The sleeping babes.

Madilyn took Pupper for a walk. The thing was looking sad. Maybe it was sick, maybe it just wanted to go for a walk.
Pupper must have got scared of something. She just lay down and wouldn't go home with Madilyn.
At home, she slept with the kids.

Since the kids grew into toddlers it's been a madhouse!
Nobody had had the time to potty train the kids and they did their business in their nappies and got very dirty.
Except Kaisa. She's independent so she knows how to potty naturally.
Dad took the time to clean Josh.
His handsies.

The parents were mostly busy with work stuff. They were rushing to earn lots of money to build a ice house for the kids to live in.
A quiet lunch break!
Eventhough she had a mostly at home job she still needed to get out of the house. Didn't wanna leave the kids at home or with the nanny or send them to daycare so she took them with her. Josh wasn't happy, he felt left behind.
Before going out to work the parents tried to sort out the kids' needs. Pretty much all got done.
Except Kaisa was super super tired. Luckily she could sleep in one of the chairs outside.

This little troublemaker joined the household! He's rolling around Pupper's pee.
Madilyn made the first contact with the new family member.
He is well... male. His name is Muki. He is quite pure breed dachshund, just with little tweaks. Still a puppy. His traits are troublemaker, couch potato and hunter. He was just added to the family so that Pupper wouldn't feel lonely.

Speaking of lonely...
Matthew and Josh really needed the company of their parents when they had nightmares.
Dad was there to calm them down.
A little midnight snack and off to bed they went.

Breakfast with dad and Josh.

Oh the parents got enough money to pretty much finish the kitchen:
This kitchen was a real challenge. It was really hard to cover up the ever changing colour of the foundation. But it's liveable and usable, the kitchen. The stairs area, behind the half wall obviously still needs work.

Josh getting to know Pupper.
And Muki. While Matthew and Kaisa bable to each other.
Just so much cuteness!
