Baby Sitting 101

I had the pleasure of baby sitting Rory, which is not really baby sitting at all, and friends Emmy and Caroline.  Emmy is Rory’s best friend and Caroline is 5 months old.  Until last night I was called the baby whisperer because I had the luck of calming Caroline.  Last night was not my night.  That poor baby cried for three hours straight and I could not calm her at all.  Changing diapers, feeding her bottles, walking, rocking, etc; nothing worked.  She finally feel asleep after her second bottle but ithink it was mostly that she exhausted herself.  Rory and Emmy were great and seem to understand what was going on.  I did find out Caroline is going through a fussy period.  I hope it ends before I watch her again.  Still love my girls!
