Kids, Kids, & More Kids!

Bodee's new game is building a cave with all of the couch cushions. He buries himself in the pillows and then wants me to take his picture. When your child asks for his picture taken does it mean I take too many?
Boy am I sick of picking up cushions!
On Tuesdays & Thursdays I watch the neighbor kids after they get out of Kindergarten. They are 5 years old and twins, Ethan and Hannah. It is only for a few hours but WHEW! I admire women who have this many children so much now! I really don't think I could do it. I need a nap after they leave. Bodee loves having someone to play with even though someone is constantly crying because they want the toy that someone else has! I have gotten to the point where I just ignore them and try to let them work it out themselves. Otherwise I would be constantly breaking up fights. Poor little Kolt just sits and has an expression on his face like, "What the heck is going on here. It sure is noisy!"

I went through the "cave" phase a few months back. I got so sick of picking up pillows and blankets. I'd make my bed and leave the room, only to come back minutes later and find my bed un-made and Ashton in the process of making a cave with my pillows. Ahhh! I solved it though...I had Kellys mom buy Ashton this tent for his bday that has things that connect to it, sort of like tunnels. I told him that it was a cave. So now when he wants to build a cave I say, "go play in your tent!"
