We made paper chains, paper airplanes and a little bit of a mess but it cleaned up quickly when we were done.

Later before bedtime, we went out on the courtyard for a snack of cheerios and milk and some bubble fun.

After that we watched Stuart 2 on tv and all three fell asleep.
