How our lives have changed ....

Steve and I had such a fun night -- a Saturday night at home with lots of kids.

First, Ellie came over for the afternoon and evening. Since both Steve and I were home and planning to play with the girls, I offered to watch Zachary and Nicholas for a short time too. If we were going to be home with two girls, why not 4 kids, huh? After I offered to watch the two extra boys, I wondered whether it was a mistake ... but fortunately, the girls got along great. They were fast friends. And, the boys were as good as can be, too. It was such a fun night. Both Steve and I commented on how nice it was to make them dinner, play with them, and hear them run around together.

Carolyn tried to teach baby Nicholas how to build a tower. She asked me why he did not listen to her.

They are certainly not ready to stay home by themselves, but it was pretty awesome to see all of them play together and entertain themselves.

Carolyn and Ellie loved painting. See the artists in action. When uploading these photos, I noticed that Carolyn is painting with her left hand. She has not yet determined which hand is her preferred hand. She continues to use both her right and left. Though, I think her right is the preferred hand for eating.
