An hour at the gym with friends
I didn't get to take as many pictures as I usually do, and after we had left, I realized that I hadn't taken any pictures of Jaden. The reason is that we brought Rebekah and Joshua with us, so I was trying to keep track of 4 kids going 4 different directions. They all had a blast, and the girls are so excited that Rebekah and Joshua will be staying at our house during the day (starting in about 3 weeks or so). I hope we will get to go on a lot of outings... If I can teach them all to stay together, or maybe I can find a four-seater stroller. Anyone know where I can get one of those? I need it to be able to fold up and fit in the car, too. Let me know.
Books to read:
- Diary of a Mad Mother to Be by Laura Wolf
- Diary of a Mad Bride by Laura Wolf
- The Nanny Diaries by Emma Mclaughlin and Nicola Kraus
- Love in the Driest Season by Neely Tucker
- Restavec by Jean-Robert Cadet

You can get 4-seater strollers-- but I don't recommend it. They run in the several thousand dollar range and take up an awful lot of room. My suggested solution: a double for the little ones, and have the older ones walk. They make tethers that you can put around a kid's wrist and attach to the stroller, to keep them with you. And Morgan is little enough you could still sling her if the older ones needed a break once in a while.
Another option is to get or make a walking rope (used in preschools and families with several small children-- a "rope" or line made of cloth, with rings sewed in for the children to hold on to.) It will take some training to get them to hold on to the rope, but you can practice in the back yard, then the neighborhood, and finally out in public. A sling might still be a good idea for when the littlest ones get too tired.
