Our first artwork

Aiden, Seth and Mia all went to church with grandma and grandpop. During their stay at pre-sunday school, Mia made her very first piece of artwork. I was told to let her practice so that she learns to not eat the crayons. So here it is....


I couldn't be prouder.

Dodger Dogs






We got to sneak away for a day to see a little baseball. We went to go see the Dodgers and Phillies have at it. Everytime we go see the PHillies and Dodgers play the Dodgers always win. I am beginning to think I am bad luck for my team. We took all the kiddos except Seth. He stayed with grandma for the day. I felt bad about leaving him, but knew he would be much happier at grandmas than a loud stadium.

Just going through the motions....


I was in operation diaper change and PJ's on mode. I was, however, not paying attention to who I had at the time. I guess I shouldn't try to discuss plans with hubby while doing this simple task. Aiden didn't mind and neither did I. Dad did. Aiden was later changed by dad.

Outside fun = better sleep

Last night we went outside for some after dinner fun. They were splashing away. Even I got soaked to the core. Seth has a ton of birthmarks. He has a speckled reddish one on his shoulder, a slightly raised brown and almost an exact replica of the one I had on my butt. He still shows his Mongolian spots too. I didn't know what these were when they were born. All three have them. Aiden has the least amount. They should disappear by around five.

Aiden is a supreme splasher.



Mia has very, very long legs. She will use them to her advantage.

Six years of Wedded Bliss



Mother's Day was also my six year wedding anniversary. I love my husband and look forward for the years to come. I am so lucky and blessed to spend my life with him. It has been hard raising three teenagers and then the addition of the triplets turned us into a zoo. It seems that with each year we grow stronger and stronger. I love that man of mine.

Three wonderful Moms


I am biased in saying I have the world's greatest mom. I truly believe this! She is my best friend. I can't go a day without calling her 2-3 times. We know each others secrets, joys, and pains. She got to spend her mother's day with my grandma and family back east. I am glad she got this time to relax. I just wish I could have been there with her on the boardwalk and walking around Cape May.

Grandma Sally


Grandma Lynn
I also have been blessed with two amazing mother-in-laws. I do not know what I would do without them. Having three babies at once has forced me to learn to depend on family and friends more. This was a bit hard because I have always prided myself in being very self sufficient. I think God had a plan in giving me triplets. It is hard as heck, but it has change my life in such a positive way. I learned there is more than work, and that family is what matters most. I have learned patience and to enjoy the little things a whole lot more. They have also made my marriage stronger, although, there are days I wonder if we will survive it. Now that I have kids, it has made me realize even more how amazing all my moms are. They have been through so much in life, but remain the perfect examples of how I will get through mine.

Addicted to vinyl wall decorating


Here is what I did in the kiddos room this weekend. Aiden loves trucks, so this was mainly for him. When Mia gets her own room someday, then I will let her pick a more girly theme. She is outnumbered now, so the room is mainly boy themed.

Jake's Junior Prom



Jake's junior prom was this past Saturday. He looked so handsome. It just seems like yesterday we were sending Jacque off to her prom. I don't even want to think about sending three to the prom at once! It is getting time to start thinking what path Jake wants to take for college. I can't believe we will have two in college and three using sippy cups. I hope we can slow down Skyler's high school years. Luckily, she still has one more year in middle school before we even get there.

18 month check and shots

All three babies were really good during this check up. They only had two shots. The final Hep B and DPT. Aiden and Seth had ear infections, however. Aiden is already on antibiotics cause of his chest congestion, but Seth got a new antibiotic to take. I can't believe these guys are that much closer to being two.

Seth was 32 1/4in. and weighed 26lbs.


Mia was 33 1/2in. and weighed 22lbs.


Aiden was 32 3/4in. and weighed 24lbs.
