On the cooler days or days where she thinks she's a camel at an oasis she can wet right on through 12 of them without breaking a sweat (and that's just in the 10-12 hours I'm watching her.)

So that's a ton of money that the DSD doesn't really have, being wasted because she's not been following through with the potty training when she isn't working. So that's going to be nipped in the butt starting Sunday when the buggins goes back to mommy.
Starz, how on earth do you manage to remain upright while taking care of a 2 year old??!!

My two granddaughters are 17 months and I cannot (will not) watch even one of them by myself. My balance is so bad and I'm afraid I won't be able to move quick enough if something happened. I really wish I could do it but I'm just so unsteady I don't trust myself to be safe enough.

I'd love to have them spend the night and give DS and DIL a break......but her Mom keeps them occasionally overnight and they have a blast.
