A little laugh for Tuesday!

I was taking the girls and dog on a walk this morning.  There was a lady coming towards us and she must have been watching for a bit.  When she got close enough, I smiled and said, "Good morning"  she replies with "You have your hands full!"  Still smiling, I replied (with a bunch of extra cheer since I'm working with 3+ hours of sleep last night)  Yes I do!  She is almost past us, turns and says, It's a fun job though.
This is how I chose to take her statement.  I'm the baby sitter.  Which means, I don't look old enough to be the mom and my body doesn't look like it could have possibly just had 3 children in the last 22 months.  Molli: 1 Lady: 0

Responses I could have said:
It's a great job, you should see the paycheck...hahahaha
365 days a year lady!
You should see how fun it is when they're all crying.  Thankfully that rarely happens!

As for the girls:
Kayla is now 5 months old!
She is well on her way to reading...just kidding, this was a present from Kenzie
She loves to sing with daddy, watch her sisters, and ride in the back pack carrier.
She has found her feet, hasn't really taken to cereal yet (although this morning she did pretty well), loves to play peek a boo with her sisters over her crib railings, laughs, likes to ride/sit in the stroller and loves to chew her hands.  
The twins are a few days shy of 22 months.  They love to sing and dance, play outside, and jump (we bought a kiddy tramp, but they jump on anything their feet can touch).  They love to play babies!  I am amazed at how quickly they pick things up.  Khloe put her baby in the grocery cart and then went and got a blankie and put it over the babies lap :)  They put them in high chairs and feed them, yesterday they gave them drinks.  Yes, real cups, no lids with water.  Whoops.  Kenzie would live outside if I'd let her and would take every single ball home with her.  On our walks she always says buh-bye as we pass each one.  Khloe can sing parts of Twinkle, twinkle and Old McDonald.  I'm just waiting for the moment they all of the sudden wake up and just talk in english.  Time to fold more laundry.  Once my camera card is working again, I'll get new pictures up.

I can...I will...I did.

I think my grandpa Groelsma would be proud.  I built a screen door today while my girls slept.  I wanted to be able to keep my front door open and keep the bugs (and children) from entering and exiting at will.

Yes, she has a blanket in her crib.  Yes, she can breath and it isn't covering her nose.

Planted seeds for my garden...

I also baked tomato basil bread...

 Go me.  Enough bragging.  Get outside and enjoy this weather!
