Adventures in Babysitting

My Brother John and his wife Brooke asked us to babysit Friday night so they could go on a "date" to the Temple. I keep telling Brooke that if she really wants Haws and I to start having children soon, she will have to stop asking us to babysit for them! Actually... I love watching these little guys. It is a lot of work though, and it really makes me to admire a mother who has more than one child under 5, or any child for that matter! Having Haws around helps a ton since Joshua is obsessed with him. He is at the age where he is trying to push the limits. "Time for Bed Joshua"... "I want a drink, can I read another book? One more??" I am sure you can imagine. Luke was having a bi-polar sort of night. In between grunts and whines, there was laughing and jumping in his new jumper. He is such a cutie!!! I love them both so much... can you blame me?

Bye Mommy! Bye Daddy!
Luke was quite happy after his bath.






Haws and Joshua in Montana... what a pair!
Just wanted to throw this shot in because it is such a typical scene.

What a great sister you are to help out! It's true, babysitting does make you think twice about starting your own family. (Babysitting or being called to the ward nursery!) How fun that you and Haws are so close to your little nephews. You guys are too cute!
