We got a package from my mom and dad today. Among other goodies, Mom included a snack-sized baggie that held 2 Rainbow Loom rubber bands and a single gray Perler bead that we had left at their house in October. #nowonderthekidsloveher

Rare are the nights when no kids talk/cry out in their sleep or venture in to use our bathroom. Sure makes me appreciate 7 hours of uninterrupted sleep! #happyFriday

First time on skates for both of my boys. You can't even fathom the entertainment.

As I eat my breakfast this morning, I wonder if there are other parents of small children who eat their yogurt with a kid's spoon. And I wonder if I will continue to do so even after my children are grown. Because they really ARE the perfect size...

My sleeping beauties. Who have their own rooms, but still sometimes prefer to sleep together.

When her mother fails to bring mistletoe into the home after being asked repeatedly to do so, the eldest daughter takes matters into her own hands. And then stands below it until someone passes by.

The Christmas gift that didn't make it home safely from school. Macie is devastated. Between sobs, she explained that she had "worked on it for 45 DAYS!".

And Macie's teacher saves the day!

The decision to give them their Christmas craft early was a good one. #happyandquietplaydate

Many thanks to Aunt Carla, beautician-for-a-day, for prepping the girls for the Jeffnjane Schaeperkoetter Christmas Open House. And a peek at Buddy zip-lining in the background.

It wouldn't be real if all 16 of them were looking at the camera and smiling, right?!?

Sadly (at least for the kids!), Buddy's 2013 stay at our home has come to an end. Check out his 24 days of antics below in the collage...
