Evel Knievel

Anthony's greatest wish for Christmas this year was this toy he remembered having as a child. It was an Evel Knievel Stunt kit. Being the most awesome wife I am, I got it for him.

Well, I must say it is a very sorry toy. It is loud as heck and the motorcycle hardly even moves. They crank this shaft that is so loud it hurts your ears and then it builds all this anticipation and then....nothing. The bike hardly goes up the ramp. I don't really get it. Anthony loves it. Now, Aiden loves it. He has to play with it every day.

Our own princess

We have our own royalty in our home.

Happy Easter

This was a really good Easter! It is getting more and more fun as these guys get older. We had fun painting eggs, hunting eggs and eating lots of good food. Seth is getting better around crowds and Mia is coming out of her shyness shell. The big kids continue to make us proud, as well. April was a long month, but ended on a really good note! Thank you, Jesus, for all that you did for us and continue to bless us with!

My twinettes not wanting to share with Seth

This past week has been interesting. Aiden and Mia are more like twins than triplets. They are always together, playing and fighting. They are learning about life with the same understanding. Seth, however, has always been at a different pace. Although, I know they all are very aware of each other and connected, it isn't until now that I have seen them all interacting together. Seth is becoming more aware of his surroundings. He is becoming more confident. His responses may not be appropriate yet, but it is a beginning. So when I see Seth watching the ipad with his brother and sister, I can't help but smile. I also know this means a new challenge. It is a daily challenge getting Aiden and Mia to accept this new third person to share with. It is also fun trying to teach the right and wrong way to interact with them.

Mia and her daddy

Dad likes to relax on the couch in the evenings. Mia has a way of making her spot known.

Rainy Day Craziness

When it rains, it gets a little crazy inside. Today Mia wanted to be snowman superhero and Aiden was a dragon that lives in a cave with fire.

Playing and Eating

I could hear Aiden and Mia laughing in the kitchen one night and decided to video tape what they were doing. They can play so good at times, but can also fight just as good.

Seth and his jumpin' Machine

Seth loves jumping on his trampoline. It took him about three weeks before he would try it out and then another week before he got used to the texture. He would rub his feet on it and jump one or two times and get off. Now he loves it! He is quite the jumper.

First Zoo trip

We took Aiden and Mia to the zoo for the first time today. They loved it. Mia's favorite was the monkeys and Aiden's favorite was the tiger. Seth got to spend the morning at Spa de Pop Pops. We think Seth will like it there, but will have to plan shorter trips to get him used to it. Mia could tell I was not found of the snake house, and used that to tease me on the way home. She would put her stuffed snake at me and make it hiss. Mia was the braver of the two today. My favorite was the vulture. He had his wings opened up as if he was showing off. I know he was just getting warm in the sun, but it was as if he was saying, "Yeah, mine span is eight feet, baby." I also liked feeding the giraffe's. Aiden and Mia were too afraid of their long tongues. Anthony feed the Sting Rays but wasn't sure if he would do it again.

First day of Preschool

Aiden and Mia started their first day of preschool today. It is just for a half day three times a week but it is a good start. They were so excited and I was nervous. I wasn't sad just very worried about silly things. Things like, will they get help when they need it? Will the other kids be nice to them? Will they miss home?
They didn't even say goodbye, they just ran to the playground. It is nice being able to just focus on Seth during his ABA session at home. I hope Aiden and Mia really like this school.
