You might be wondering how my babysitting days went with Mimi.

Well, my first day went like this… after I threw a little (ok, huge) fit in my stroller, we took a trip to my favorite store, the toy store of course.  (note to self: remember, crying works like a charm every time).

  Walking home with my treasure

I got my favorite trucks that I love so much: excavator, front loader and dump truck. The week was off to a better start than I expected.

I couldn’t stop playing with them. All. Day. Long.

Mimi suggested I put crayons in the trucks.

  Now we’re in business

Well that sealed the deal. From then on, it was trucks and crayons and crayons and trucks all the livelong day.

   

 

I even went outside of my two-year-old self and shared my trucks with Big Bear.

Sammy wasn’t into it so he just watched.

I brought them into the tub with me,

and in the bed too.

My first day? It went just fine, thank you for asking.

While visions of Caterpillar trucks danced in his head.
