The McDonald Boys

This past weekend we had all my sister's boys stay with us as part of a birthday gift to my sister. Cool gift, huh? I would love that as a birthday present to be able to spend the weekend at home with no kids and do nothing. hint... hint... :-)

This is the only picture I got of the four of them the entire weekend and it probably the only time that they all sat still long enough for me to take a picture. The only reason it looks so calm is because we put a movie on!!!

We were pretty much running around the entire weekend, ran the dishwasher twice a day, broke up several fights but had fun doing it. Matthew is such a sweetie and offered to help me clean up after every meal. He is almost four and loves to clean! We went the park, went out for frozen yogurt, rode bikes, played Wii, went back to the park, ate a lot! Matthew even helped Sean all day Saturday clean the pool. He really is such a good little helper! Sunday Sean and I came home and literally crashed on the couch while Ariana napped.

The best part was Ariana loved all the attention she got all weekend. She loves the boys...

It is hard to leave the kiddos but Sean and I have done it a few times and it is soooooo nice to get away. It really makes you appreciate what you have! Maybe something to do before you have baby # 2. :-)
