♡ A Love Hate Relationship...

with spring/summer! I love it because I can send the kids outside and not listen to them argue, scream, crying and getting into stuff! I hate it because of this.... Dirt all over my floor from them coming IN AND OUT all day long...
And this... MORE DIRTY LAUNDRY, dirty butts and dirty bodies in general! Giving baths daily is not my idea of FUN! And we end up with several pairs of clothing per kid because they go out in the morning, come in and change for nap time and then go out again at night...
I had to get this picture of the kids ACTUALLY getting along and playing! Minimal yelling and arguing. A little high pitched baby talk... But no yelling and fighting! Very nice!

Yesterday Olivia & Eliza were trying to play Miss Mary Mack! Emma has been teaching them and I thought it was so cute! They actually got along for about a minute! That's a miracle! :)


Oh and by the way, Eliza has informed me that her spider came out of her mouth because she isn't sick anymore! We had to have another talk about germs/bacteria and that it's not a real "bug" in her tummy!

I hear you on the laundry front. I do it for 7 people & even though Addison can't go outside she has the biggest pile out of all of them.

I hate all the dirt and laundry also. ITs so funny, they get to learn those things from a big sister. Kimber doesnt have a clue about that stuff yet. Ryan and Kyler will never be teaching her that. hehe

I'm glad she is feeling better. And what a blessing to have children play NICELY together. It is so hard when kids fight... and some days it seems like mine do ALL the time.

Oh man, I can relate to the dirty clothes and mud on the floor. Love the picture of them playing together. I take the same pictures: gotta get the documentation that it actually happens!

Cute, a spider in her tummy! I agree, it's great to send the kids outside, but then floor needs to be clean more often. I also feel like it's harder for me to get things done since I am constantly checking on them.
