Adventures in Babysitting

We're friends & go to church with a couple that had a precious baby boy earlier this year.
His name is Joshua & he just turned 5 months old.
Right after school ended, we offered to do some babysitting & give them a break for some "couple time."

Things have been pretty hectic for me w/ grad school, but we did get the week of the 4th off; so upon returning from Decatur (w/out the big boys who wanted to stay longer), Tim, Tanner, & I babysat Baby Joshua!!

We kept him Friday & Saturday.
I learned it doesn't take long to forget what to do with a baby. . .
It was a quite an adventure!! :)

Our first stop was the mall.
2 little ones is lots of work!
(It's been awhile since we had 2 little at the same time!)
Somebody was tuckered out
Tanner & Joshua are already good buddies from church.
He couldn't wait to get him to the house to play!
That night, we went to his mom's surprise 30th b'day party.
She was very surprised!!
Tanner loved "holding" Josh
This was right before bath & bedtime . . .

Then we spent lots of um, "quality time" with Joshua
during the night. :)
We were too sleepy to get any pics during those few hours,
but we learned that our bodies are definitely not still
conditioned for that!

Did I mention how much Tanner loved holding Joshua?!?
He asked CONSTANTLY!!!
And no one could make Josh laugh like Tanner!

Fun Times!!!
Maybe this was good preparation for number 4 . . .
What do you think??? Ha!!
