Never a dull moment here...

Blog post title really says it all...  there's never a dull moment.... EVA!
 
 
Love love love this little moment I caught... a break in the weather and the boys were more than happy to spend some time in the sandbox... actually playin together.. NICELY there was no sand throwing..no fightin over one of a dozen trucks and no screaming... it was a must CAPTURE moment for sure!

Let me tell you this wipes box has brought soooo much entertainment... you have no idea.. well you might have an idea after finishing this blog post

Workin on our Mayflower pictures.. they turned out sooo cute!

See what I mean... (there's the wipes box again!)

A recent trip to Costco... and I'm one extremely happy girl!  If you haven't tried the Coconut Cream spread... it's a must.. it was on sample and OMG it jumped straight into the cart... and guess what hubby's the one who helped it jump... ughh love him
 
 
We had some company for the day... Mom's of 4.. how do you do it???  It went great but goodness it's a busy day! 
Yep the clock doesn't lie... it's 6:45am...  My kids are just roarin to go... the Apeland kids... not sooo much :)

There's that silly box again!
 
Why is homemade playdoh soooo awesome... we all played for over an hour!!! If you haven't made some you MUST!  We made some green today and 3 of the 4 kiddos totally helped make it... the 4th child procceded to remove nearly every pot from my cupboards...


After lunch I thought it would be fun to get dressed and head out into the POURING DOWN rain!  Jump in some puddles... you know "boy stuff"  The boys were sooooo excited...  I on the other hand took a deep breath, reminding myself that mud washes off... no worries

Cameras and rain... not the best combo.. But kinda made for a fun picture...  The boys got right to work jumpin and splashin...

They were laughin so hard!

The little ones took their time gettin down the hill...

They were crackin up slidin down the slide and landin on their tushes in the puddle...

Way to go Haydo...

Sissy really wasn't that impressed.... She had this disgusted look on her face.. like "Why on earth are we out here??!"

Checkin out our flooded creek...

Throwin apples in the creek...
This was all about 30 seconds before I had to go help the baby up.. he fell over in his little snow suit and couldn't get back up.. I was crackin up! (what... it was funny!)
 

After showers, dry clothes, and big glasses of milk... they were out!
Well the good little kids slept... my little monster baby decided afternoon naps were stupid and refused... and Colten told me his eyes wouldn't close so he couldn't nap..(he did finally fall asleep though) 
 
Madelyn and Ben were playin so good at the fire station... I tried to catch a picture of Ben stickin his little face up to the window of the station but missed it... instead captured the after effect of him bonkin his lil head on the real window sill... poor guy!

Munchin on some apples... Colten - "Mama you should take our picture we are cute!"
 
YES YOU ARE!
 
 
Thanksgiving is approaching and there's sure to be plenty more non-dull moments to capture!  I can't wait!  
 
 
We had a fun day, made MORE playdoh, had a dance party, watched the kids run laps, built train tracks, pizza makin, puddle jumpin, mud slingin, apple eatin, little boy wrestling, boo boo bandagin, book readin.... it was an extremely busy non stop day and I have great respect for teachers, moms of large families, and anybody else that thinks watchin 4 kids 4 and under is a walk in the park... I still have chip crumbs to vacuum from my carpet, about 6000 legos to clean up that were spilt into a basket of clean laundry and tons of clothes, boots and towels to put away that were dryin in front of the woodstove... but we all survivied so it was a fabulous day... right?!
