Babysitting

Last night, Tony and I had the honor of babysitting Connor and Megan. Amy and Rob had a little neighborhood get together to attend, so we were more than willing to spend some quality cousin time with the kiddos. Here are the highlights of our evening together:

While I cooked supper Meg, Connor and Tony played on the Kinect. Meg loves fruit ninja! 

Connor had some quality Luna time.

We had a delicious supper: cheddar wursts, mac and cheese, baked beans and chips! Yummo!

Connor is VERY knowledgeable about the stars and constellations. Tony had the great idea to set up his telescope and head outdoors to look at the stars. Connor really gave a good educational talk about them. He even got to see the moons around Jupiter!


When Meg was taking a turn on the big telescope, Connor used his little one.

We came in doors, and I started doing the dishes. While I did that, Meg and Tony played several games of tic tac toe.

and Connor played Angry Birds on my Nook.

After I did all the dishes, we decided to dirty some more! We brought out the stove top popcorn maker that Dad got us for Christmas. The kids thought it was pretty cool to make popcorn like that!

I made the first batch...

delicious!

and Tony made the second batch.

Luna tried the popcorn too. She LOVED it! It was very difficult to keep her out of the bowl....

  1. You need to show me Angry Birds on your Nook. I've seen that referenced in different places and gather it's a current phenomenon but I don't know what it is!
