What would it be like to have twins...

Mason's lil friend Maeli came to play with us on Saturday. Her parents won tickets to the duck game and asked if we would watcher her for them. Micah being the more conservative of the the two of us said wait and lets discuss this... I how ever am more like a dictator and decreed quickly that Maeli would spend the afternoon with Mason! On a quick side note; this was her first time with out her parents, and she was just learning the bottle! So Maeli came to play and we had fun up until that 20 min mark when she realized her parents were not hiding in the other room (she and I searched for them), and decided to vocalize her anger to us. Maeli has a healthy set of lungs and she shared her talent with us until she fell asleep... (for over and hour) Then our poor poor lil friend woke up and couldn't/wouldn't take the bottle, I felt sick over how frustrated she was and so at half time her parents called to check on her(after she had cried herself to sleep, again)... I explained the situation and they rush back to finish the game with us and Maeli... The End!




She and Mason play together quite often, and usually she likes me... its a whole new ball game with out momma around!

She was happy on the floor with Mason until he rolled away to watch TV and wouldn't play with her any more (apparently, boys are insensitive even this young)

This picture didn't make it on to the side pics, but it makes me realize how incredibly big my lil boy is getting! His lil personality is coming out more and more each day and let me tell you... he has that Clinger stubbornness proudly passed down from generation to generation, what a gift to your posterity... attributes of a MULE!

I offered to watch another couples two boys and their baby cried the entire time. My arms hurt so bad for the next two days from holding the little guys for 4 solid hours. I hear you sister! The word verification for this comment is "reekin" hum - is that a hint? :-)

That is so frustrating when you're watching someone elses kid and they cry the whole time. Not fun! And yes what a joy clinger stubborness is!
