6! 5! 4! 3! 2! 1! I think they out-number me.

This is why I have TWO multi-station art easels. So that five kids can color at once.

Then we went to Murphy Park. They built "secret agent hideouts" in the sand. According to them, Caed's is a dungeon. Laura's is a pyramid. Ollie's is a tunnel. Karen's is a castle. 

Here is David playing in the sand for the first time:

A Day with the Collins Boys

Things I hear when I have extra boys that I don't hear when I have extra girls:

1) Is my head bleeding right here? (It wasn't. Just sweat.)

2) Your bathroom stinks. I think Caed peed on the floor. //Caed, huh? Not you?

3) I'm the blue guy and I have to make a whole army of blue guys.

Things I heard when I have kids of nerdy parents that I don't hear when I have non-nerdy kids:

1) It's not a DARLEK. It's a DALEX-ES. It's from Dr. Who.

2) Stupid Angry Birds aren't exploding!

3) No, I don't want to play outside. I want to play Lord of the Rings instead.
