i'm weak

Well the kids wore me down. So basically i felt guilty staring into their eyes longing for fresh air and sunshine. But not my backyard, oh no-to the park. The neighborhood park uses mulch all around there play area. Alas no mud! Needless to say, they loved it as always. However, this time they didn't just swing and crawl around. The triplets have discovered the steps, tunnel, and super cool fort structure.

you will give into our demands

I really enjoyed my girls vacation, and i actually really missed my little stinkers. Definitely want to plan more girl trips away. It really helped to recenter my psyche and appreciate my children more. Unfortunately since i came back from San Antonio, the weather has been cold and rainy. I don't really mind except the triplets love playing in the backyard. Its hard to keep them entertained when you are under house arrest.

Mom, do we have to take a picture? Yes- i haven't taken a group shot in awhile!

Alright Adalynn, can you take your fingers out of your mouth?

Oh just one finger is okay i guess. Smile Marek!

Marek is a little under the weather. Been running a fever for two days. Poor sweet boy.

Adalynn is in love with her fingers. If they are not in her mouth then they are in her nose. oh yea

Don't let Landon's sweet face fool you. He has been getting into everything lately. And he has decided climbing is his new passion. He is especially fond of climbing a storage cube onto the living room chair; across the side table, and then onto the couch! grrr!

But mom its sunny and beautiful outside, why can't we go? It's rained for two days, and now it's super muddy...so do i want to clean mud off my kids after i just put them into their day clothes...hummmm

You are the meanest mom in the world! i want to go outside!

You never let us do anything fun mom!

We can wait you out! or shout you out! You will give in to our demands! We out number you!

Christmas recap

Since I never get off on holidays-you out there who work at a hospital know- i was working this past Christmas weekend. It really wasn't too bad. Since i have worked the last two Christmas holidays, i hope next year i wont have to. By that time, the triplets should be old enough to understand the concept of opening gifts from Santa, etc. As it turns out, I am also working this weekend for the New Years holiday-imagine that! ha ha
Aaron packed up the kiddos and heading to my parents for a fun-filled week of hunting, eating, playing cards, and all around merriment with my parents and a large group of our friends. Oh no don't feel sorry for me, I am kid and husband-free for the week! I am finally getting a vacation with one of my girlfriends! We are headed down to San Antonio for a few relaxing and pampering days. As you can imagine i have been looking forward to this FOREVER!!!

Picture with Santa


Getting our photo with Santa this year was an ordeal to say the least. We made plans on four separate occasions to take them, but had to cancel due to bad weather twice, all the kiddos getting strep once, and then the fourth time due to there being a 2 & 1/2 hour wait. Hello I can't entertain my babies that long in a stroller. Last year my husband surprised me by taking them all to Bass Pro Shop to get their pics with Santa. They turned out great and Santa was the best- with the BEST smile!

We really wanted this Santa again. Like seriously, it was all my husband talked about. Well when it came down to the wire, I said forget it. I'm not driving the 30 miles to Bass Pro and fighting the road construction in Grapevine to wait for this Santa. So I toted the kiddos to North East Mall on Wednesday and waited 10-15 minutes for this:
So Landon is falling off Santa. Ha Ha. But my only other option was selecting a photo with Adalynn picking her nose. She was apparently doing this in 4 of the 6 photos that they took and looking away on one too. I didn't want to be in the photo so i just tossed Marek behind Santa. He He. Oh and yes I'm too lazy to run the photo through the scanner. Taking a photo with your cell is much easier; and yes I stress bite my nails! You can imagine how stressful my life gets. Merry Christmas!

boys first haircut

The day before the boys turned 19 months, Aaron and I took them for their first haircut. I am very happy with the results since of course i think their haircut was long overdue. Their father was sad to see the mullets go. lol Landon was so well behaved, while Marek was more fussy. We had to distract him with a Mickey Mouse game on Aaron's phone.
