Pass the whipped cream, please

For those of you that don't know, I got a job a while back nannying for The Brousseau Family 4.5 miles away from where I live. They have 4 children:
Addison is 9 and loves to dance. if you asked her if she cleaned her room she says "i think so" then if you say that you are going to go check she says "wait i should go check first.
Jackson is 5 and loves to play basketball and is actually very good at it. He does small things... like pinch his brother to make gray mad.
Grayson is 4 and probably the hardest. He is very moody. If he doesnt get his way over the tiniest thing then he throws a crazy fit. He is usually good though. He is more of an outright kid... if his Jacks makes him mad he just beats him up. (they are the same size if not gray being a little bigger)
Emerson is 9 months old and is so cute. She likes to cuddle and climb the stairs... which she is not allowed to do. She is teething right now so she cries a lot but thats to be expected of a baby i guess.

The kids are really good. they all have their little quarks but generally they are happy and fun to be with. I am so grateful for this job. It really is a blessing. The family is awesome... kinda reminds me of Dawn's actaully. Katie (the mom) is the 5th of 10 so her and i have a lot in common and grew up in basically the same family envirnment. and Matt (the dad) is a social butterfly, super nice and 6'8".



I took the kids to the park yesterday for a picnic. It was such a beautiful day outside.



And i had to sell my car. I loved my car so much. I will miss it alot. I sold if for $200. i probably could have gotten a little more but i am impatient and wanted it gone. Mom and dad raced the two olds up to utah last weekend to drop the red one off for me. But if any of you were wondering where i was going to put my collection of ducks in the new car here is it! they really like it there.
