Adventures in babysitting

I adore my nephew- this is nothing new.  I babysat him for a few hours Friday night so Rodney and Christine could go to a work function.  Matt was playing poker, so it was just the two of us.  He was well behaved, as usual, but I was sweating bullets because he’s allergic to cats. 

Gulp.

Molly was locked in her room the whole time, but I was still paranoid about the dander around the house.  I didn’t get the chance to coat the downstairs in Febreeze Allergen Reducer before he came over, but thankfully he didn’t have a reaction.  So, what does Aunt Beth do when she gets to babysit her favorite toddler?  Take pictures, of course!

This one’s for Mom:

I have never gotten my picture taken, and I have NO idea how to pose:

web-add-0962.jpgYeah, I know I’m cute.

web-add-0977.jpgWhat do you mean “no?!?”

Edited to add:  He can say my name now!  Well, it’s more like Bef, as opposed to Beth, but hey, I’ll take it.  Oh, and I also got an “I love you” Friday too.  So sweet.  😀

This could be dangerous

So, a few months ago, Mountain Dew had this thing where you could go onto their website and create a new flavor.  They’re selling the top 3 flavors, and then everyone gets to vote, and one becomes a permanent flavor.  I just tried the one called Supernova.  It’s Strawberry Melon with Ginseng….and it’s REALLY freaking good.  Matt didn’t like it too much though.  It’s rather sweet.  I could EASILY get addicted.  

Newest Scrapbook Pages

Here are my newest scrapbook pages. Addison and Tybee Island.  Everything’s from Miss Crow:

I need to upload the pics from the 5K, so I can start making scrapbook pages of those too.  Matt can protest all he wants, but I will make pages of him running.  I’m super proud of him, and of Jen and Mallen.  I sure as hell didn’t get off my ass and do it.
