The House is Quiet

Grace is sleeping, Libby is at a birthday party, and Ethan and Michael are out on a date. The only person awake is Sam and he is hanging out on my lap. He isn't about to lay down - that would be against his deepest beliefs. So I figure while things are as calm as they are going to get I would put some pictures on the blog. I don't have any exciting adventures to relate (unless the fact that Sam just spit up down my shirt counts) or super funny stories so I will just post some pictures.

Well I do have one funny story. About a week ago the kids were supposed to keep an eye on the babies while I took a quick shower. I got out of the shower to find only Sam still in the house. I figured the kids had taken Grace out into the backyard with them, which is fine, it being fully fenced and all. I got dressed and I still hadn't seen them so I went to check. When I got outside I saw the back gate was open. I went out the gate into the alley. Ethan had loaded both of his sisters up into the double stroller and was running at full speed pushing them up and down the alley. As if that wasn't bad enough Ethan and Libby were still in their jammies. And Grace, well she wasn't in her jammies, she was 100% buck naked. I'm not sure I want to know what the neighbors even think of us.

Well I don't have any more stories, so let's get on with the pictures.

My handsome boys (some day Sam will look handsome and not goofy).


My girls. See at least Grace is wearing a diaper.

Grace figured out how to open the cupboard that holds the raisins. The raisins have now been moved. Once again at least wearing a diaper. I may want to consider getting her dressed more often.

End of a long day.
