Today, we had to leave Elle with a babysitter/friend Pam. It was so funny how we ended up getting to know her and her family. We first saw their family during Eleiana's christening back in November. We did not know them back then but they were in the same church to have their baby Henry christened as well. Turns out that Henry's godparents are friends with the Jarbs family and Daddy Jarbs' sister's business partner. Long story short, we found out that Pam's family live just a couple of blocks up from our house. Such a small world! We had been corresponding and have visited each other's houses since then. Since Pam stays at home with her two kids, she offered to help us out one day a week this month when Elle is not in day care and when Grandma Jarbs is not with her.
This is the first time that we left Elle with a non-family member. I am happy to say it went well! When I picked her up in the afternoon, Pam said Elle behaved and napped really well. She had a fun time playing with their 2 yr old daughter, Elodie and 8 month old son, Henry. Pam sent me these pictures while I was at work.
Here she is playing with Henry on the activity mat. Look at Henry checking her out ;-)
Pulling Henry's shirt! Haha. That's our girl! ;-)
