My two nieces and nephew are in town with us and little enough that missing mommy and daddy is still a serious problem when they aren't around. But remodeling a house, moving and working meant that aunt abbie needed to kidnap (not literally, please don't call social services!) the kids for a few days.
So what do you do when three little ones are missing their parents? Keep them so busy they don't have time or energy to think about what they are missing!
This morning we packed in the park, zoo and a picnic. Luckily friends came along to keep me company and help out with the flock of kids!
Eight kids in all! You can't see Avery because she was on my back for a lot of the morning.
This is my sister's oldest and in this picture ALL I can see is my sister. They are starting to look so much a like.
Our attempt at a picture together!
They all crashed in the car on the way home after lunch which meant that naptime was not much of a success.
So, we packed in some sidewalk chalk, sprinkler time and soccer playing.
It was quite the outdoor playing, fun filled adventurous day!

I have a fair, park, picnic and the pool planned for tomorrow. Exhausted just thinking about it.
Lol, wow Abbie, you deserve a medal! Or at least a reallllly long lie-in next weekend!

Good to see you all. The photos you share are really awesome. It is good to meet the children. I love my child very much. I never leave him. He is my heart. I love him so much. I think you should not be leave him.
