Misty has my kiddos...

I am totally just going to copy her blog post for you. :) Here is what she has to say and a ton pf pictures she has taken... From this point on my comments will be in all CAPS.

HERE IS WHAT MISTY, MY SISTER, HAS TO SAY ABOUT HER WEEKEND THUS FAR WITH MY KIDS...

My sister and her hubby are in Costa Rica right now (AHHH YEAH!!), so I have the first shift of watching her kids. I brought them back to our house so we could hang out with Phil. He had several things going on this weekend so he couldn't come out with us. Anyhow, here are several pictures from today. We went to the park across the street and had some fun out there. The 3 big kids went back to the park while the little boys napped. I set myself up on the corner where I still had reception on the monitor and could see the kids at the park. After a visit from Grandma, Grandpa and Joslyn we went to a local water park. Little did we know there was a festival going on down town so it was packed! We still had fun, though! I think (hope) we're looking at early bedtimes tonight because if they feel at all like me, everyone should be pooped! Here a million picture (I'm hoping my sister will check my blog while she's gone so she can see her kiddos) THANK YOU! THEY TOTALLY MAKE ME SMILE! AND I MISS MY SWEET LITTLE RUGRATS!!

D on the slide
I AM THINKING IT MIGHT BE TIME FOR A HAIR CUT SOON!


J unhappy about being at the park - he eventually enjoyed it!
MAN, I DON'T MISS THAT LOOK, I SEE IT WAY TOO OFTEN. ;) LOL!
LOVE YOU, J!


A pushing D around in a circle
AHH--D LOOKS LIKE HE IS ENJOYING HIMSELF!
THANKS, A, FOR BEING SO HELPFUL!


D caught more speed than A thought he would coming down the slide
ROFL!! HAHAHA


J pushing S around in circles
WHAT A HELPFUL BIG BROTHER! AWESOME!


S avoiding the camera
SO SHE DOESN'T JUST DO THAT TO ME.


A and S walking Ty home
LOVE THAT! :)


Pre-lunch snack. Yes, I fed them from the floor!
GASP, SHOCK AND HORROR! LOL!!


What Ty thinks of our house guests. He really is having a harder time than anyone else. I guess it's good that he's getting used to om not being totally wrapped up in him since that will be our life in a few months!
HE LOOKS TOTALLY HAPPY HERE! :)


At the water park
MY LITTLE FISHIES!!


J, A, S in front of the spouting volcano/submarine/whale?


S making a run for it while J and A get soaked!
OH MY GOSH! THAT CRACKS ME UP. RUN, S, RUN!! :)


The park
WOW! WHY DIDN'T THEY HAVE SOMETHING COOL LIKE THAT WHEN WE WERE GROWING UP!


D content by the side. He never did move too far from this spot.
WHAT A SILLY LITTLE NUT!
WAS HE CONTENT OR JUST NERVOUS?


Ty running around
ADORABLE AS ALWAYS!


Phil and Ty
THANKS GUYS, FOR SHARING YOUR WIFE/MOM WITH US. :)


All of us, minus Phil
GOOD TIMES!


Fiona and D. No, I don't know Fiona. However, she came and stood in front of Tyler for about a minute and they just looked at each other. Later on she came and just sat next to D. I thought I should get a picture of her. She is very cute!
KISS THAT LITTLE BOY FOR ME! SIGH!

AND THEN SOME MORE FROM MISTY... SHE IS A BETTER BLOGGER ABOUT MY KIDS THAN I AM. HAHA!

Apparently, the night wasn't quite over! I realized it was time for all the kids to take baths. I put the 2 girls in our tub with the jets and then took the little boys into the other bathroom. We told them they could have a jetted bath, or a bubble bath but not both. I thought the girls sounded like they were having way too much fun, and, I was right! Here are some pictures from the evening. Who would've thought I needed to keep a closer eye on the two older ones? Needless to say, when J saw what they had done, he HAD to join in on the fun! Enjoy the pictures!

Little boys playing nicely
SO CUTE! I HOPE THEY ARE GETTING ALONG.


D with soap in his hair
DANG--HOW CUTE IS THAT LITTLE GUY!


Oh yeah! Check it out!
ROCK ON TY! LOVE THE HAWK!


Caught!!! It's a good thing I came in when I did - we almost had a tub overflow. Those bubbles just keep getting bigger and bigger!
RUH ROH! SNEAKY SNEAKERSONS!
HAHAHA!! THEY LOVE THEIR BUBBLE BATHS!


The Culprit!
GUILTY INDEED!


The accomplice
I AM THINKING SHE MIGHT ACTUALLY HAVE BEEN THE
MASTER PLANNER PLANNER OF THIS EVENT, BUT NOW HIDES
UNDER THE GUISE OF ACCOMPLICE. ;)


Couldn't pass up the opportunity!
TAKING FULL ADVANTAGE OF THE SITUATION! THAT'S MY BOY!


THANK YOU MISTY, FOR TAKING SUCH GOOD CARE OF THEM, YOU ARE BRAVE BRAVE WOMAN TO VENTURE OUT WITH ALL OF THEM. LOL!! REMEMBER TO THREATEN THEM WITH THE GIFTS FROM US IF THEY ARE MISBEHAVING! LOL! AND SMOOCH THEM ALL FOR ME. :)

WE ARE WELL AND HAVING FUN! SEE YOU ALL SOON! :)

I used the threat last night after several visits to the bedroom and little boys being woken up! =)

I will say we got some funny looks. Phil and I were both pushing strollers, I'm pregnant and we had 3 kids hanging on the strollers. We even had one person comment about us being "quite the group!" It was pretty funny! It was fun though! We all got a little too much sun, but I think I got the worst of it because I didn't put sunscreen on myself until we got to the water park. Oh well. We're heading back tonight and I think Ty is staying here. He ended up with a nasty runny nose. D will be sad, I'm sure, but Ty will enjoy being home with dad! We kept him up late for a little one-on-one time last night and he loved it! =)

Enjoy, now you have to blog about YOUR trip! Did I mention J and S both picked me flowers on Friday at the park by your house? It was very sweet!

Oh, and D was both content and timid. He was not a fan of the explosions of water. That corner let him be inthe water and far enough away that he didn't get wet from the blast. The kids would run around (I have a video) and come splash him on occasion. Ty would also go play with him, too. Ty just wanted to run free. He has bumps and bruises from his failed escape attempts running on the wet ground...stinker!
