mommy. mommy. mommy.


so we are also getting some good mommy practice here in spain. we are learning so many things... like how to distract 2 year olds, how to ignore the sometimes crying, and how much we need to get stronger in order to carry babies on our hips. 



 2 days of watching two precious girls (Jordan & Sarah):
-walking around the shopping center in which only about 10 shops were open
-riding the escalator about 20 times in a row
-trying to get some coffee at the cafe/ making the girls sit still
-trying to find the apartment we are staying at but never finding it after walking about an hour in the rain!
-eating lunch off the floor of an apartment complex we thought was ours!
-swinging at the park for longer than you could 
ever imagine (bc of sigfr, of course)

-trying to communicate with the other nannies who were only spanish speaking

 
we were a little frustrated being lost but these 2 days were actually fun. (being honest here riekje!)

What kind of crazy parents would go to the the wrong house, have a food fight with lunch, and then eat that same lunch off of the ground?!
