It seems like I'm constantly multi-tasking. I know most of you can relate, especially when you're parenting little ones, but have you ever done this?
Yesterday I put Max in the living room with several toys while DJ was at the kitchen table doing his homework. Noah and Lincoln were coming in and out from the backyard as they played. While all this was going on I was trying to wash and cut vegetables for a salad plus keep an eye on Max. I was doing this while answering questions from DJ and helping with the little guys' requests.
I continued to answer 3rd grade math questions and fix a sippy cup of milk. Then I peaked in the living room to check on Max. He was gone. I looked down the hallway. He wasn't there. My heart sunk. I had that panic feeling. Where did my scooting 6 month old go?
Then I realized.....he was in my arms. At some point I had picked him up!
A few pictures and a video....just for fun.
Lincoln and Max

Lincoln loves his baby brother.

Tom was on a 10 day trip (TEN DAYS). I was putting Lincoln to bed and then walked into DJ and Noah's room. I found DJ reading the Bible to Noah. It was a sweet moment because nobody told them to do this. I had to take a picture.

DJ and his friend Isaac were looking for ants in the backyard. They were making an ant farm. Noah and Lincoln helped too.

It might not be the best choice but it works for us. Noah and Lincoln sit on the counter and watch DJ leave for school in the mornings. Sometimes they even eat breakfast here.
