Catherine’s first babysitting experience

Ron has been dying to go gear shopping. His class is in less than month and he still needs a helmet. At least he was able to find a pair of gloves that fit really well. Gear is expensive! I never imagined how much, but I’d rather not skimp and go cheap for fear of the consequences if we did. Eeek!

We wrote model numbers down on things he tried on… jacket, boots, helmet, etc. and that he liked. Maybe he can find it cheaper on-line. At least at the Honda place we visited, we found everything to be at or above MSRP. Rip off!

While we were out, Catherine babysat… all by herself! 🙂 Go Catherine! The girls were napping initially, but she got them up, gave them a snack and Joseph was “around” in that he was still in the neighborhood and accessible by walkie-talkie. I don’t think she was worse for wear. Her hair hadn’t grayed by the time we returned (4 hours later!).
