When the kids are being quiet!!!

Last night when Ryan and I were still eating dinner, the kids had gone into Brenner's room and it was really quiet. So, we asked ourselves..."What are they up to?" Trying to decide if we should go see what mess they were making or just enjoy a few minutes of peace and quiet, we finished up our dinner. It turns out they were hiding in the closet waiting for us to come and find them. Kind of sad in a way that their parents never came looking for them. However, this morning, Joren wanted some popcorn (and of course he had to eat it in the family room). So, I sent him downstairs and stayed upstairs to pack for St. George. It was once again... quiet. I thought to myself... "he's just down there eating the popcorn and watching tv." This is what happens when a 21 month old is left alone with popcorn.



Most of the time when they are quiet they are making a mess. So, now I have to vacuum the family room, still pack, keep washing puked on clothes and sheets (yes, Joren kept me up sick all night last night... but seems perfectly fine and quite hyper this morning), clean up the house, keep the kids from killing each other, etc. etc. before we go to St. George today.
