I quit my job as a nanny. Just thought I'd let you all know. Thanks for reading my blog and I'm sorry for ending it so soon :)

LET ME SQUISH IT FIRST!
One thing you must remember when you are a nanny is that you are, first and foremost, the hired help.
I went out last night and realized that instead of perfume, I smelled of baby wipes.
The only stories I have to tell involve kids. And more often than not: their bodily functions.
If you open my purse you will find: an ipod, a cell phone, some make up, toys, diapers, wipes, bandaids, neosporin...the list goes on.
funny, to me that sounds like a mom. Fortunately, even after all that, I can give the kids back at the end of the day!
QUOTE OF THE DAY: Me: Are you gonna eat that?
Reid: LET ME SQUISH IT FIRST!
Me: *backs off slowly*

For Pat
Well, I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while, but I've been on vacation :)
12 hours in the car with 3 kids under the age of 5 was a bit much, but it's been totally worth it!
Unfortunately, Mike got really really sick the second day, so we ended up stopping at the kid's Aunt Cindy's (Cheryl's sister) house. What started as a boring pitstop where I had to sleep on the couch ended with a surprise trip to IMAX in the middle of the night to see Avatar.
And the kids woke me up yesterday with a heart-shaped box of chocolate for Valentine's day <3
Well, I have lots and lots of pictures to add, but I'll have to do that later.
Thanks for reading!

an angry dad
Today is just not going my way.
Mike is mad at the kids, so he's in a foul mood as it is. And on top of that, since I live here and spend so much time with the kids, I think he's just kinda lumped me in with the kids in his mind, so he's mad at me too.
I haven't done anything, and I'm really not worried, I'm just frustrated.
And, tomorrow we're leaving for AZ on a road trip. Just me, Mike, and the kids. I'm not really looking forward to 12 hours with them in an enclosed space.
So I'm spending today trying to get ready for the trip, and trying to figure out how to unclog a toilet when there are no plungers in the entire house.
I need to get out of this house ASAP.
Like I said, good days and bad days. Today falls in the last category.
Update: I just threw up. I am not a happy camper right now.

Bitten
If you have a bug bite, you put cream on in.
If you are bitten by a radioactive spider, you turn into spider man.
What do you do if you're bitten by a three year old?
Today was a hard day to say the least. Summer bit me. And drew blood.
The kids didn't nap, so, neither did I.
I don't have much else to report, so I'll just post some cute pictures instead.

A tad overdue
I realized that I had forgotten to post the picture I had my mom take of me and the kids my first day here. So, here it is!
So, tonight Cheryl and Mike are going out for Mike's birthday. They're having Jessica, a girl who lives down the street, come to babysit the kids. That way I have an extra pair of hands and I can go to sleep when I please. I'm excited because she's about my age, and, let's face it: I have no life here yet! Here's hoping we'll get along!
