My $5 rummage sale find has been THE toy of the week.
However, introducing ONE "new" toy to a room full of boys isn’t always pretty.
There are tears shed.
And all out battles of the wills.
But then there are brotherly moments like these…
when I melt like a popsicle in the desert!
4tunate is a place to chronicle our unexpected life with quadruplet boys {plus our bonus baby Hudson} and the joys and challenges that come along with this ride! We hope you find encouragement here as we share our story of God’s faithfulness.

jen, laughing out loud right now! LOOOOOVE the post! i love how you tell a story through pictures—you are so creative, little mama…that’s why i love you so! (well, not the only reason, but one of the many!) 🙂
SOOOO BIG!! They are getting so big and so handsome!! I love this post Jen and your photos.. talent, talent, talent!!
I love you all so much.

Jen, that is ADORABLE! I love seeing the boys push eachother around. I can’t wait to see my boys doing stuff like that together. (In between the wrestling matches and temper tantrums, I’m sure!) Speaking of adorable, your new house looks BEAUTIFUL! We need a virtual tour or something!
What an AWESOME find! A Thomas anything for five bucks is great! My son would be jealous. I’m sure we’d have tears, too, if Steven would have to share! I love your picture story.
Hi Jen-
Your boys are adorable!
Don’t you love when the cheap toys are what they like, and then when you buy the expensive ones, they don’t like them?! Thats toddlers for you!!

$5! Way to go Momma! Awesome toy. I love it when my girls decide to play nicely together 🙂
What a great find! Loved seeing them help each other out. SO sweet!
Jen,
How do you keep your house so clean is my question!!!!

Your heart must melt a lot with these sweet boys! I love the Thomas train!

Jackson would be so jealous if he saw that! He wants one, but I think at age 4 and 35 lbs, he’s a wee bit too big for it now!
AHHH Jen and Brad…how sweet! The tears are even precious!! But look how well they do share!!! 🙂 Too sweet, guys!! ~Sioby
I’d melt too!
Very precious, all of them.
I am a frequent reader, but I think this is my first comment. First of all, let me say that your boys are simply gorgeous and you are so very, quadruply blessed! I love reading your updates and especially enjoy all of the pictures and videos of your handsome quartet!
I have twin boys who just turned two, so many times I am able to smile and nod when I recognize a similar experience. If we get “one new toy” we also have tears, battles of wills, and thankfully, moments of brotherly love! However, I am completely in awe of how you manage it with four! I am further in awe of how amazingly clean your house is! I noticed that another commenter mentioned the same thing! Please, please, for my own sanity…tell me that you have help with housecleaning and that you are not doing all of that yourself, in addition to caring for quads! Please!
Thanks for the terrific blog! Please feel free to check out ours!

So cute!!! 🙂 Gotta love those yard sale toys that end up being the favorites….kids are so easy to please!
My twins have one of Thomas ride-ons, plus a couple of others. They love it but don’t fight over it cause the others have compartments that they choose to fight over. Great pictures as always.
OMGosh Jen! That video was so sweet! I am feeling so sappy tonight that i have tears watching that. ADORABLE!
Isn’t it the best when you find a toy that works magic like that and yet it costs nothing?!?
So cute. Don’t you love those rummage sale finds? How do you get the white border around your pictures – they are stunning as usual.
My little niece LOVES thomas the train!!! I bet they had a ball plaing on that!!!-sioby
Oh, so sweet that last pic! We’ve had very similar battles at our house over a ride-on schoolbus, and I LOVE it when one child pushes another around the house on it! Much better than when one child pushes another OFF!
