Snippet of MSN chat in response to an email PreZ sent yesterday telling me he'd gotten tickets to see Eddie Izzard this Friday:

[14:20] Lilith: so who's babysitting on friday?
[14:21] PreZ: dunno
[14:21] PreZ: hadn't thought about that
[14:21] Lilith: I figured :P

Yep, we're still adjusting to life with child...

So now we're on a mission to find a last minute babysitter for Friday. Any volounteers? Because this isn't really the solution we want either:

[14:23] PreZ: I wonder if they have a cloak room :P
[14:24] Lilith: yeah... right :P


EDIT: We have someone who'll babysit.

If PreZ must stay home with the boy, I could make the great sacrifice of coming up your way to attend the show with you. ;D

Hehehehehe :)

We managed to get PreZ's aunt to babysit, though I feel kind of bad asking her as we won't be back until 12.30-1am and she doesn't usually stay up quite that late.

We definitely need to try and find a babysitter who's a little more local and who won't mind staying up later. Though that might be the challenge... especially one who is more into AP kind of methods. Not that we go out much, but it might be nice to be able to escape the house and catch a movie every so often.

Drat, foiled again. :D

I'm glad PreZ's aunt was willing to help out. Finding a babysitter who understands AP/gentle parenting techniques and is willing to try to be an extension of the parents ideals in that regard can be a quite a challenge, unless you can find another parent (from LLL or a playgroup or something) who you can trust to do that "you watch my kid, I'll watch yours" thing with.
