Last night after we supposedly put all the kids in bed, Matt and I went to the basement to put up as much insulation as we could. When we came upstairs, I went to check on the kids and found Katie's bed empty. After my heart about jumped out of my throat, I went checking all through the house. This is where we found her. It was about the cutest thing ever. So this morning, we asked Jacob about it and he said that he had been scared so he asked Katie to come and sleep with him to which she obliged. I love to see little glimpses of the kids loving and caring for each other. I feel so happy to be able to have kids and to raise them and teach them what Heavenly Father wants them to know. Even through all the frustration which by the way, happens at least once a day, I love them so much and wouldn't trade being a mom for anything in the world. Except maybe a really fantastic candy bar....... JUST KIDDING!

Making it all worth it!

The nice thing is that you can have kids AND a fantastic candy bar! You can just blame the extra weight on pregnancy! That's what I do ... except my secret indulgence is pie! LOL!
What kind of candy bar? Because I think I'm willing to trade a few of my kids in for a 20 gallon bucket of M&Ms.
I bet it was super scary to find Katie's bed empty. I'm glad that it turned out to be so cute. There has been quite a few times that Caleb has fallen off of his bed (ok that part happens every night, multiple times) and has been so covered by his accompanying blanket that in a sleep deprived stupor I can't find him rght away. Ok, that sounded parentally pathetic - but sometimes he wiggles his way into some corner, all curled up and blankety... Anyways, I hate the stomach jumping feeling. Even though he's always in the room still.
