Ava Rose

I had the great pleasure of babysitting my new niece Ava Rose! Even though I was a last minute choice it was still a great honor. She is 2 and 1/2 months old and soooo cute! It was a really easy day. All she did was eat, sleep, and poop. Man, does she have the sweet life. I took my friend Jackie along to keep me company. It was fun, we played the Wii that they had there and during nap times we battled in Guitar Hero. While the baby was awake we took turns watching her while the other played a game on the Wii. She was really a good baby and loved to watch me box in Wii sports. She even tried throwing a few punches here and there. Jackie took lots of pictures so once I get them from her I will definitely post them.

There was one really funny part about babysitting. I was holding Ava in my arms and after a little while she fell asleep. I was getting ready to put her in her crib when she let out the loudest old man snore I have ever heard. I was a little taken back on such such a tiny thing could make such a loud noise. It wasn't long before I was laughing uncontrollably. I tried to fight it in fear of awakening her but I couldn't. My whole body shook as I tried to fight the enormous belly laugh that was forming in my bowels. Ava is over my shoulder so I took her to the bathroom mirror to see if my good vibrations had waken her. They had and she had the most puzzled look on her face. That made me laugh even more. The giggles finally subside and I finally get Ava down for her nap. It has been a long time since I laughed like that. I think a little pee even came out.
