Too tired for dancy dance time

Okay, these guys are too tired to dance with me today. So I just danced by myself and took pictures of them watching me. If you are wondering I danced to Kelly's Hardware Store from Handy Manny and ABC Gospel from Choo Choo Soul.

My Early Birds

My babies were all born early. I held them in me as long as I could. I had the help of a great doctor and amazing staff at Fresno Community. Aiden and Mia almost weighed 6lbs and Seth was 4lbs 7 ounces. I also have to thank Valley Children's for saving Aiden's life, too. Aiden had a tear in his lung that made his breathing very labored. They transferred Aiden to Valley Children's a day later to repair his lung. They fixed him up and he and Seth came home a day apart. He actually beat Seth home. I had all babies home in 11 days. I know I am blessed and my story is much happier than most triplet moms out there.

This is why I am supporting March for Babies. This experience in my life makes me want to support and prevent anyone else from having to go through the heartache of a premature baby.

Through March of Dimes research and support many moms and babies will have a great beginning in their life. Please help out in any way you can to support us in our March for babies...no sponsor is too small.

Jacque's First Car

After years of driving my ol' pickup from college, Jacque saved up to get her first car! Congrats on your new ride, Jacque. You are the bomb.com!

Dad brainwashing Aiden

Aiden is a very, very active boy. The only place he seems to chill is with dad. He will watch dad play his PSP for a long time. (the PSP that was bought for me but somehow ended up his...hmmmmm) This is also the place he goes to when the scary Thomas the Train comes on. He is very afraid of that show. If dad is not around, he usually hides behind a chair as he watches it.

Feeling blue

Another year over for the Eagles! I think mom had a harder time after the game than the babies did. They seemed to adjust fine after the sting of defeat.

Getting ready for the big game

What? You think Eagles will lose! Ha, I laugh at that!


Those little red birds are going down!



Do we need to have this discussion again? I didn't think so.

Mid-afternoon playtime

Mia finally goes down for a nap and it is just me and the boys. Seth started this new wing flapping thing today and Aiden is on his horsey. I say his horsey because he is the only one that can get on and off it and make it rock on his own.

Skinny Minnie

Mia's favorite foods are rice and tamales. She can't get enough of them. Aiden's favorite spot is dad's chair. He is keeping it warm while dad is away on business in Chicago.

Getting outside

I attempted to take them outside yesterday for a bit. It has been getting about 60 degrees during the afternoon. It is just too nice to stay indoors. We played for awhile but it was very hard to keep Mia from eating the rocks, Seth from eating all the leaves and Aiden from going to explore everything. If Aiden could climb the trees he would.

Hide and Seek

Aiden likes to find little places to hide. His latest hang out is under the changing table. Which we had to strap to the wall because he pulled it down on himself while trying to climb it one day.

Bath Time

I still individually bathe them in a tub at our kitchen sink. This way I can give more one on one attention and still watch the other two in the living room. The only thing is they can not splash too much. Today, I attempted to bathe all three in the bath tub at once and it kicked my butt. No ergonomics to say the least. They all had a blast but I ended up with naked babies running around the house. Emilia enjoyed the bath the most and was still excited afterwards. I need to plan out bathtime better and have everything within reach.

Pilates

So needless to say, a year after having triplets...I have quite a muffin top and weigh just a tad more than I want....lol. I have a 24, 23 and 19 pounder that I have to keep up with all day, so I need to get back in shape. I weighed the pros and cons of joining a gym or just getting something for the house. I decided on this pilates thing from QVC. (Don't laugh mom or I will tell your mom to haunt you this week - my other QVC soul mate) I think it will be easy to sneak to my room than out to a gym during the week. We shall see....

Seth's new dance moves

Seth recently started this head banging body shakin soul movin dance move. We think he may have a little Elvis in him.
