Equation

Here is a summary of my day:

My two kids
+
two nanny kids
+
two of my friends kids
+
one amazingly creative and fun-loving husband
+
two generous grandparents

= lunch complete with nose picking

= a little butt pinching

= match box car races

= match box car demolition derby

= playing on an antique swing set at Nana and Grandpa's

= drinking Trinidadian juices from unmarked bottles


= digging in the sand

= constructing with construction leftovers


= showing off in front of your friends


= Big Mac in his niche

= so much more fun than could even be captured in these photographs.

Did I mention I was exhausted?

Thanks mostly to my husband, the kids had a blast though! I'd do it again in a second. The truth is, I've had playdates with 2 kids that were a thousand times more stressful than our home was with these 6 kids.

So cute!! You even got Nuggey on his birthday! How fun :)

I love the picture you took of him on the swing set!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, I just realized I never got you e-mailed back. Sorry...life has been crazy busy...just like I know it has been for you, as well!

Therefore, this should link you back to my blog :)
