we heart la la

we are so lucky to have found laura, thea's babysitter. i can't say enough about how loving and caring and kind she is [you know how it is peepers] and about how great she is with the nug.

she comes to our house two and a half days a week and when i need her the rest of the week, i take her to another house where she looks after audrey, who is three weeks younger than thea. it's a great arrangement for me because it's flexible and for thea as she gets some alone time with laura and some time with another baby; plus i'm hoping she will learn some spanish in the process.

each day when i come home or pick nuggie up i ask laura how things went and she always shakes her head and says "tee-a has A LOT of energy. always moving, moving, moving." bless laura's heart, i don't know how she manages taking care of two. i'm sure she thanks her lucky stars every night that audrey hasn't been bitten by the jumping bug yet. for now she only has one wacky baby who acts like she has ants in her pants but it's only a matter of time....

here are a few photos of the girls that laura took on may 22. [sidenote: i can't believe how much thicker thea's hair has gotten since then.] also pictured is leah, audrey's older sister. apparently she and thea have become good buds.
