A Night In With My Nephews


Last weekend AJ & Stacy were in town for a wedding. Stacy's parents, Sal & Bill, normally babysit Colin & Brendan, but they had a class reunion to attend. I jumped at the chance to spend some quality time with my nephews.  I have not gotten to see them very much with their living in other states and all. Lucky for me, they are moving back to Ohio this month! Yay! Lots of quality time will be spent, I'm sure!
 
 
Anyways, how does a girl keep two rambunctious little boys entertained?
 
Colin had plenty of ideas to keep us busy - hide & seek, Sonic the Hedgehog, tag... Seriously, he has more energy in 4 hours than I have had in my whole life combined!
 
Brenny had other ideas for how to keep entertained...
 
 
With bowls on his head...
 
 

With blocks on his heads...
 
He's always coming up with creative hats.
 
 
Brenny has come so far in the past few month. I am so proud every time I see him. He has new words, he makes more eye contact, he smiles. And this visit, he even gave me hugs - something he has never voluntarily done before.
 
 

You can't tell, but that is a kitchen utensil in Colin's hand. A room full of toys and yet they still pick the most random things to play with.

Colin wanted to teach me how to play Sonic the Hedgehog on the IPad...
Kids these days don't know what they are missing out on - they'll never really know what a Sega is... or a Nintendo.
 
 
Love their sweet little faces!

 
We had so much fun! I can't wait to babysit again!
