Adventures in babysitting

Jeff and I celebrated our ninth anniversary this past week. Actually, "celebrated" is a strong word for it. I was sick with stomach ills that day, and Jeff had to work late. 

We planned to postpone our anniversary celebration until our upcoming beach trip, but we got a good coupon for one of our favorite restaurants and decided to go last night.

I called our go-to babysitters (who are also our friends) to see if they could babysit. They agreed, and mine and Jeff's date was on.

Our babysitters don't have kids of their own, so they see hanging out with Biscuit as a novelty. And thank goodness for that. It means that Jeff and I get to have the occasional night out. We leave them money to order pizza and head out the door with no worries. It's very nice to feel perfectly comfortable walking away from your child.

Anyway, books were read, games were played, pizza was eaten and videos were shot, including this one of the babysitters being quite amused at Biscuit telling them about heart care, i.e. stethoscopes and defibrillators.
