So last Monday was my birthday and we decided to get a babysitter for the boys so my parents, Sarah and I could go out for a nice dinner. Ben was 100% against this idea. As grandma was trying to explain this concept to him, he said, 'No, Grandma. I don't think that's a good idea.' Well, Ben had had a lot of fun with Lizzie and Doug at the parade and they are super awesome and agreed to watch the boys, so I knew it would be ok, but Ben was not so sure. He cried and cried and dragged on my clothes as I was trying to get out the door. After we left, Ben ran upstairs and hid in his room. Lizzie came up a few minutes later and eventually coaxed him out. And shockingly he had a great time with Doug and Lizzie! Huh, who would'a thunk?? Ben and Doug built big towers out of giant blocks, played dump trucks and read books. The next morning when I asked Ben about it, he said he wanted them to come back the next day. Mmmmmhhhmmmm. That's what I thought...
