This weekend

I hope everyone had a great weekend.
Steve and I babysat for my sisters friend yesterday. We were supposed to have both of her kids, an 8 year old and a 1 year old, but it turned out that we only had the 1 year old. My sister, her friend and her friends husband all went to a concert.

After our babysitting stint Steve announced that he would be happy if he never had a baby brother or sister..babies are not his favorite..they cry and they cry loud.

It was fine, no real problems. The poor thing ust did not know us and it took a little while for him to get used to us...after about 30-40 minutes and a short nap he was good to go. They picked him up at about midnight.

Today we went to the zoo with Stephanie and her dad. We spend 8+ hours with them today. We all had a good time. It was nice not to feel self conscious about everything I said or did. It was very comfortable.

We were talking about how kids are so literal and how they don't get sayings or sarcasm...things we take for granted they just don't understand what we are really trying to say.

One time he said to Stephanie..."Hey lets make like a banana and split"

Next thing he knew she came back in a room with a banana split in two..."Here dad, here is your half."

So cute.

I hope everyone has a great week.
