England Math: 1+1=4

In a frenzy of scrapping the other day, this idea just came to me. Marty and I are always saying to each other, "We made ALL of them!" It's a pretty awesome thought! We were married almost 11 years ago and somehow, we have brought 4 little people into the world. This layout tells the story of why we have so many kids. The journaling reads: The plan was 2 kids. Then when they were both boys, we went for #3 which turned out to be #3 and #4. Although having all 4 of you was not the original plan, we’re sure glad it turned out that way!
We joke that Mackenzie is our "bonus boy" because we were trying for Lauren and he came along for the ride! But he's our little sweetie and we are so blessed to have all 4 of those little monkeys. They drive us crazy on a daily basis but we are so thankful for all of them.
I used Nancie Rowe-Janitz and Michelle Coleman's All-American kit to scrap this. The stamped alpha is also Nancie's (Shmootzy Alpha Stamps). All of this is available at Scrap Artist.

    The exact same thing happened to my sister and her husband... they had 2 boys, tried for the girl and ended up with twin girls! Myself, I tried for the girl and ended up with a boy for the third time... but only one! Great layout!
