Aiden's First Haircut

Aiden had his first haircut today with his big brother, Jacob. He looks so big now!

Christmas with the family

Last night we had a great night over at Uncle Emil and Aunt Radojka's house. The food was great! I only wished we could have stayed longer. It was also the first time Mia walked on her own. Earlier in the night she was doing this walk crawl that made all of us think of the movie Exorsist.

Babies dedication

The babies had their dedication at Tulare First Baptist Church last night. It went really, really good. Seth cried the whole time, mainly cause he really can't handle loud noises. Aiden and Mia were great, though.

Playing with Dad

When dad gets home from work, they usually get some good play time in.

First Visit with Santa

We had our first visit with Santa and it went pretty good. Aiden poked his eye right before we went up so he appeared to be crying but wasn't. We waited about 45 minutes in line and all three wear so good. Seth was eating my shirt, as you can tell in the photo. He has two more molars coming in. That will make four for each! Considering trying to get three one years olds in a photo, I think this photo turned out great!

Daddy's Boy

When dad is home on the weekends, one will usually find Aiden just sitting by him. He loves to hang around his daddy. In this picture, dad is very tired from a long night of Mia being up most the night. I am also adding a picture of our tree for my mom.

The Christmas Quilt

Every year I hang up this snowman quilt during the holidays. I love this quilt. I ended up adding an extra nail because someone else ended up loving it, too.

Decorating the tree

Yes, I know it is a bit late! We also got the house lights up this weekend, finally. Then, I had to spend a couple of hours driving around trying to find a fuse for the lights. This is our first year with a fake tree and it came out smaller than we thought it would. It is still very beautiful! I am going to go out the day after xmas and try to get some xmas decorations for next year. Last night was soooo nice. Aiden slept through again, Mia woke up only at 5 and Seth woke up around 12. I feel so refreshed. Anthony on the other hand is coming down with something.

Seth is walking

Seth has really started to walk more now. Not my little boy!

Top Gun Toddler

Aiden wore my favorite style jacket today. He was sooooo handsome in it. I hope to find a black one for Seth and a pink one for Mia.

Celebrating the Eagles

I tried to get some good pictures of the clan in their Eagles gear, but it wasn't working today. I either need to get a better camera or teach them all to be perfectly still when I am trying to take their picture. I don't see either happening in the near future. I think Seth is already siding with his dad. He felt like he was being a traitor to the other team he seems to wear....The Raiders. I told Anthony they can not support the Raiders till Al Davis learns when to say when.

Costco Trip

We were off to another Costco trip. They have my favorite diapers and the best price money can by. I think the kirkland diapers are better than Huggies even. So far this has been a week of poop. Aiden going too much and Mia not being able to. I never thought I would become an expert of poop type.

Crazy hair Aiden

It looks like Aiden might have some curly hair. All three's hair is so different. Seth's is coarse and short. Mia's is a little lighter and full of body. Aiden's has mood swings. Sometimes it is a calm curl and wave, but when excited it starts to curl like crazy!

Cold Days

The days have finally began to feel like winter. The heat is on and the flip flops are put away. Here is a picture of the neighborhood cat who adopted us. His name is Raider. He was cold and decided to burrow into my flower box for some warmth. Now I know most of you are laughing at the thought of 45 degrees being cold, but when that is what you are used to it is cold.

The Next Dancer

Mia has always been our little dancer. Seth is now taking after her and starting to dance at songs like Handy Manny and the Hot Dog Dance on Mickey's Playhouse.

Grandpa's Little Ladies

I think Mia and Isa will be great friends throughout life. I have countless memories of me and my cousins, Amy and Sandy. They both mean so much to me. I hope these two grow up knowing they are there for each other. They are only 10 months apart in age. I can already imagine the sleepovers! Hopefully, they won't get in trouble like we did at grandma's house.

Thanksgiving

I didn't get one good picture this thanksgiving, so here is a clip I took the day before of the babies. Sethers is getting good at walking and I will have to post that soon. Aiden is working his way to a run now and his favorite past time is getting into anything he shouldn't. Mia is cruising good and is still the best at patty cake and clapping. Aiden and Mia both wave by now, too.

Mimi

I was trying to get Mia in her Little Turkey shirt, but she was not cooperating. This is the best I could do.

More pics of the party

I have had a terrible week when it comes to feeling in control. I guess I gave that up when I had these three little angels. I was amazed to have been thrown up on anywhere from 2 to 5 times a day. It was just my boys dealing with some sort of bug. They seem to be doing better today. We had a great thanksgiving dinner at Tom and Lynn's last night. It was nice to see everyone. I wish I had more time to sit and chat with everyone, especially the ones I don't see very often. I didn't get any pictures. So I will post more pics from the birthday party. I will try to get some pics this week to put up, as well.

Just chatting

Emilia and Aiden have gotten quite talkative at dinner time. Seth is not as talkative and even gets irritated by it at times. Luckily, he was taking a little nap and missed out on this action.

Formal and Reunion Weekend

We had a weekend of winter formals, 20 year class reunions and benefit balls. Jacob went to his winter formal, Jacque went to a benefit ball, and Anthony and I went to his 20 year high school reunion. I don't care how you put it, you feel old when you say you are attending a 20 year reunion. He ran into a lot of long lost friends and had a great time. I was under the weather so I came home early and made him go back. It was only 1/2 a mile from our house. He is one of those boys who ended up creating a great life in his hometown. He almost got the award for most kids....lol. It was a restful night for me. I was able to take nightquil for the first time in over a year and I slept till 6AM. The babies spent the night with grandma and grandpa. Thank god for grandparents!!!!

From loving the bouncer to the bounce house!

This girl loves to bounce.



Seth was not so sure.

New Set of Wheels

The babies all got a new set of wheels. Of course they shared it with their cousins. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Again!

Too Busy

Yeah, so I basically suck as a blogger right now. I just can't find the time and now when I sit at the computer one of three will usually come by and bug until I give in and play. The party was great and I will post pictures soon. Aiden was sick and now all three are sick, including me. Aiden now is on a second nebulizer medicine to help with his wheezing. Anytime he gets sick he starts being asthmatic. Lets just hope the antibiotics all kick in. Well for now, here is a pick of my boys.

My baby's have BIG Heads

My babies heads were 48cm (Seth), 46.8cm (Emilia), and 48.1cm (Aiden). Emilia was 75 percentile for head size and length. Emilia is 30 inches long, Aiden and Seth were both 29 3/4 inches. Seth is our butterball at 22lbs, Aiden at 20lbs 11 oz. and Mia was 18lbs and 15 oz. She gained good weight these past few months! Not bad for triplets born 5 weeks early!

Where has the time gone?

I am sorry to not be posting as much, but I just can't find time during the day. Monday our babies turned one. I wanted to put a nice blog about that but it is now Wednesday and still no time. So here is a short one on the week so far. I have been preparing for their party on Saturday. The babies got four shots each at the doctors on Tuesday. They did really good. I chose the wrong night to start the cry it out theory on Mia. So I will wait until after the party to start that again. I have also started finger foods with the babies, but they still seem to choke on most stuff. Hopefully, in time it will get better.

Rest of my world: Skyler's basketball team is undefeated so far. Jake is busy with yearbook picture taking. Jacque is a busy working college student. Anthony is starting up this new equipment at work and has been working most nights and is on call quite a bit. This has made the past week a little harder because he hasn't been there to help at night, if needed. He also went to a golf tourney this past weekend over at the coast. Of course, we lost power that night and I was totally unprepared while two babies screamed in their cribs. So from now on I will keep flashlights in several rooms, including the babies room.

Halloween Pics

Carving Pumpkins

As my husband discusses with the kids on how the car, Christine, should be properly destroyed, we carve pumpkins. I miss out on all the scary movies every year cause I can not handle scary movies. I usually have nightmares and lose sleep. I know it's pathetic, but it is what it is. Mia didnt really cares for the pumpkin guts, but of course the boys did. Oh and according to Anthony, Christien should be melted down and dumped in the bottom of the ocean.
