Mini-tragedy...mega hilarious.
Hey y'all. I started this blog with such high hopes last year. I feel like such a lame-o! I blogged like....... none times almost. But hey I tried it out. Maybe now it will become regular. Maybe not though and this will not even be read by anyone. You never know.......
So I realize that it is 22 days past the new year. However, I have held a story about my December 31st in for way too long. I just never want to forget that night, so by blogging I will be able to come back and re-live it! Here is the story. My sister asked me to babysit her adorable two year old, Bella, on new year's eve. Totally fine with me, right? This little girl is my favorite pal, so fun to be around, and....... Well I mean, I don't have much of a life when I go home from college for holiday breaks. I had to practically beg the good people at the Robinson Subway restaurant for ONE stinkin' day of work that I haven't even been paid yet for.
Anyways.. So I was all prepared for this big day of babysitting. Once my sister and her husband left, I sat down with my buddy to watch Wilber and Charlotte weave some magic on Charlotte's Web. We watched Strawberry Shortcake and Elmo and Bambi. We danced in the kitchen with the dog, had a snack, and even played with Barbie! Then... the supper, bath, and dreaded bedtime was upon us. After she was all cleaned up I put her in her cookie monster pajamas and she squeezed her plushy, stuffed kitty cats while I read her a Fancy Nancy book or five. Meanwhile... I forgot about a very important member of the household. Yes...... The dog! It turns out that Roxy, the miniature pinscher, was still inside while I was tending to the toddler.
Whoops! You can guess what happened next. I was probably ten minutes from having my niece in bed, dreaming about tea cups and cartoons, when the dog lets loose on the carpet. Of her bedroom. As expected, chaos was to follow this extremely messy moment, especially after Bella hopped out of her bed and squished right into a pile of Roxy's aftermath. WOAH, was this bad. I had to act fast. I had to do something, right?! I was frozen. What?! Did that just happen? The dog literally left matter behind her as she ran in circles in the bedroom. Sadly, I spanked and tossed her outside. The dog, not my niece. Don't worry! I didn't completely lose my cool. It took about an hour and a half to get everything cleaned up, including Bella's foot and pantleg, and finally I thought we were ready to cuddle up and conk out. Wrong-o! Just when she started to close her eyes, my sister and her husband pulled up the driveway and Bella sprang awake to greet them. Close, but no cigar.
Secretly, I am proud of my niece for being so cool. When I was two years old, I bet I didn't even come close to reaching the midnight celebration of the new year.
I have a feeling she will continue to prove herself as awesome more and more every year.
