Steven and Carrie went to usher at the theatre in our town a few blocks away tonight sooo i got to babysit alll dayy. plus SURPRISE! Holden didn't have school today. so it's been a looooong day. aye carrumba.
well tonight was spent CLEANING. Steven told me not to clean anything, that the kids had to do it. so i just directed them haha and i swept all the floors so it's not like i made them my slaves or anything...
they did a good job. the whole house is clean! idk why, but they always listen to me, but not their parents. well i shouldn't say always but I'm just good at talking them into doing things hah and they go to bed super easily with me. it's amazing! mackenna was in bed by 8 and Holden by 9. woo!
we listened to music as we cleaned then read dr. seuss books :)
oh and mackenna was jumping on the couch (they're not allowed to jump on the couches anymore) and she said "i have my jammies on, so i can jump on the couch! see, my feet arent on the couch!" she has footie pajamas on, so she thought it was ok haha! she's a smart baby! but still not allowed to jump.
i also think i like them more when i babysit them at night than when i watch them during the day. haha!
after i tucked mackenna in, she almost started crying, then said "i wanna give you a kiss!" :) soo cuteee.
and then me and holden read another dr. seuss together then he came in my room while i packed my stuff fot the weekend. we listened to music and talked. in the dark--no electricity, remember? i couldn't think of anyy outfits for this weekend and i said "i already wore all my cute outfits this week!" so he told me to just wear them again. i explained to him that girls like me don't do that. we can't wear the same outfit or even the same shirt in like a 2 week span. i'm not sure if he got the concept haha.
anyway, we're going to D.C. this weekend. staying with their friends. so it'll be really boring for me unfortunately. and i'm not gonna bring my computer...so my 30 day picture thing will be on hold until monday.
i suppose that's it for today.
hasta la monday!

prince and princess
mackenna and holden are NOT good models. i don't know how they're going to do a REAL photoshoot when we go to Boston in a couple weeks...
anyway, i made them these crowns last week :) they don't really stay on their heads so they had to stay completely still when i was trying to take a picture of them, but they just ended up standing really awkwardly. haha oh well. look how awesome my valentines decorations are! I'm so talented. they're house would be so sad looking if it weren't for me ;)

sledding day 2
right when Carrie got home around 5, we bundled up and went to our awesome hill to sled some more! it was already getting dark out. after a few runs, Carrie left to get food from the Amish market for dinner. Holden accidentally let the air plug thing open. so our sled deflated. but i tried snowboarding with it and was pretty successful :) then we decided to just roll around in the snow. and then eat some of it. and then some random guy tried to throw a snowball at us, but it hit a tree instead. so Holden yelled at them. and he thought he saw them getting more snowballs ready to ambush us, so we hid behind a snow wall and started getting snowballs ready for them. but they never came. so we threw them at each other. then rolled down the hill and tried to do some cartwheels.
all of my clothes were frozen. my gloves, my jeans, my shirt. plus my toes and knees and legs and butt. so sweet. me and Holden agreed that it felt like we peed our pants and we had bad wedgies. even sweeter.
when we got home i got right in the hot shower :)
luckily, Holden has actually been good with me since i got back...which has only been a week, but it feels like a month. but, he still has his SUPER ANNOYING moments...just not with me :)
