A Mom of Four


Look at those handsome boys! Last week we watched the Karren kiddos. We had a great time with them. They were so good for us and especially helped me out a lot during the day while Josh was at work. I was a little nervous to go from watching one kid to four, but it was awesome. (Yes Barb, I will give you more grandkids). I have to say, it is nice to have older kids around cause they can help around the house. These kids were so good at doing chores and keeping the house as clean as we could! We were so busy I forgot to take more pictures. The kids made a list of things they wanted to do and we checked most of them off, as well as some other things.
  • Borders to look at the books
  • Petsmart to see all of the animals (Logan thought it was so funny to show me the naked mole rats, because they totally grossed me out)
  • Dollar store to look at all the cool stuff
  • McDonalds for lunch
  • Watched a Red Box
  • Went to a movie (Despicable Me)
  • Ate pizza
  • Made bracelets
  • Caspers for Ice Cream
  • Had Grandma and Grandpa Wood over for dinner one night
  • Cooper watched a lot of Dora. (That little Spanish Girl saved my life)
  • Played Monopoly with Grandpa and Grandma
  • Bought Oatmeal Creme Pies for Logan and ate the whole box
  • Ate a lot of Popsicles
So as you can see, it was pretty much a party the whole time we were there! I figured, they were good and did all of the things they were supposed to and then some, so we just had fun the rest of the time! Thats what Aunts and Uncles are for! Thank you kids for being so good for me. I love you, and am grateful I get to be your Aunt!

Thanks Ash for doing that for us! The kids have all talked about how fun it was to have you guys there. Cooper keeps doing patty-cake and saying "and throw it in the oven for Drake and me!" And I'm really glad to know you'll still have more kids after all that craziness!
