Fun With Family

Last Sunday the Rindlisbachers (Dan's sister Amy and her family) came over for dinner. We made them some delicious Chicken Cordon Bleu from a recipe that I recently discovered. I also tried to make Rhodes rolls for the first time.. they turned out hard as a rock! Thank heavens for Pillsbury.. their croissant rolls came to the rescue! 
After dinner, Amy's two oldest girls, Natalie and Brooke, asked to help me with the dishes. Our dishwasher is currently broken so we have to wash everything by hand. It was so fun to see them try to get them clean! They did such a good job! After they left, I washed them again.. just to make them extra clean ;)

 

On Tuesday I got to babysit my sister Kassy's two youngest kids, Jonas (3 years old) and Sarah (2 years old). Talk about cute! We had so much fun doing puzzles, coloring, and watching Backyardigans! I asked if they wanted to take a tour of our new apartment and they said, "Sure!" When I showed them our room, Jonas looked at all the walls and the closets and said, "wow, this is a really nice room!" He is going to be an amazing builder when he's older so that was a HUGE compliment coming from him! Later, Sarah really wanted to play in the hall, but she was too scared to go by herself because the lights were off and it was dark. I was feeding Logan so I asked Jo-Jo if he would go with her. He took her by the hand, turned on the light, and walked down the hall with her.  It was so cute! When she realized it was nothing special she got bored and came back to do another puzzle, haha.

"Show me your apple, Sarah."

 All I can say is we have some dang cute nieces and nephews!!
