Ok, so after reviewing my last two posts, I decided that I’ve been rambling and talking about nothing important at all. So, I figured I’d talk a little about my day.  

   I babysit twin boys who are almost 6 months old. I started babysitting them when they were almost two months old. I watch them anywhere from 30 to 40 hours a week, while their mom is going to school. And, I love them!

   I’ve learned a lot about babies since I started watching them. Mostly I’ve learned about caring for them, and some good lessons in patience! I’m not the most patient person, so it’s been something I’ve had to work on.

   Watching twins, by myself, has been somewhat of a challenge. I can’t really hold both at once when they’re crying. Making bottles can be a bit tricky when they’re both hungry and letting me know of that fact. Although, lately watching them became so much easier after I started putting them down for regular naps. Makes a world of difference!

   I start babysitting at 8 in the morning, and don’t get home till evening time. Anyway, that’s my job. 

  Today while I babysat I brought my camera along and took pictures of the boys! I got some good pics of them. Lately Ryan’s discovered his thumb and loves sticking all his fingers in his mouth. (and they both love to drool.)  :)

 I finished a book I started awhile back, called “Entering Normal” written by Anne Leclaire. It took me awhile to get used to the style of the book, but after that I thought it was a pretty good read. It’s a drama written about two different women, one who is in her 40’s and the other in her 20’s. They’ve both experienced and are experiencing different (sorrows?) in life and end up leaning on each other. I thought the book was pretty good, and it kept me interested to the end. It was hard to put down sometimes, although for me, I love reading! So it doesn’t take much for me to not be able to put a book down.

p.s. I don't recommend Entering Normal for kids, it's a bit of an adult book.
