All 4 fun and fun 4 all!

Caroline is my sister Laura's daughter. She's 3 weeks older than Leah. They are best buds.

These are my nieces Joanna and Deborah. Daughters of Kris.
They are best buds with Leah also.Together they are...THE FEARSOME FOURSOME!

Not really, I just wanted to say that.These guys cracked us up.

I have a funny story to tell. When we arrived in NC on Sat. night, we were having a good time watching the three girls together and postulating how it would be with 4 toddlers in the house after the Brittens arrived the next day. We figured it could get pretty bad after we witnessed "The Flip Flop Incident". So Leah shows up and immediately takes over the one pair of flip flops that the twins own. They were clear with green straps and she loved them at first sight. Of course this bothered Deborah, who usually wore the flip flops. (I'll just say floppies because that's what Leah calls them.) So now Leah is happy as a clam and Deborah is fit to be tied. Now Joanna is upset because she thinks she needs them too. So I told Leah to go get hers out of her bag. Amazingly, we had brought two pairs. Perfect right? Wrong. By this time, Leah had reclaimed her own purple pair and given her green pair to Deborah. But this horked Joanna off because now Deborah has a 'new' pair and she gets stuck with her old clear pair. Sound like toddlers to you? It does to me. By this time they are all three crying and we are wondering what it will be like when Caroline arrives. We eventually got it figured out so Leah got the clear pair and the twins had Leah's.
As it turned out Caroline didn't even want to wear floppies so we were safe there. The girls actually played extremely well the whole week and had very few toddler/sharing issues. Thank God!
