Parenting 101

So today has been one interesting day. We are babysitting some awesome kiddos today! They were in our wedding and we are really close to them! Anyway it has been a lesson for Greg and I. I was their nanny last summer so I was with them pretty much everyday. I know how to deal with their brotherly sisterly "love" and know the ways to keep it under control. Greg on the other hand has not dealt with many children and is still having issues with putting their needs first. Its tough because we know we aren't ready for kids. We are too selfish and we know it. But some events came up that made it hard for their mom to get here so we are now keeping them a little longer than expected. We took them to dinner and now they are watching Alvin and the Chipmunks, laying on a blow up mattress in our living room.

Kids are funny! This weekend I have somehow convinced Greg that we only want one child thanks to Lacie and Drew and their constant fighting. I have always wanted one but he wanted two. After today he has no complaints about only having one. I have to agree with him! But it has been interesting. Hopefully their mom will be here tonight! If not they will get waffles in the morning and they will see her then. Its funny how I am taking things from other parents on how I will be a mom! I can't wait to be a mom. It will be the most difficult thing I have ever done but that is what it is all about I guess!! Anyway Greg and I will continue to learn and one day in the future, not to near but future, we will become parents and it will be the best thing in the world! I can't wait!!
