quadruplets

It was quite the adventure having 6 kids 4 and under in one house. Someone was always sleeping, needing to eat, crying, or fighting over a toy. The boys love to play together, but they are boys, and they are LOUD. We tried to keep them happy and entertained for our santities sake. We were sometimes successful.



Rocks are good. Give boys some rocks, and they'll think of all sorts of things to do. I think here they are playing "mommy and daddy rocks". Although rocks are fun, it doesn't last long before the rocks are being thrown at cars or at each other. Also notice the two sets of matching outfits. People always think each set of brothers are twins. We even got asked if they were quadruplets. We are very thankful that they are not.


Grandma and Grandpa's yard isn't in yet, but that's ok. We made them some mud and it was like Christmas day. Andrew especially likes it. It got mixed in with the snot running from his nose and made a delicious muddy paste all over his face and hair.


Going to the park everyday was a MUST.



And the kids also found a lot of enjoyment from my parents moving boxes. It's all fun and games until they trapped someone inside and wouldn't let them out.

These crazy boys are a lot of work, but a ton of fun... and I am glad I don't have all boys :) Sorry Lindsey, Shelley, Staci, and a ton more people I know!

Thanks for your condolences! I'll give you mine when Mabel is a teenager and telling you that she hates you at least once a month (you know that special time)!
