The project my daughters did with me!

Here's something I'm rather proud of. . . I have raised two successful babysitters. When they were starting out babysitting, I was as nervous as they were! What if something happens? Will they have to cook? What if the kids are hard to handle? I went over instructions with them right until they walked out the door. I canceled my plans and stayed home in case they called for help. When they got home, I'd want all the details and then go over what to do for next time. They got better and better with each job and my nerves calmed down when I realized they were great babysitters who knew how to keep kids safe AND have fun with them at the same time. Hearing from friends and neighbors what awesome babysitters my daughters are made me so proud!   But now they are getting older and getting different jobs, and spending more weekend nights with friends rather than babysitting, they're ready to pass the torch on to younger babysitters. We had the idea to put together a guide/kit ...

we would like to take a minute to thank our sponsors. . .

Who's that sexy trucker you ask? Oh, that's the same old hubby just hairier! Thanks to Hale Centre Theatre who gave him a part in their upcoming Fiddler on the Roof. Yours truly will be playing the butcher, Laser Wolf, in the MWF night performances running from February 16th till mid-April! Get your tickets now, if you like hairy men and old musicals like I do, you won't want to miss it! Lucy would like to thank Jell-O Pudding Cups. I think she's vying for the Jell-o Pudding spokesperson gig. . . move over Bill Cosby. And what products am I endorsing this month? First, Clomid! I won't bore you with all the horrid details, but it worked! We're expecting baby #2 in early August. Wahoo! Second, Phenergan , I now feel sick only 20% of the time rather than 95% of the time. Thank you, modern medicine, for helping us get pregnant and then for helping us deal with being pregnant!

happy new year!

My New Year's Eve party hat turned into a snowman hat the next day. . . And yes, he's booti-ful from both the front AND the back. . . Happy New Year!
