Hectic House

We have been pleasantly invaded by relatives here to visit Grandma Siebert: Mommy's sister Adrianna and her daughters, Olivia and Selena, and Mommy's brother Pete and his kids, Jake, Luke, and Molly. Selena especially likes swimming, so we have been in the pool twice a day today and yesterday. Jake is obsessed with frogs and insisted on going up to the pond to find some. Sure enough, he caught two and is keeping them in a bucket outside.

Molly and Hannah are a frightening pair; one never knows what they will do next. Usually they just take out all the toys and make huge messes- today they covered floors with Lincoln logs, baby dolls, play food, and Mr. Potato Head. They tried to play in my bedroom, but fortunately Amanda discovered them and kicked them out before they had done too much damage.

I thought they were pretty safe playing outside, but apparently I was wrong. I got suspicious when I spotted them hauling a bucket across the lawn, chasing a kitten. Further investigation revealed that they had emptied several water bottles and some soap into the pail and were planning to give the poor kitties a bath. (Or drown them!)
