New "job" :)

So remember at the beginning of the year when I started watching this baby for some extra money...and to "try-out" having two kids?? It went alright...Klous had fun...and it was good extra money for us!!! But then I got pregnant and sick and tired and moody...and decided I needed to focus on my little family for a bit!! I felt HORRIBLE backing out, especially since there was only a little over a month of school left...but I was feeling terrible...well here is Klous & little Charlotte back in January when I started...cute huh!!!
Well school started again today...and I've really been thinking about little Charlotte and her mom wondering if they needed help again. We're in DIRE need of "extra" money right now...so I figured I could sacrifice a bit again and help out!!! So at 6:30 this morning I was up and ready to watch this adorable little girl!! She had a tough time at first...you know being left with a practical stranger, separation anxiety from Mommy, and not sure where she was...it was tough at first. But after her nap and some breakfast...we were good to go!! Klous had even more fun this time with the "baby" because she's more interactive now!! She scoots, plays, squeals, and laughs at him...so he was having a great time!!! Here they are playing together today...so cute...and so big!!!
I guess we'll see how it all goes...I told her mom I'd help out for sure until this baby comes...then we'll have to see how I do!! Gotta recover and get used to having a newborn in the house again, but I sure am grateful for an "easy" way of being able to make some extra money for now!! At least I don't have to leave the house for a REAL job!! I like MY job!!

Babysitting is a good way to earn some extra money. If I didn't already have 4 kids, I'd do it. Good luck with her she looks cute.

It sounds like that babysitting will go well! Now that Charlotte is older she can play with Klous keeping them both entertained. Ava is always better when she has a friend to play with! Good luck!
