Brothers

Andrew and I were able to spend some quality time with our adorable nephews this week. We got to watch two of them while their mom spend some much needed time with her husband. We had so much fun watching movies, playing games (mostly Wii) and answering lots of questions! I love how interested these boys are in everything. Their questions make me laugh, make me remember and make me love them sooo much!!! Stuff like, "could you jump that high when you were my age?", " Are you a zoom kid?", "Do you eat egg whites?", "What would you do if an alien landed by your head?" and even "I know how babies come out, but how do they get in?" (Emily, I'm leaving that one up to you). :)
Andrew and I have found a new appreciation for mothers with several young children. Its hard work and somebody has to do it! :) My sista-in-law does it very well! Her 4 kids are smart, sweet and alot of fun! I am very impressed with how well they behaved all week! I just love them!!

You are so sweet. You don't know how much it means that you were able to watch the kids. I knew they would have a great time with you and that you would both do a great job. Thank you sooooooooooooo much for everything. I love you both. And just so you know your not supposed to try and make me cry.

Sounds like you guys had a blast. Its so funny when kids get to that stage where they are so inquisitive. Gracie's at that stage where everything is "But Why?" The other day she said really nervously, "Oh man, my dad's gonna kill me!" Then later that day we were watching little mermaid and I realized that's where she got it from. Kids are so funny and they really do keep you on your toes when they start to pick up on things you do and say. :)
