Monkeying Around

Over the weekend Chris and I offered to watch our nieces so that mommy and daddy could have an entire night to themselves--kid free.  Of course their response was something like,  "What day?  They'll be there!"   We had watched them overnight before, but not with all three of them.  As you can see, we survived!  We both had a really good time.  The older girls were especially excited to play the Wii and Addie was just excited in general (as always, hehe).  Here are some pictures from our "sleepover" :)

  Betsy and Katie playing baseball (Betsy's fave)

Playing "Tumblin' Monkeys", a game I got at Meijer for $5
around Christmas.  It turned out to be a big hit!
 

Hanging with Addie before bedtime.  The older girls slept in our guest bedroom and she slept in her pack-in-play in a different bedroom.  It took her awhile to fall sleep, but after a few tears and lots of talking (to herself) she was in la-la land... but only til 6:30am. 


Playing with some of my old Barbie's



We really enjoyed having them and were reminded of how much work kids can be, even for just one night, but what a blessing they are!
