a few spare minutes

I am back watching the little kiddos (my nephew and a 16th month old friend of the family).  Now they are both crawling like maniacs, and pulling themselves up on everything and anything.  The only time I sit for more than two minutes is if I can get them both situated and happy in their highchairs and I can scarf down a snack (today was almond butter on crackers, and apple sauce).  It is funny to watch them at certain points of the day... like clockwork at 4 p.m. I will be sitting on the floor trying to entertain them both, or better yet, have them be in the mood to entertain themselves, and they will simultaneously merge towards me and not leave my side, or pant leg, until the parental units get home.  

They are both sleeping at the moment (obviously one other time during the day I can sit for a few minutes).  They are both so very cute and fun to be around.  However, tiring.  I might make it to a rec. soccer game (only because it sounds much easier than using the eliptical machine) tonight and then a bath and to bed... what an exciting evening.  The funny thing is I know it will be a very good evening.
