My Crazy Week

I had 5 kids for almost a week, was a soccer mom, and I was a working mom. I was so busy all week. I loved teaching preschool. I would have taken pictures to show how cute the kids are and the fun things we did, but I don't know that their parents would have liked that... It was fun watching Ashlee's kids. It was especially fun having the kids have a 7:30 bedtime instead of 8:00. The nights seemed much longer. I was so tired though by the end of every day. I wasn't getting as much sleep as I'm used to. I had to be up and ready earlier than normal and Jordan was sleeping in our room, which contributed to the loss of sleep greatly. He woke up so much in the night. Much more than normal. At least much more than we normally hear him. Having him in his own room last night was my favorite part of being done babysitting. Here's the pictures from this week.
Jackson, Alli, and I played restaurant. Alli loved dressing up for it. She really loved playing it too. In fact, in the middle of the night she started crying because she missed her mom and dad, and Doug went in and he told her we could play restaurant in the morning and she went back to sleep happily and quickly. Jackson wore a fireman's hat for about 2 minutes then wouldn't put it back on. Not even for a picture.
Chef Jordan
Jack slept in Alli's bed on the last night and Alli slept in his playpen. It was his first time in a big kid bed.
Sammy. I thought this picture was pretty funny.

We made welcome home cookies for Ashlee and Konrad.
We went to their ward Halloween Party. Jack loved saying trick or treat. Alli said she didn't want to say it. The other girls were with friends so I don't know if they said it :)
Allis wouldn't come sit down by the other kids because when I told them I wanted to take their picture I put Jordan down and told them to sit around him. Since Kimber and Aleigha sat by him she couldn't and so she wouldn't sit down until Kimber moved so she could sit there. Jack wouldn't wear his hat and tried to get out of wearing his costume. But he finally gave in and was happy in it as long as he didn't have to wear the hat. As soon as we got back the to the house he asked to take it off.
