Someone help this child....

My Mom had the task of watching Miss Kendyl a few weeks ago on a Saturday afternoon. I was already planning to spend the day canning and freezing lots of stuff from the garden, and my mom offered to come over and help. She and Kendyl showed up after lunch and we got to work. Sorta. I got down Kendies toy basket, and she happily entertained herself playing with toys and motoring around the kitchen, eating green bean ends, carrot peelings and whatever else she could find under my kitchen table (keep breathing Kim), as well as destroying my cookbook shelf and eating my recipes. She also found great joy in throwing canning rings ALL over the kitchen floor.

The time came for her to have a bottle and a little snooze, signaled by much whining and fussing. My mom, of course, was ALL over this task, because we all know that napping and sitting in front of the TV are two of her favorite hobbies. Because of the fact that my niece is the worlds worst napper, I figured they would be back in a very short amount of time. Hmmmm. Boy, was I wrong.

After 2 hours, I decided I better go have a look, to see what the heck those two were up to....AND.....this is what I found:

HI. LAIR. EEE. UUUSSSS. I tell ya, these two were SACKED out. I am sure glad that the baby didn't slide down to the floor, but I think she woke up with a LITTLE neck ache. Good bonding right there I tell ya. Anyway, I proceeded to wake them both up, so that my sister MIGHT actually be able to get her to bed that night...considering it was 4:30 at that point! This would be why my sister and I are always a little hesitant when my Mom says she will babysit!!!!!!!


She continued to play with the boys for awhile, and they always have fun putting her in, on and around things. She is sitting on the Winnie the Pooh chair that was Jared's as a baby.
So, Kim and Sean, in case you were wondering, this is what your daughter did while you were gone....we accomplished ALOT....what is your excuse!??!?! :)
