Baby Project...

Big Brother babysitting for a bathroom break




Getting ready for bed


This was her first wake up call at 12am. She was so funny. Julianna said, Toma the baby is crying. Toma wakes up, says the baby!! Rolls over and goes back to sleep. I tell her Toma the baby, she proceeds to try and stick the key in the lock of the car seat. Julianna and I stand there watching and smiling. Man I should of had the camera. Darn!! She finally gets the key into the slot on his back and falls asleep. My moment to snap a picture. :D




It was Toma's turn for the baby project. She wanted me to come pick her up from school. The baby is heavy is said. I said you can do it, we live a whole 10 blocks from the school. She was such a nervous Nelly..
She was not excited that she had to bring the baby to youth group. She is Mom, we need to hurry and get to youth. If the baby starts crying you need to pull over, so I can take care of him. I was NO, she just looked at me. Then I told her yes, that is exactly what we had to do when the boys were younger. We would pull over and see what was happening, change a diaper, feed them.. It was good to see her in action with the baby. She even asked me to turn down the music, so she could hear if he cried. It was not even that loud. While at youth she was about to come tell me her baby was broken. He had only cried once since she had been home. Just at that moment, he started to cry. She ran out. When she came back in. I told her you cannot run with your baby like that. She said, I know I thought of that afterwards. It is good to see that she does have some mothering skills that come naturally. It was a long night. I forgot how much sleepless nights you get with babies. The whole house was tired and a little grouchy the next morning.

Toma's roped her sister into helping her in the morning, She woke up to the baby crying and had only a few minutes to get ready. So she woke up Julianna to have her watch him while she straightened her hair. At the point I told her if she was home alone she would of not had time for that. Babies do require you to do a little more planning. Most of the time they plan your morning for you. I am so Thankful that it will be a long time till I am a grandma. At least until the oldest gets married. :D Toma did well on her baby project, she received an A.
