First all day adventures with the babysitters!!!!



Well, does this give you any idea on how Elizabeth's day went when my sister and her husband babysat for the day??????
We had a busy Saturday with a baby shower for Jennifer and then a wedding later in the day for both Jennifer & Patrick to attend.
My sister and her husband graciously accepted the request to babysit so we could attend these events, thanks Janet and Randy!! I have to admit I was a little apprehensive about leaving Elizabeth, and actually had a nervous stomach most of Saturday morning. This is really the first time we have left her for any big chunk of time. We did go to a movie in November for a couple of hours, and our neighbor across the street watched her on Good Friday for about 6 hours. But this was the first time we were literally away all day. We left at 12 noon, and returned home around 11 pm. Elizabeth did not miss us at all, and we kept very entertained and busy with her aunt and uncle.
I think Janet and Randy also had a great time, but I know they were exhausted by the time they got home!!! However, we appreciate the babysitting services and hope they are up for another day in the future. If you are wondering-Elizabeth never cried, grumped or whined for us. She ate her meals like a champ, went to bed without a fuss and let Aunt Janet wash her hair too!!! Patrick and I have decided she hates us now, and wants to live with Aunt Janet and Uncle Randy full time!!! That will never happen but she clearly enjoyed herself and didn't miss us a bit!!
We are gearing up for the 4th of July. Jennifer has to work for the weekend and Monday-boo hiss! Oh well, as Nike says-Just do it!!!
Until next time............................
