I need a damn babysitter. Stat! One of my big issues is that I need a break every now and then. The problem? I am so picky and rightly so. So tomorrow I start my search, hardcore.
I've got 2 girls in mind, one would be available daytime hours. The other one nigh time, so maybe a dinner out more than once a year would be an option?
Fingers crossed.

Good luck with your two babysitters. I don't have any assvice. I haven't left Ryan with anybody but family. I would like one day a week though. I just haven't made the calls.
Keeping my fingers crossed for you! :) I hope things work out with the two girls. It's always reassuring to know you've got someone good to look after your adorable little kiddies! Oh, and date nights with the Hubster are always nice to have!
Good luck with that! I've never had a non-family sitter (and KJ is five, eek) but ohhh how I wish I could pay a high school girl at any given moment. Where oh where do we find them?!
I still live in the town where I grew up. So last year when I was in search of a sitter, I sent a letter to the local high school guidance counselors, giving my qualifications and email/phone number. I had only 2 responses, but found a wonderful girl who was a senior, wanting to major in early childhood education when she started college. We had a temporary/trial time where she came over for a few afternoons a week while either I or my husband was at home, then worked up to days and evenings that she was alone with the kids. That plan might not work for everyone, but it was great for us.
Amber! That sounds awesome. We'd love to do something like that!
Good luck! Hope you like them both.
