A Friends Visit

Well it has been a week since posting anything. It has been a busy and tiring week. Last Friday our friends,Steve and Jennifer Lloyd and their children stopped by to visit. They have 3 children as well. Carson who is 5 yrs old, same as Chloe, Campbell is 2yrs old and their newest addition and I mean new. Madeline Grace. She was 1 week old and so beautiful. Just look at how beautiful she is. So you can only imagine how crazy our house was. We loved it!

Chloe did so well with Madeline. She loves being around little children and she is a big help. I told her not to get any ideas!!



To think about another child and what it would be like to have 4. Here is Dale with our kids and Madeline. Dale thinks he is busy with 3 imagine 4.

Well this week Dale has adjusted a little better to being Mr Dad. He actually learned how to run the dishwasher. YEAH!! What a difference a clean sink makes!! This coming week we will be working on the kitchen floor, keeping it mopped and cleaned. He is doing an AWESOME job. It is a lot harder than people realize. With 3 little ones in the area it is a lot harder to keep things cleaned and actually put away. We are a work in progress.
Caleb finally took 4 steps last Friday to Uncle Steve as we call him. I didn't catch it on film but I will. Then I will post it.
This is Carson and Campbell playing in the kitchen and making dinner for us.

Steve with baby Madeline. Caleb loves playing with this little house. I think this is the best toy item that we bought throughout all the kids. They have all loved it and all 3 still play with it. Great Christmas gift for anyone with smaller children.
We went to the park last night to play with the kids. Here is a few shots from that. Chloe loves to pose. This is how she likes to play ball. Caitlyn on the other hand likes to run and kick the ball.

Here is Caleb playing with daddy. He loves
to chase the ball.

Well I guess that's about it for now. Today is Dale's birthday so we will have more pictures later of our dinner. Today he started his birthday out with the girls giving him his card. It sang Go Daddy O. He loved it and the girls thought it was great. It took us probably a half hr to pick it out. They really put some thought into it. Then we were going to breakfast and our car had a flat tire. So we spent quality family time changing out the tire. We would definitely not make the NASCAR tire changers. We made it, then we had to take the car to the radio shop to find out that the reason our radio wasn't working is because our sweet little Caitlyn had inserted a penny into it. So at least it works now and we didn't have to buy a new one like the toyota place told us.
