Hansen and Kolton come to visit!

The first part of March we were able to watch Kolton and Hansen while Rachel and Dean went to San Francisco. Mom helped out as well, which was really nice. The boys were sooooooo good. I won't say it was easy having two extra kids but it was really enjoyable. I fell in love with Kolton, who I haven't been as close to as I was to Hansen. Of course, Hansen is now too old for Aunt Jess so I'm glad Kolton and I can be friends. By the weekend, Kolton was even calling me mom! Ha Ha. I didn't take as many pictures as I should have, only because I was busy. I was happy to watch them and would gladly do it again!
I made play doh for the kids

Gotta have pizza when Hansen man comes! He wanted pepperoni and sausage. I thought that was cute.

Kolton had fun chasing Smokey. I caught him looking under my bed a few times making meow noises.
Kolton would NOT ever let me feed him. I love that he is saying "cheese" for this picture.
Hunter was seriously getting stressed out every time Kolton ate. He couldn't believe that Kolton just threw food on the floor, especially when he was finished. I had to explain that all kids do that!
It wasn't very warm but Hansen really wanted to be outside. I love that Hansen doesn't go down the slide the NORMAL way. Ha Ha.

Look at these two cute kids in the laundry basket
Hunter tied his belt onto the laundry basket to give Kolty a ride.
This cute boy got kind of spoiled by my kids. Savannah kept him in her room with toys for 2 hours while I was teaching piano. She taught him how to say "nana" for Savannah. Hunter had fun playing with him. Brinley fixed his bed in the playpen with pillows and blankets and stuffed animals. She even sat in with him to help him go to sleep for his nap. 
Bath time was a little crazy. Brinley said, "Mom, I think I'm too old to bath with Hansen now." I think she is probably right. Besides, I don't think I could handle four in the tub.
They let the chickens out and played with them for a while.
Don't you love how Brinley can catch and carry two at a time?
I was glad to have someone who would collect the eggs every day. My kids are kind of sick of it but Hansen headed out early every morning to check. He even came in once and said, "Here is one egg and there is one more on the way. The chicken is laying it right now so I will check later." 
This little girl LOVES all animals.
