Taste of Parenthood


I now have a greater respect for stay at home moms. We babysat three little girls starting early Thursday morning, until Sunday afternoon. They were so cute. Nate and I watched more little girl movies in those four days than most can say in a lifetime.

I think Nate's going to adapt quite well to the whole parent thing when we have kids. He was the one who shot out of bed both nights at four in the morning to rock the baby back to sleep. He was also the one who insisted on rocking her to sleep every night. It was cute to see how attached he got to her.

You guys are the best for babysitting and letting my family have a kid free vacation. You guys were awesome and the girls loved you! I just love seeing pics of them. I may be biased but they are the cutest girls ever.

p.s. I am driving the last stretch into calgary right now. Talk to you soon!

Modern technology is great ey! My dads computer gets internet anywhere he has cell service so I really can be driving and on the internet. Anyhoo we are taking him to the aiport so I wont have internet or phone for a bit but as soon as I do I will call you! Love you lots and miss you already. This little adventure is kind of scary but I will survive!

Pretty dang cute if you ask me. Ifyou thought that nate was cute with the kids wait till they are your own you will be in heaven. There is nothing like watching a good daddy with his babies.

Nate was really hopping out of bed at 4 in the morning to play Call of Duty 4 at my house.
