The Adventures of Boyband CraZyTown

Well, we have officially survived our first family trip - it went very well :) We traveled to Minot, North Dakota, to spend the long weekend with my sister and her family. We had a great time with family, good food, some shopping and of course the Easter Bunny made a visit to our place. Jackson, Hudson, and Oliver have so much candy that they could start up their own candy store, and since Hudson and Oliver cannot even eat yet, that means Jackson thinks all the candy is for him so we find ourselves hiding it or John and I take a piece and eat it every time we walk past the bowls - these 2 bowls are big bowls and one is strictly chocolate and the other candy stuff. This snow needs to melt soon b/c I need to get walking. The boys also got some fun puzzles and toys, Jackson LOVES Cars (the movie) so he got some things from the dollar store connected to that movie.

Well things here continue to go very well. I have to say I am incredibly happy and just feel so blessed to have my 3, I mean 4 boys in the household. I think having a baby prior to having the twins has really mellowed me out. I couldn't ask for better kids, who are so maxed and relaxed. Don't get me wrong things are BUSY and it is a bit crazy when 2 babies are crying at the exact same time and a toddler is tugging your pant leg b/c he want milk or a "mighty machines dvd" but I know in the end it will be all A-OK and that stressing will not solve anything. I used to be a big HUGE STRESS BALL but since meeting John and becoming a mom I find myself more mellow and mellow, I think the stress may come when these boys become teenagers and start driving and me meeting their girlfriends :) We will be taking our first trip with the whole family as Easter to see my sister in ND so that will be fun, I am getting pedicures with my sisters while the dads watch the kids. Hope...
