today i had the privilege of watching my little joey boy.

the kids were all so excited. the boys took turns holding him while the other one got ready for school. they had fun watching him bounce around in his little bouncer. once the boys were off to school, joey was surrounded by a bunch of princess'. i think he liked it, though :)

roxy and joey became instant friends, too.

when joey was taking his nap, mea kept going into the room he was in and would yell out "JOOOEY sleeping?" it's a miracle he slept from 9:00 to 11:15 with her doing that. anyone that knows mea--knows she is the BABY in this house. she is loud!

and, not only could mea not stop thinking of joey while he was sleeping...when it was her nap time, she kept waking up and yelling, "where joey mom?" i would tell her he was still here and she would lay her keepie back down.

having joey over was fun and i loved it. but, getting him here and back to his momma was tough! joey lives about an hour a way with his mommy and daddy. his mommy works 30 minutes from his favorite auntie. so i drove to pick him up at 5:45 this morning! i brought my little mea with me because she woke me up at 4:45. i knew she'd be excited to pick up joey and she really was.

all this say that i wish my brother and wife would move closer...that way i could enjoy more time with my cute little nephew!
