Mother's Day Pics & Others - A bit late

We borrowed this plastic play-yard from a friend...thanks, Shawnna! She called it the "circle of neglect" so we use the same term. They hate all the gates we have around the house now. Will always eyes the gates and when there is ever an opening, he hauls baby butt to it to break out. Fortunately, we've figured him out, and we are always on the lookout for his escapes.

Abby crawls into and over everything. She especially likes to get in the bottom part of the exersaucers. She gets very angry when her brother or sister is in it, and she can't get in.

Marie has gotten into pulling all the clothes off the shelves of the changing table that's in the play room. You can see the mess behind her. She gets out the clothes, covers herself in them, and laughs and laughs. She's easy to please, but I hate folding everything several times a day.

Take a look at the picture below. Now, try to match the children with the appropriate mothers. This isn't even the whole crew...Alice and Drew are missing. Can you believe this crowd?

Will had too much wine the Saturday before Mother's Day. He stayed up late with the grown ups. He's been doing that lately. He likes to stay up later than the girls. I guess he figures it's the only one-on-one time he gets with us.
