Day Four: Play, play, play, and play some more

Day four came and so did the little girl I babysit.

She is precious and sweet,

but she is two

and when she is put in a room with my two year old they can get into all kinds of messy mischief in the blink of an eye.

Seriously, I do not dare turn my backs on them.

Not for a second

and tasks that I could do in the same room as them,

like pick up toys,

straighten up the couch, etc,

are completely futile

because they will undo anything I do faster than I can redo it.

I did some dusting in the living room, 

but mostly I played 

I played dress up

I played legos

I played toddler "hide and seek"

(That's where you throw a blanket over them and pretend you can't find them).

I took turns flying them around the room

(A free workout!)

And when the day was over and her dad came to pick her up

I.was.exhausted.

I threw together a pasta dinner with whatever crap I could find in my cabinets and retreated into a good book, while Dr A took over watching the kids for the couple of hours before bed. (They were tired too, so that meant playing video games with them- a real hardship.
Honestly I was too tired to even care about all the cleaning I didn't do.
