Babysitting!

(Please click on the photo for more pictures.)

While Jason and Jo took Zach up to a going away party for her sister, Michele, Jake, and I got to hang out with Elle. The kids play really well together and had a blast playing with blocks and then watching Dora. Jake was very bummed when it was bedtime and Michele had to take Elle back across the street to get her settled in. There are a few pictures if you follow the link above. Most show them having a good time, but they also serve as proof that she was in one piece when she left here!

Along with the photos, we had a few videos queued up.

This video shows Jake singing a song when his playtime outside was cut short by a storm. We just finally found out what he might have been singing from his daycare teacher, but no one is sure where the "ding dong" comes from.


This video shows Jake playing with an RC car I got awhile ago. We usually share the controller so he can make it go forward, but I steer. This time, as is usual now, he wanted to do everything all by himself. It took a lot to get him to try to steer it and make it go forward. Most of the time, he only wanted to make it go straight into an obstacle or a road, then he'd send me off to chase it down.


This is a little clip of Jake and Elle playing with Michele. They are both very good at talking now, but it's still funny to hear them speaking in sentences.
