Boy Oh Boys!

Yesterday, I had 3 extra boys: all nephews. They were the ages 4, 2, and 3 months. Teresa flew to California and Lucy had surgery so I was more than willing and happy to help out. They were playing and doing very well together and then nap time came. Tate and Allie went down really well, but Cole, the 3 month old, was another story. He didn't want to fall asleep and he was more than ready. I had him sleeping at two different times and then he would immediately wake up when I would lay him down. I finally got him to sleep again, but I couldn't move. I just let him lay on my tummy and sleep. Maggie got home from school and said, "Tate's awake and he is poopy." Oh what to do. I didn't want a crying baby, so I just told Maggie he will have to wait a few minutes. Well, my Maggie went and changed Tate. She came down and told me that she did it. She said she almost threw up, but she did it. I was so proud of my Maggie. Later upon inspection of the diaper, she had put it on backwards. All turned out well in the end. Mom and Dad came to help with the sleeping baby, Cole, and I was able to make dinner for the rest of the crew. It was an eventful day.
