WHEN MOM'S AWAY THE BABES WILL PLAY

January 23, 2014

Jessica, Reece and I drove down to ST GEORGE to tend Erin and Tyler's kids while they vacationed in THAILAND! Jackson, Rylee and Channing really are GREAT KIDS! But it was hard! Me and Jessica were exhausted. Thank goodness Erin had the kids on a great BEDTIME routine to really make it easy for us. I felt so bad leaving Jessica on her own for 2 days to do it all on her own until Debbie could make it. I stayed from Thursday to Monday. We had FUN while we were there though.  We DANCED, we played with BUBBLES, SIDEWALK CHALK, went for a WALK, rode BIKES, (the weather was so great!!) had GAME DAY where we played 2 of my favorites, the FLOUR GAME and the CANDYBAR GAME! We had movie night and watched DISPICABLE ME TWO, and we had UNDER THE SEA theme day. Jessica worked hard to make everything FUN for the kids. She is such an AWESOME AUNT! It was hard for me to leave cuz I really LOVE those KIDS, and I felt bad for JESSICA. But I'll tell you what, that CHANNING and I really BONDED! I love that kid! He is so LOVEY, AND CUDDLY! I have never met a kid like that in my life. I know he gets it from Erin but he is even more CUDDLY than Erin was. It killed me to leave him and I miss him so much! Man! I could just eat him up! Take a look at some of our pictures:

                                                   Rylee, Channing, Jessica and Reece

                       Channing loved riding this scooter and his other little bike.

                                            They played with tons of toys in the tub!

                                                              Cute little Rylee

Darling little Channing. I love those eyes!

 

                                

 Rylee showing Reece some awesome dance moves. Boy, do these girls love to dance!

                                                  Performing on the fireplace for us

Jackson's got some cool moves, and Rylee loves to sing, dance and perform.

                                                                  Blowing Bubbles

 

Love this little girl. I forgot to mention that it took me forever to get two big pieces of gum out of her hair! I was so thankful we didn't have to cut it. It was horrible!!

                                                                  Some of our artwork

                                        Very serious about his artwork....future Picasso?

                        Reece loved playing with chalk. Erin has these cool chalk holders.

                    I would draw something and Rylee would color it all in for me.

 We went on a walk on this beautiful day. It totally felt like Spring! I didn't want to go home!

                            Playing the Flour Game. Jackson strategically makes a slice.

                       Jessie lost! She had to pick up the dime with her teeth in all of that flour!

 

 Rylee takes a turn. She takes a big slice and makes a bunch of cracks for us!

 Jackson loved losing! He thought it was so funny to get all covered in flour!

 Even Channing played and got a little flour on his nose but he didn't like that part!

                                                             I was next to lose!

 Then we played the Candy Bar Game where you have to roll doubles to get a stab with a fork to try to unwrap and get as much chocolate as you can until the next person rolls doubles. I did pretty good at this game!

 What? 4 kids in the tub! That was a little insane. Jess did a great job of washing everyone's hair!

 We decorated Erin's house for an Under the Sea theme day. The kids thought this was awesome!

Right before I left Reece and Channing thought it would be fun to blow bubbles with their lips on Erin's glass windows. It was so funny and loud that I had to get it on video too!
