Adventures in Baby-Sitting

As you probably know, I've been watching Gwen for a long time now (two years in May!) and I just love her to pieces.  I have also been watching a new baby, Kendal, for a couple of months (she is four months old now), part-time.  In a couple of weeks, I'll also start watching a little boy part-time and then his baby sister after she arrives this summer.  The house is getting full and crazy but I pretty much love it!

I'm really enjoying my time with Gwennie because she is so fun right now.  Yes, there are tantrums and pouty lips and a little attitude, but she says the funniest and sweetest things!

GWEN: Ahda! [What she calls me, short for "Aunt Lala."]
ME: What?
(Gwen walks over to me and puts her head on my lap.)
GWEN: I love you.

GWEN: What's that sound?
ME: I don't hear anything.
(Gwen walks over to the window and looks outside.)
GWEN: I see a dinosaur!

ME: Let's change your diaper.  Are you poopy?
GWEN: Uh-huh.
ME: No, you're not!
GWEN: It's funny?
ME: You tricked me!
GWEN: I want to go trick or treat.

I have way too much fun with her.  I still can't believe I get paid to have such a blast!
