first let me say, dont worry, im not pregnant im only 15 for goodness sake but im an avid babysitter. and by avid,i mean if i go a day without babysitting, i must be on my deathbed(even when i was hobbling around on crutches with a sprained ankle,they had to push me out of their house to stop me from babysitting).
so tonight, i was babysitting for 2 *adorable* girls. Kelly, whos 2,and Kate, who's almost 6 months old. so the instructions said to putKate in her crib, asleep or awake, at 7:15 and turn the mobile on, andhope she goes to sleep. Kelly, they said, was exhausted, so she shouldbe in bed by 7:30, 8 at the latest. well kate fell asleep in my arms ata little before 7, so i put her in her crib with no problems. seeing askelly was soooo tired, i got her ready for bed at 7:15. she had a fit.it took me 5 minutes to get her upstairs, and even then she was cryingand screaming for mommy. so then by 7:30, stories are read, kelly's inher crib half-laying down, and still crying, and kate has woken up. soi go downstairs for a few minutes to see if they'll calm down. theydidnt. to make a long story short, i was running up and down the stairstrying to get them to go to sleep. I called the parents, who were about15 minutes away, and asked them when they would be home, and they saidjust to take both girls downstairs and put on a movie to calm them downand that they'd be home in 15 mins to put them to sleep. I tell you,those girls will be the death of me
