What's New in Babysitting?

When you're watching an eighteen month old who is going on three or four, lots of things are always happening in the house and here are some of them:

She has two dogs and the littlest one she calls "Little."  She recently got a stuffed animal dog who she calls, "Little." Can you tell which "Little" eats dog food?

This girl is going to like jewelry.  She saw my wedding ring on my finger and insisted on trying it out.

One of her new dolls is Rachel, who has her own television show.  This is her Rachel and the one on television.

                                                                                                                                                                                                      

                                                                                                                                                                                  

My granddaughter's Rachel has been hanging out a lot with "Rainbow Bear," as you can see below they are on top of a slide and about ready to go down together which my granddaughter enjoys seeing.

I use different voices when I'm playing with my granddaughter and for Ms. Rachel I started talking like Mrs. Doubtfire. I had the male, British accent down pretty well and frequently I would say, "Helllooo! Oh my child, what would you like to play now? Help is on the way dear! How precious are you?"

I have been able to teach my granddaughter a new game-the old shell game.  I put a small toy piece under a cup and move it around. She manages to pick up every cup before getting to the right one. I think she may be catching on.  When she's an adult,  she's going to forget this, except for this blog.

Lastly, I was never very good at coloring and this picture will definitely prove it.  I could not stay in between the lines, partially due to her shaking my hand while I tried to color, is that really fair to me?
