Sunday night, just before Mom and Dad left to go back to Texas, we were all busily doing our thing: Mike was in the kitchen making his famous pizza for everyone, the boys were off playing with their toys, Sam was playing with her new American Girl doll, Dad was watching a football game, and Mom and I were on the computer ordering pictures. The babies were on the floor in the family room with Grandpa Don,who was watching them, being super good and playing quietly. Well, after a few minutes when they started getting upset we figured out why they were so quiet...
Somehow the babies had gotten a hold of one of the kids' M&M candy canes, had gotten it open, and had been eating all the M&Ms! No wonder they were so quiet - their mouths were full of chocolate! My dad only noticed something was wrong when they started getting mad that the candy was all gone. To top it all off, my dad's team lost the game! (Serves him right, I say. He left the next morning, and left me with all the fun diapers that resulted from the candy binge!)
Oh well, we love him anyway! I guess we'll even let him babysit again...as long as there isn't a football game on!
