Riley: So is it really loud at your house all the time?
Brooklyn: Yes! Sometimes all the babies are crying at the same time!
Riley: That is the same way at our house. I can hardly hear myself think!
The Quints and the Quads check out the giraffes
Ryder and Rustin---best buddies!
Looking at the Rhinos---every time we get together with someone whose kids are the same age as mine, I am reminded of how SHORT we are---With me being 5' 2" and Jayson being 5' 7", our kids aren't going to be starring on any basketball teams!
Lunch Break: Kassidy, Kaydence, Kyndall, Rustin, and Ryder
Lexie, Rylee, Maddox, Maureen (mom), Matt (dad), and Shilah
Alyssa, Brooklyn, Grandma Wilkinson, Riley, Kaiya
Quads + Quints: Rylee, Shilah, Lexie, Maddox, Ryder, Kyndall, Rustin, Kassidy, Kaydence. We always get a lot of interesting looks and comments when we take the quints places, but we REALLY got some looks with both families together!
Riley and Grandma Wilkinson---I love this picture!
5 little monkeys looking at 5 little monkeys
The Dads with all the kids---is that a crazy amount of kids, or what!!!
PTBC Update: Today was day 2 of "Potty Training Boot Camp"....pretty much more of the same. Lots of accidents (10-#1 and 2-#2) and only Rustin has figured out how to make things come out on the potty. Spot Shot has become my new best friend. I am confident that the rest of the kiddos will catch on any day now...at least that is what I keep telling myself :-)

What great pictures. I love the hippo sculpture shot. Who would ever believe that was only two families?
Oh dear, that poor little Quad boy... FIVE sisters???
fun trip. Yay for Rustin setting the example -- the others will follow soon.
We had so much fun. I also wish you guys lived closer. We'll have to make it a point to get together when you travel our way (maybe one day we'll come visit you) I love the elephant picture....I don't know if you noticed Maddox and Ryder holding hands! Adorable!
I have kept up with your blog for quite a while now (but never comment... yes I am a total lurker) & i am always amazed how soothly you manage your load. Seeing all of those kids together is truly an overwhelming inspiration. Good job mama!
And good luck with potty training. urgh... one at a time is tricky enough. the best kept secret i know in that department is called "Nature's Miracle." It is carpet cleaner for cleaning up pet messes & it really is a miracle... it does not leave a residue on the carpet like some carpet cleaners do... thus attracting later stains. And you can buy it the gallon... sounds like you might need a few. :)
Good Luck! Can't wait to hear how it all turns out!
I second the Nature's Miracle. I have not bought it again in Texas (use BioKleen purchased at Austin Baby), but it was miraculous how well it worked in Washington when he was an infant.
You buy it at a pet store.
