Next time, won't you sing with me?

On Friday, we got to babysit Ty and Mack while Clayton and Amber went to an orientation for BYU's MBA program. We had so much fun playing with the boys and watching Grace interact with her cousins. However, we soon realized that Grandma's house isn't the most "kid-friendly" place to be. Ty did really well--very obedient and easy going. Mack, however, needs to be watched closely. He pulls himself up to furniture, and if you turn your back for just one second, he's pressing buttons on the TV or climbing up the table. The trampoline was a kid-proof place for the boys to play. Mack got right on and started crawling all over the place. He is such a bruiser that he would crawl right off the edge if Neil wasn't right there with him. Tyler wasn't a fan of the trampoline at first. He was scared stiff and wouldn't move a muscle. He soon warmed up to it, and we couldn't get him to come off. It was time for their naps, and we had to bribe them both to get them to go to sleep. These two are hilarious.
We took Ty and Grace on a walk in Amber's double stroller. (Amber had to take Mack to a Doctor's appointment midway through the morning; that's why he wasn't with us.) Tyler had so much fun strolling around with Grace. We caught him holding her hand and singing songs to her. Grace just went with it. After a while, she must have gotten bored with Tyler, because she fell asleep. At the end of the day, we felt we had accomplished something grand. If we can handle three babies under 2 1/2 years old, we can handle anything. We sure love our Nephews!
Below is a video we recorded of Tyler singing his ABC's to Grace. She doesn't look amused because she just woke up... I think.
