So, I was babysitting for Aimee this evening. Here's the way it went down, from Ethne's point of view.
5:45 - Yay! I'm out of the car! Oh, there's uncle Joe! Hooray! It's play time!
5:47 - Oh, there's Luke! He's a nice guy! Look, Luke! I can walk now! Uncle Joe, look!
5:48 - Uhm. Where did mom go? Oh well, I can walk now!
5:50 - Oooh. This big wooden thing with the white and black sticks makes funny sounds. I'm gonna smash these sticks for a little bit.
5:55 - Where's mom? Oh, there's music on. This shiny thing has flashing lights. Oooh, that big knob moves too. Whoa. When I turn it, the sound gets loud. I'm gonna have fun with this thing!
6:00 - Look! Look! I can walk! Where did that knob go?
6:05 - Seriously, where's mom? Mom always comes to get me when I cry. Maybe if I stand at the door and cry REALLY loud, she'll come! That's what I'm going to do! MOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM! COME AND GET ME!!!!!!! I DON'T WANT TO BE AROUND UNCLE JOE ANYMORE!
6:10 - Mom? Where are you? This isn't working. JOE! Find mom! NOW!
6:15 - He's trying to get me to hit the sticks again. I'll humor him for a bit.
6:20 - Well, mom's not coming. I'm hungry. This guy wanted better get me some food...
6:22 - He doesn't get it. I guess I'll start crying. No, no, no. I don't want to go to bed.
6:24 - OK, crying REALLY loud didn't change. My idiot uncle doesn't get it. I know. I'll cling really tight to him. Then, if I can get him to walk around... I stop crying when he goes to the kitchen. That should work.
6:30 - Well, that took forever. But it worked. Chow time!
6:32 - MMMM...... FFFFFOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDD.
6:40 - I want something else. I'll cry until this bozo figures it out.
6:43 - Yogurt. Nice. Joe is catching on.
7:10 - I've wet myself. And I'm tired. I'm gonna get this taken care of.
7:20 - NO! You can't put me in bed now! I need my diaper changed! WHERE THE CRAP IS MY MOTHER?!?!
7:26 - HELLO McFLY! CHANGE MY DIAPER!
7:40 - Well, there was a lot of fumbling. And you managed to put the stupid diaper on backwards the first time, but I'm change and have my PJs on. I'll smile at you for a bit. Way to go, JoJo.
7:43 - That Luke guy is nice. I'll bet he wouldn't have put the diaper on backwards...
7:45 - NO!! I DON'T WANT TO GO TO BED NOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW!!!! THE FUN IS JUST STARTI.....

I think this was your funniest post yet.
I'm sorry, though, that you had a rough evening.
"McFly" -- nice touch. You are a brave man.
Good thing you had those sound-proof panels.
Anne - Actually, we threw out those sound-proofing panels after we realized we really had no way to mount them.
