Almeida Adventures: Another Great Babysitting Adventure

Our babysitting adventure with the kids started off with Charlie putting on his Mommy's boots and prancing around the bedroom. He thought he was hot stuff. Of course this led to little miss LizzyB mimicking her big brother for the rest of the week. It wasn't so bad when they were on the carpet, but the clunking with the boots on the hardwood floor about drove us crazy!!

Here he is "posing" with the boots.

Lizzy is quick to mimic and here she is proud to wear Mommy's boots.

Lizzy just loves her sunglasses that Mommy bought for her. Of course she has to have her binky and favorite blankie that Grammy made for her.

Here are the kids having some fun in the back yard on their slide. We had fun almost every night in the backyard playground.

Here is Charlie making a cake for Vovo from his PlayDoh.

Here is the video of him cutting up the cake.

OK, now it's bath time FUN!!!

We tried to have "quiet time" every night with the kids before bedtime. Sometimes it worked and other nights not so much. But overall it was good.

Softball was a big hit with Charlie in the evening in the back yard. He did VERY GOOD and made many "home runs"!!!

Check out the video of Charlie playing softball.

Here is Mr. Piggy on a typical morning at breakfast. Charlie has a great appetite and likes a variety of foods.

We were all up in the bedroom one day and Lizzy and Charlie discovered Papa's baseball cap. They had lots of fun putting it on and wearing it as they ran around the room.

Lizzy just LOVED Codi and she followed her everywhere. Most of the time Codi was trying to escape from Lizzy, but all worked out well.

Papa and Charlie built lots of puzzles

Here's Lizzy giving some extra loving to Codi.

We went to the park and Charlie had fun feeding the duckies. Here he is winding up for a big time throw of bread to the ducks.

Lizzy enjoyed watching the activities.

Charlie fell in love with this digger at the park. He didn't even want to leave it to go feed the ducks!

Here are a couple of video's for your enjoyment. This first one took place while Vovo & Lizzy were waiting for Charlie to finish his gym class. She was a very big helper.
