Mac-N-Cheese

They must have my blood in them. I LOVE mac-n-cheese. I love it with hot dogs or tuna. I love it homemade, spicy or just from a plain ol' box. They love it too! Aiden will even ask for mac n cheeeeese. In the picture of Aiden above he is rubbing his belly saying yummy mac-n-cheese.

Christmas memories...

All we needed to get Aiden was a mack truck from cars and he would have been happy. Mia's inner artist is coming alive with her new markers and crayons. They both love the easel. Seth is dancing away to his blue's clue's dvd. The best was having all the family around and spending time with loved ones.

Two little Monkeys,,,

I know I shouldn't allow this but it helps to get them tired.

Mia inspecting dads hats...

Mia loves hats! She disappeared one day and I found her in our room checking out dads hats.

A winter bug visits

Aiden and Seth have been fighting a fever for a couple of days. This means I will not get much sleep. Last night was especially tough. I was up with Aiden until two and then Seth took over at four. He was especially tough. The only place he would not cry was lying on my chest. Although, I enjoy this time, Sethers, is getting quite heavy. I felt like a zombie this morning. I didn't ever hear Anthony leave for work and only woke up to the sound of Skyler leaving for school.

Faster than you can say....

Triplets can make a clean room messy in about .0358 seconds.

Thanksgiving Weekend

We had a nice extended weekend. We got our house turned into the winter wonderland and our lights on outside. We already have Mia and Aiden saying, "Ho, Ho, Ho." Dad watched Rudolph, Frosty and Kris Kringle last night with the big kids, too. Even though it is cold outside, my little guys need to get outside to let off some steam.

A little of code talk between the trips....

and one little fall by Mia...her poor tushy.

The Vulture

Mia eats three times the amount of the boys. She is averaging three hot dogs a day....that can't be good, but she is obsessed with them. I am beginning to think she has worms or a hyperthyroid issue. Every time the doctor sees her he asks, "Is she eating okay?" I have no idea where all this food goes, because she is so skinny. She will finish her meal and then gladly make her way to eat brothers tray and help them. Then she will come by each of us and enjoy our dinners, as well. Her brothers are just wishing they could eat in peace! No such luck. If you don't want to share, don't eat in front of Mia.

Disneyland Time

I got to sneak away for a day with my mom and nephew, Nathan. We went down to Disneyland for the day. We had a blast. I love my time with Nathan. I wish we could do more together more often. It will be a fun day when we all go with the trips and twins. Radojka and I will probably be taking several Tylenol on that day. I can only imagine what princess Mia and Isa will be.

Playtime with dad

Game day

Dad was getting his little team ready for game day. Mia and Aiden have mastered catching the football from 50 inches away.

Run Circles around you

Pumpkin Princess

They all want to go outside the moment they are dressed. Mia loves to wear hats, goggles or headbands.

So you think you can dance?

Ketchup and Crackers

Doesn't everyone like graham crackers and ketchup?

Bathtime!

They all love their bath time but Seth was really enjoying it tonight.

Thomas the choo choo

Seth loves his Thomas the choo choo! He can ride it and ride it and ride it. Mia likes it but after a couple of laps, she is ready for something else. Aiden is deathly afraid of it. I think if it wasn't Thomas he would be okay with it. He has been afraid of Thomas since I can remember.

Mia filling up Mom's shoes

Mia is like the middle child

Mia seems to connect with both the boys. She knows how to tone it down to play with Seth. She also knows how to handle the vivacious ways of Aiden. Seth recently crawled up next to Mia in the evening. It was the first we had really seen him want to be up close. Maybe he knows when they are sleeping it is okay. Mia is already a great sister to both her brothers.

The Stealth Climber

As a mom, you learn to use all your senses in taking care of your kids. As a mom of triplets you just lose your senses. Sorry, I couldn't resist. Seriously, I have this one little guy who is so quiet as he moves about. As I was trying to drag Aiden out of the dishwasher (yes, he was actually trying to climb inside it), Seth snuck by me and conquered the table. I heard the nebulizer turn on and what do I see, Seth standing on the table.

Stud Finder

Mia loves to help her dad with his "honey do's". He was getting ready to strap the dresser to the wall (because someone won't stop climbing things....) when he noticed Mia was using one of his tools. She must have been watching him because she was doing pretty good. Of course, when mamma came in I had to inform her that in life it is really not that easy to find a stud. (yuk yuk yuk)

Future Blogger

Maybe she will be a future blogger like her mom or maybe she will be into sports....like her mom! She has a lot of my traits, so far. She has my silliness and my wonderful patience (cough, cough).

The Parade

We all had quite an experience with the old Tulare Fair Parade. I have the battle wounds to prove it. Needless to say, Seth did not handle the noise from the bands and cheering kids. I had to leave with him early. Aiden and Mia did really good and enjoyed the parade. Aiden got a little upset over the loud truck horns in the end, but overall did good. Mia fell in love with her first lollipop and would not share with anyone.

Another boo boo for Aiden

Aiden somehow ran into the wall outside. I think he was running from Mia and was not looking where he was going. Well, the stucco wall did a little number on his lip and hand. He was upset for awhile but was back to his old self quickly. I still hate to see him get hurt. I also, had to post this cute picture of Seth. They both love the Thomas the Train ride we got from a friend. Now we just need the battery to work...lol.

Teacher Jaclyn

My name is Seth and I am excited about my new teacher, Jaclyn. She comes by every morning to play with me. We are still getting to know each other. At first I get mad, cause she makes the tv turn off. After a while, I learn there are other fun things to do. We sing and look at pictures. We play with toys. She is teaching me to look at people and things. She pushes me to climb to new heights. She challenges me to go to dark, scary places. She has taught me that grass can be fun to walk on. She is using these cool pictures to explain what I am going to do. Most of all, she makes me smile!

Good Aiden, Bad Aiden

Aiden is my most challenging when it comes to sharing, taking things and running off. He has this super sweet side and then has this somewhat evil side.

Mia's team

Mia has been saying no for just about everything lately, but I really don't think she quite understands its use yet.

Seth's first Day of Therapy

Seth had his first day of ABA therapy. They come to our house every week day for two hours. His coach seems very nice. He was a little shy today but shows signs of making progress. She noticed his love for music and TV today. She also got to see his amazing smile and contagious laugh. He started clapping this week, so that shows he is improving.
We are truly blessed to have such opportunities to help Seth. This is all state funded for now. I can't imagine if he didn't have these opportunities. I will try to take pics tomorrow of him and his new teacher. I hope to make Seth the best he can be and hope that he will someday be in mainstream class along side his brother and sister. Time will tell. Either way, it will all be good.




Aiden and Mia go visit Nanny Teetee next door during Seth's therapy. We had them here to start but Aiden and Mia were taking over the session.
