The Last Day...

Finally...
Today is the last day I will be watching these little babies!
I love them so much but I think 10 days of babysitting is enough.
I have had a pretty good time with Bella (2 yr.) and Serenity (1 yr.) although I feel a little (lot) sleep deprived.... haha...
I'm pretty sure these little girls miss their parents so much.
At least I know what it feels like to be a full time mom, which I am definitely not ready for.
I think I could do it, but I'm not willing... yet (for a long time).
Don't get me wrong, Babies are awesome but you get to a certain point,
to where your just like, "Ok, I'm so done!"
I cannot tell you how many times I have said that.
This journey has been quite stressful and frustrating, but besides all of this ruckus,
(which is still going on as I speak)
I am so glad that I did this!
I would've blogged earlier about this, but I haven't had the time...
I have realized that timing is everything...sometimes you just have to wait for the right moment.
There is always a quote on quote "right moment" for everything.
It's just comes down to, "Our we willing to wait?"
Anyway I have learned a lot, even though I have had so much past experience!!!
Here are some of the things I learned.

1) Don't let the babies take a nap too late in the day, for too long.
2) Feed them A LOT, it makes them tired :)
3) Always pack extra sippy cups when you leave the house
4) Don't be afraid to discipline
5) Have them throw away their own diaper! (especially the bad ones)...lol
6) Try not to get to frustrated, if this does happen get some fresh air and breathe... this helps me.
7) Take a nap, when they take a nap
8) Put a lock on the pantry door!
9) When they say, "I want to eat" after they just ate and your putting them down for a nap... know it's not true
10) They can never get enough of, Dora the explorer and fruit loops
I have learned much more than this, but in the end.. 
everything turned out ok.
I just can't wait to have some freedom from this full time job :)
Here are my tiny tykes!

Anyway, Cheers to babies!
