The Girls Tackle Babysitting

July 9, 2010 by Amy

Tonight we babysat for Jake and Jill’s baby Kellan.  He is seriously the cutest little man I know and the best baby ever, especially in his new newborn clothes.  Emma and Lexi were so excited but especially Emma.  If Lexi adores animals, Emma adores babies.  I really think she could have watched him herself.  She loves her Baby Alive babies and I KNOW that’s no comparison but she did have a little inkling on how to feed a baby so I let her help me feed him. Turns out Emma is pretty darn good at feeding a baby and she fed him two whole containers on her own.  Well, Lexi helped a few times.  The video is priceless.  Here are some highlights:

:34 No, he eats good for me!

:45 Even though this is less messier [than feeding her Baby Alive]

1:03 Kellan’s face is priceless.  “Save me!”

1:43 Lexi doing the famous wide-open mouth when trying to get the baby to do the same

3:10 Lexi’s chugga-chugga WITH the wide-open mouth

3:25 Kellan’s face.  “Save me.  Now.”

3:49 Emma: “He needs to concentrate on eating.”

Generally: Lexi’s random dancing and singing and Kellan’s as-always easy going attitude.

Bonus pictures: Lexi putting lipstick on me tonight. Jake and Jill, you owe me one.  She wanted to put it on Kellan.

    Loved the video!! That was priceless! 🙂 I sent the link to my mom and dad and they loved it too. I read Jake the blog and she said Lexi wanted to do what?! Then he heard Scott's comments about the Barbie Doll.

    I love Emma's loving arm around him. She gets that from your gentleness and loving arm and I hope you got that from me. As Jill said that video is priceless! Keep taking videos and blogging!!! Have fun at the beach and be safe! Love, mom
