We had the privilege of having my little niece Scarlet stay at our house while her mom and dad went to Bermuda Yes, I am/was jealous!
Scarlet is 3 months older than Jack, they have a love hate relationship. Most of the time they love each other, but they do have their moments.
It was actually a lot of fun having her here! They entertained each other and Jack learned a lot of new words from Scarlet i.e. "mine", "NO TOUCH!", "Juice", "me", "turn" and "outside".
They got into a little trouble, they broke a little flower pot and then ran upstairs so they wouldn't be punished. I brought them downstairs and put them in time out while I interrogated them. Scarlet confessed to the crime and was very proud of her mess, LOL!
They enjoyed taking baths together, where they also made HUGE wet messes! But, dang they had a good time.
They hugged and kissed each other (usually after some mishap with hitting, scratching, yelling or pushing.
Scarlet played dress up, she loves her "pretty dress". Jack enjoyed wearing the plastic high heels, should I be worried??? Scarlet however was NOT amused that Jack kept stealing her shoes. Darn it, I missed getting a pic of Jack in the shoes.
And every night while they fell asleep together in my bed (we later moved them to their own beds) they drank their bottles while watching Cars.
I didn't get a picture of it, but I took the 3 of them (Addy, Jack and Scarlet) to Costco all by myself. Jack and Scarlet fell asleep on the way over, I transferred them into my double stroller, and guess what?!?! they stayed asleep!! I put Addy in the Baby Bjorn and went shopping! I pushed the stroller and dragged the cart behind me. I am sure I was quite the sight, but they slept the WHOLE time! It was actually really nice. I even stopped and got a hot dog and sat down and ate it! All while they slept! AND THEN, I put them back in their car seats and they still stayed asleep! Talk about nice!
Scarlet went home last night, she was OVERJOYED to see her Mom and Dad. Heidi and Dave looked so relaxed and TAN! Next time it is my turn to take a tropical vacation and leave the kiddo's at home!
