Or, when my sis comes over with her threekiddos.<BR/><BR/>Here's my thoughts on that: I think the thing with having bonus kids all day is that they aren't used to the routine and I tend to not hold them to the same standards we'd hold our kids to. THEN, the novelty of having said bonus kids over for the day makes my kids SUPER hyper and so throws the whole day into overdrive.<BR/><BR/>Owlhaven who blogs over at the Ethiopian adoption blog posted a while ago about how she would've done things differently this last time when she brought her older girls home. She suggests that it would have been better to jump right into the household routines instead of easing the kids into them.<BR/><BR/>As far as baby proofing goes... I feel ya. Our older kids just hit the Lego stage and other toys that are deathly chocking hazards for babies and i am freaking out about how to have a baby around with these toys now.beBOLDjenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11430439816709121014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4927984056578142863.post-20880507435030474072008-01-08T13:31:00.000-05:002008-01-08T13:31:00.000-05:00Apryl:What a funny but also scary story!
