7 Kids!!!!!!!!

Last Saturday night we upgraded our family to seven kids. Wait, wait, wait...did you say seven kids, you ask? Yes, I know, seems a little unbelievable still. Every once in awhile we try to be nice people so we watched a couples' 4 small children so they could go out and enjoy some alone time. That left us with 7 kids for four hours...ages 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 9 months, and 3 months. Whoa! Thank goodness these kids were practically saints and it was really easy having them in our home. The only tough part was dinnertime...David and I set up an assembly line to get all the plates filled with food and then spent the rest of dinner refilling drinks and plates. Our kids enjoyed having the company and they all got along really well. Although it turned out to be just fine, David and I both agree that 3 kids is just fine with us!


Dress up and V-tech were the hits of the night.

Wow! Our hat's off to you all, we don't even want to handle one, and you guys take on seven.... What a feat! That is really sweet of you to help another couple get some alone time.

Holy 7 kids. I can't even handle my own two. Although we are watching three other kids later on this afternoon, 5 is still better than 7! You guys are the best, too bad you don't live here and you could watch our kids!
