We had a great Saturday! Our friends from Palo Alto had an appointment, so we drove up to hang out and babysit their almost-two-year old K. K is an awesome little kid - we joke that it is his fault we had a baby because he was such a cool, easy-going baby - he made the whole parenting thing look easy :) After we all hung out for a little bit, Jeremy and I were on our own with both kids. K is actually a HUGE fan of Jeremy, and they had a lot of fun playing. Of course, Phoebe did her best to interject herself and K was for the most part really sweet and understanding. He did have to remind Phoebe of the rules occasionally, I think he thought the whole "baby" excuse wasn't exactly a valid reason for not following the rules better. Despite Phoebe's cavalier disregard for rules, K was very sweet to her - he was always giving her toys or trying to show her how to do stuff. One of the cutest things he did was to get down and crawl around so Phoebe could chase him. Sadly, Phoebe does not have a great attention span, so she was always quitting the game in the middle. We had a really great time babysitting and getting to see our friends. It is fun to get a little preview of what is in store for us as Phoebe gets older (well, a rough idea anyway). This experience did really reinforce the notion that Phoebe will DEFINITELY be maintaining her only child status for a LONG LONG time. We are NOT ready for two kids!!!
