Henry

Last night Stepan and I babysat for Henry whose parents are going through birthing classes in anticipation of his sister who should arrive in late October (I think). He's a great little boy - he wants to do everything and he wants to do it all at the same time. It seemed like he would laugh at anything...me asking if his dog had black hair....Stepan and I whistling along to the tune he was marching to....knocking down block towers...playing with the toys we have. Apparently he has such a good time when he gets watched at somebody else's house, he never wants to go home at the end of the evening. When his dad showed up at 9:30pm, he showed impressive persistence in loudly proclaiming "I DON'T WANT TO GO" and "I WANT TO WATCH MORE MOVIES AND MORE AND MORE AND MORE MOVIES". He was sad and angry and very adorable. I hope he gets to come visit again sometime.

You missed his comments on the ride home when he proclaimed that I wasn't his parent, you were, and told me, "You ruined my day, daddy." Guess this is good preparation for the teenage years. Many thanks again for watching him while we tried to remember how to do this whole birth thing.

Hey, if you are into babysitting....I have two boys-- a 5-yr old and 1-yr-old...and no family here.

Jfer, you must be swamped with wedding plans. Best of luck to you and Stepan! I wish I could be there, but I'll certainly be thinking of you all.

Perhaps she's decided that as a Riha, she's not going to do this damn blog site any more. :-)

Buwahahaha!

If that doesn't get her to post an entry, nothing will.
