My first day was this past Monday. It went.....well? I only had the youngest...the Mom told me that normally wouldn't happen, but to take this opportunity to get to know her and play with her alll day so she wouldn't miss her old nanny.
That little girl...is a very cute hand full. As the with all kids, the things that come out of her mouth kill me...i feel like i need to keep a book on hand to write the priceless things she says down...like telling me (Prince Charming) to dump Cinderella and go on Match.com to look for a better gf....she also told me my Prince Charming voice was not deep enough and to change it.
Her parents said shes a big tv watcher..but to TRY to get her to keep it to a minimum...but i didn't know how much that meant really...I let her watch two half hour shows bc she told me that's all she felt like doing at one point in the day...I asked her how much her old babysitter let her watch and she said "a lot" but she could have just been saying that....When I told her we should go outside and play she said her "back hurt too much" so she couldn't...hehe...but overall- i guess it went fine..their puppy peed on the floor like 12 times (while the mom was sill there)...and like 2 times while i was there, so i guess that's goood??
Today I had 2 girls...the oldest is still away at camp. It was a much better day than yesterday. BC i had the middle one there to tell me what Lauren usually was allowed to do and not to do. We did all kinds of stuff...we must have played 4 diff games per hour. Thats a lot of games to think up and pull off.
I did a ton of gymnastics so thats good...I will at least be getting my exercise and flexibility back :)
OHH!! P.S.
wE gOt TiKi torches yesterday!! I have wanted TiKi torches my WHOLE life!! i think they are SO super magical!!!
P.P.S. Rambo ate 18 ant traps today b4 we could even set them out. Good.
OMG that Prince Charming quote, how priceless! Glad to hear everything is going good :)
ReplyDeleteSo cute!! you have to love what kids try to get away with. Just think, at least you can go home to recuperate after the day is done lol. But you better go work on your prince charming voice hahaha
ReplyDelete~That*s so true Marci, you*re RIGHT! i DO get to go home!! wow...now i'm so thankful after thinking about it like that. BUT...i guess if they were my kids i also wouldn*t feel as MUCH pressure to keep them active and having the best time they*ve EVER had every minute of every day..there would be some relax time too...lol
