"Dinner For 14 Please . . .

. . . . Oh and can we get 9 high chairs."


Can you imagine if we went out together to a restaurant? Our friends and their 5 children came over to our house for dinner. We love hanging out with these guys.


The whole crew
McKenzie, Presley, Jakob, Peyton, Anndalyn, Kennedy, Michael, Anthony, Carter, and Jaileigh
That was the lineup in order. The bolded names are the babies in the carseats.

and here we are again.


and one more attempt to get everyone looking.



Peyton brought his really cool play do set over and shared with our kiddos.
It was so nice of him especially since my kids still like to taste it and mix the colors.


Jake- love the tongue hanging out.

Anthony


Jaileigh


Michael



Sweet Peyton!


Annie enjoying some floor space.



We got the exersaucer out for the little quads and the big quads thought it was cool too.



After dinner we went for a walk around the neighborhood. I am sure all the neighbors were wondering what in the world was going on. I'm not sure why this picture is so blurry. I downloaded it from facebook so maybe that is why.

Early Mornings!

Our kiddos get up pretty early, usually between 5 and 6. On Saturday we decided to go out to breakfast and then we went to the playground. The quaddies were very well behaved at breakfast despite not having high chairs or booster seats. I was very impressed. Since Saturday we have been going to the playground each morning before Mike goes to work and wearing the kids out a little. They love it.

I love this picture. Jake has turned into a sensitive soul. He turned around in this picture "mommy, mommy, mommy?"

Finger Painting

Today we finger painted. The babies enjoyed it and hated it. I will let the pictures speak for themselves. Because there are so many pictures, I'm not going to do much journaling.
The beginning. . . .
