2009_04_13 Monday

The JDHs hustled up to NY at noon to babysit Steve/Vicky's kids for the next 24 or so hours. Their nanny's husband is having heart issues, so I took care of them today. It was a bit chaotic until I got my groove with three kids and Djuka. I found out that Jonathan likes bologna, which is also Catherine's favorite lunch. He had a bit of a hard time with his nap. I had him in S/V's room, which wasn't all that dark. So, I tried putting him in their bed (which Dave had done before). The next thing I knew, there was a rattling at the door. He had slid down the bed and was trying to escape. So, back into the p-n-p with that escape artist!!
We colored Easter books from PopPop, we went on a short walk, and we played for awhile in the backyard (not sure that was a good idea since it was fertilized earlier that day). That helped get some energy out. I threw dinner in the oven, Steve got home, and Vicky wasn't too far behind him. After dinner and dessert, the kids went to bed, and the adults split a bottle of wine. Boy was that nice. Then we all retired. I slept on the sofa rather than pulling out a bed for one night (Steve built up an anti-sun fort for us). Slept totally fine.
