St. Louis Weather and Babysitters

The weather here has been super gross lately. It has rained or been super muggy and humid everyday. The good thing about it is that I have been working a lot of night shifts for the past two weeks and I don't feel guilty about Grace missing out on outdoor stuff because its been too crappy for her to even go next door to the park. Since I have been working more I have had my sister, Sarah and brother, Sheldon babysit Grace. It works out perfect because my dad will drop one of them off in the morning on his way to work before Jamie has to leave, so Grace never has to be woke up and put in the car and can wake up as she normally does. Last week Sheldon watched her three days and Sarah watched her one day, but now this week is a different story. Sheldon has hand, foot, and mouth disease that he caught from my nephew. So Sarah luckily is able to step in and watch her all this week. Not to knock Sheldon but Sarah does such a fantastic job with her-- it must be a girl thing. She puts cute new clothes on her and does her hair, takes her over to the park, etc. Also, its nice to have them come to the house for the fact that I am sleeping in the other room and can get up at anytime and check on her, or if they have an issue I am right there to jump in.
