Life has been full of adventure. We are doing a lot more these days. Playing in the back yard is our favorite thing these days. Swimming, swinging and twirling. We recently took the kids to the Childrens Museum. Blaine went crazy we couldn't keep up. Gracie just took it all in and Collin pretty much clung to Daddy. It is so much fun listening to them TRY to talk, and learn so many new things. We also went to the Wild animal experience just last weekend. Gracie enjoyed it most. And everything was a Cat to her. Don't have much time for a long update, But things are great and Exciting. here are picture of the past few months.<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/Sjpcvgc5GRI/AAAAAAAAAPE/LQ1sU7RJDpg/s1600-h/DSCN0565.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/Sjpcvgc5GRI/AAAAAAAAAPE/LQ1sU7RJDpg/s400/DSCN0565.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348689478690609426" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SjpcvTf8jfI/AAAAAAAAAO8/jTJrRp5011U/s1600-h/DSCN0590.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SjpcvTf8jfI/AAAAAAAAAO8/jTJrRp5011U/s400/DSCN0590.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348689475213757938" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SjpcvAVvWkI/AAAAAAAAAO0/PZu2y4nh_r0/s1600-h/DSCN0585.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SjpcvAVvWkI/AAAAAAAAAO0/PZu2y4nh_r0/s400/DSCN0585.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348689470070676034" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/Sjpcuq41fCI/AAAAAAAAAOs/KbSDcmxNZcc/s1600-h/DSCN0581.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/Sjpcuq41fCI/AAAAAAAAAOs/KbSDcmxNZcc/s400/DSCN0581.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348689464312298530" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/Sjpen5NAT7I/AAAAAAAAAPk/TnPFhzUf4lc/s1600-h/DSC_0299.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 268px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/Sjpen5NAT7I/AAAAAAAAAPk/TnPFhzUf4lc/s400/DSC_0299.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348691546919161778" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SjpenZS4z4I/AAAAAAAAAPc/v6a-I5Jl0Us/s1600-h/DSC_0290.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 268px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SjpenZS4z4I/AAAAAAAAAPc/v6a-I5Jl0Us/s400/DSC_0290.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348691538353901442" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SjpenKCzl8I/AAAAAAAAAPU/pm5u-m5LvCc/s1600-h/DSC_0287.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 268px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SjpenKCzl8I/AAAAAAAAAPU/pm5u-m5LvCc/s400/DSC_0287.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348691534259918786" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/Sjpem0nCPtI/AAAAAAAAAPM/tZqvh_n4f9I/s1600-h/DSC_0282.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 268px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/Sjpem0nCPtI/AAAAAAAAAPM/tZqvh_n4f9I/s400/DSC_0282.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348691528506293970" /></a>LeAnnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06147877074862214396noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1148286294901007937.post-26290590099099294672009-05-30T07:29:00.001-07:002009-05-30T07:31:01.942-07:00Pay it forward challengeA friend of mine Is doing this challenge on her blog.

You think your one step ahead of them. HA!!!<br />I feel like we have done everything to keep them safe, but yesterday I took my sweet little Collin shopping with me and the other 2 stayed home with daddy. I called him to ask him a few questions about a computer I was going to purchase for him. He all of the sudden says "I gotta Go" and hangs up on me. I can hear the kids screaming in the background. Come to find out about 5 minutes later. Gracie and Blaine had move the T.V. (The t.v Is on wheels and is a 64 inch TV so it is huge) They pushed it so far that the cable box on top came crashing down on there sweet little heads. This thing has to weigh at least 10 lbs. Gracie was gushing blood from her nose and Blaine got a good gash on the top of his little head. :( Poor little pees. So we watched them closely and were very worried to put them to bed. Afraid they may have had minor concussions from this. Thank goodness everyone is OK with the acception of bumps and bruises..I hate when they get hurt..<br /><br /><br />I also am going to endorse my new favorite thing. SPACE SAVER BAGS... LOVE THEM..<br />Our upstairs closet is a disaster of sheets and blankets. So yesterday I decided to buy these bags and try them out. You wouldn't believe the stuff i fit in one bag..<br />I can actually See the closet floor. So nice..SO if your looking to organize these are much smaller then totes..<br /><br /><br />This summer is going to be so much fun. Time to get the backyard safe for the kids. Outdoors here we come.. We also planned our first family Vacation. We are going to Lake Mcconaughy in Nebraska in July. Grandma and Grandpa are going with us and we are renting a cabin for 5 days and 4 nights. I here they have great sandy beaches. I am so excited to see the kids play in the sand. I can't believe they are going to be 2 this year. Time is going by way to fast..<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SdohOsQVClI/AAAAAAAAANc/PGGjTxJFDB0/s1600-h/l_bb3be0f8a87e45ce9cc775309d2720e5.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SdohOsQVClI/AAAAAAAAANc/PGGjTxJFDB0/s400/l_bb3be0f8a87e45ce9cc775309d2720e5.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5321602445973195346" /></a>LeAnnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06147877074862214396noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1148286294901007937.post-6218780563111497712009-04-01T11:23:00.003-07:002009-04-01T11:25:52.362-07:00So I copied another blogI couldn't help my self this was to good not to pass on.. I read this on another Triplet Blog who also copied it from another triplet blog. So call me a copy cat but, this is so true. the things you take for granted..<br /><br /><br />I just wanted to share a perspective on the wonderful gift of motherhood.<br /><br />Back in 1988, the book Love You Forever, by Robert Munsch hit the bestseller list for the first time. That was the year my son was born and the year I bought my copy. Without exaggerating, I believe I must have read that book a thousand times since then. Already having had one child, I was beginning to see how quickly kids grow. That book holds a very special place in my heart.<br /><br />When I first read that to my older kids, it seemed a little creepy to me that the mom would drive across town and crawl into her grown son’s room so she could rock him while he slept. Now, it seems I’ve become that creepy mom. No, I won’t really stalk my adult-children, but I can fully relate to sentiment. If I could, and I thought I could get away with it, I’d get in my car and go rock each one of my children to sleep. Tonight, even.<br /><br />Time passes. We blink and our children are celebrating yet another birthday. Sometimes the most precious moments we get to experience as moms get shuffled in with the day-to-day obligations and are forgotten.<br /><br />I wrote this for my older children, who turned from babies into adults when I wasn’t looking:<br /><br />I remember the first time I cradled you in my arms, but I can’t remember the last. Guess I always figured there’d be a next. If I had known it would be the last time, I’d have taken time to breathe in the sweet smell of your skin and hair, feel the heavenly warm weight of your little body in my arms. I’d have tried to burn that feeling – that image – into my brain, my heart, my soul.<br /><br />When was the very last time I carried you to bed, tucked you in and kissed you goodnight? I wish I could remember. If only I could have known it would be the very last time, I’d have curled up next to you to on your bed, watched the rhythmic rise and fall of your chest, and let myself be lulled to sleep by the sweet sounds of your gentle slumber.<br /><br />I can never forget the very first time I rocked you in my arms and sang to you – Hush Little Baby. It was as though no song before had ever had meaning. I can’t remember the last song I sang to you. I guess I figured there’d always be one more song to share – one more time that your little smiling eyes would tell me that your mommy had the sweetest voice in all the world. If I had known it would be the very last time, I’d have squeezed you just a little tighter, rocked you just a little longer, and sang another song and another and another…<br /><br />When, my sweet child, was the very last time I swooped you up off of the floor to the heavenly sound of your squeals of delight and twirled you and dipped you and danced with you until I was out of breath but you were pleading, “Please, Mommy. One more time.” Always to some silly tune. I wish I would have known it would be the last. If only I had known…I’d have picked an endless song and we’d be dancing, still.<br /><br />Things you’ll miss (among the many), believe it or not:<br /><br /><br />Trimming fingernails and toenails – those tiny little girl and boy hands – perfect little hands.<br /><br /><br />Gently putting a Band-Aid on a boo-boo – even if the boo-boo is only in their head.<br /><br /><br />Your little ones’ fuzzy little legs. I love fuzzy little legs. When my kids sit on my lap, I am tickled to see the golden peach fuzz on their legs. I don’t know exactly what it is, but it screams innocence.<br /><br /><br />And toys. You’ll miss toys – even when they’re scattered all over the floor. Because when the toys go away, so does a lot of the magic of childhood.<br /><br /><br />You'll also miss pushing your kids on a swing: The day Angus learned to swing by himself was one of the sweetest, saddest days of my life. I can’t believe the way my emotions tugged at me in two totally different directions at the same time. I was thrilled that my boy had mastered one of the greatest joys in childhood. My little boy had grown wings. I still remember that feeling from my own childhood when I thought that I could touch the clouds with my feet if I only could only swing high enough. But even as I was thrilled for Angus, an equal part of me was sad. I knew it was the end of “Push me, Mommy.”<br /><br /><br />To be completely honest, the end of the “push me, Mommy” stage for my triplets held a different meaning. I’m sure I was quite a sight on the public playgrounds, running the gauntlet between three different swings – each swing with the potential to send me flying into a face-full of rubber mulch. I was a bit more relieved when they learned to swing on their own. But there is still a twinge of sadness there, too. Sadness because my babies don’t need me for that anymore.<br /><br /><br />You’ll also miss hearing “Mommy, look at me!” and “Mommy, do you know what?” and “Mommy, I want that!” Basically just the constant chitter-chatter of your little ones. This one’s a biggy for me. My kids are huge talkers. When my older kids were younger, I used to kid with them that God gave them each a certain amount of words and if they used them up, they’d never be able to speak again. But, even the sweetest, chattiest child turns into a teenager who will seem to have lost all ability to communicate, resorting to one-word sentences, body language, grunts and clicks. Trust me when I say, you’ll miss your chatter-box.<br /><br /><br />I guess what I’m getting at is that it all goes by so quickly. Don’t forget what a gift motherhood really is. The real gift of motherhood is in the tiny things – in the actual mothering.<br /><br />So, when your little one begs, “Pick me up, Mommy,” pick her up and whisper in her ear that she is the most precious little girl in the whole world. Make it your little secret. A confidence. Someday, when she’s grown, she’ll give you a call when she’s down and say, “Pick me up, Mom” and you’ll share a funny story to make her smile, and you’ll tell her that she is the most precious girl in the whole world.<br /><br />When she says, “Watch me, Mommy,” watch her. Someday, she’ll march down the aisle in her cap and gown and her eyes will search the crowd to find you. And when your baby’s eyes meet yours and she smiles, you’ll hear her heart say, “Watch me, Mommy.” And you’ll watch. And you’ll cry tears of joy for what she’s become and tears of sadness because your baby is not your baby anymore.<br /><br />So when you have those stressed-out days when you want to hang up your mommy-apron for the day, don't lose sight of how fleeting childhood is. It will help you remember what a wonderful gift motherhood really is."<br /><br /><br />"As long as I'm living, my baby you'll be." - Robert Munsch<br /><br />www.our3.blogspot.com<br /><br />Lesa Rhoton<br />http://www.angusandthetriplets.com/<br />2009LeAnnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06147877074862214396noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1148286294901007937.post-57116621981594093782009-03-18T06:14:00.004-07:002009-03-18T06:25:56.659-07:00Oh how the Wiggles make us sooo happy.Here is just the cutest video of my son Collin Really Dancing.

I am reaching out to all my blog readers and fellow triplet familys to please help me reach my goal. Even if it is just 1.00 it would be sooo sooo helpful..March of dimes is such a great cause. It helps babies like mine that were born prematurely have a fighting chance. So again please donate to help me reach my goal...<br /><br /><strong>Thanks to all the people that have already donated. I truely do appreciate it.<br /><br />If you would like to donate click the banner on my page..</strong>LeAnnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06147877074862214396noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1148286294901007937.post-14930698242584744362009-02-12T07:44:00.002-07:002009-02-12T08:27:37.037-07:00IMO OctomomAlright.with all the controversy surrounding the Octuplet mom, I have decided to blog my opinion. Everyone seems to ask me about her or compare me to her. First of all I have Triplets NOT octuplets!!! <br />I think that this women is a NUT job!! She obviously needs some sort of mental help.<br />I think that the Doctor put her and these babies in a extreme amount of Danger, by placing all these embryos back. I went through IVF and personally think that Doctors should educate the parents more about the risks of a multiple birth. I am not saying that some don't at all, but from my personal experience I was told it is high risk and that's it. I knew nothing about TTTS, Pre-E and all the other things that could happen during a high risk pregnancy. This Doctor obviously is money greedy and didn't care about her and these babies..<br />From the very little I have seen, She loves her kids, but is in absolute LA LA Land. You cannot support your kids by giving them love. They need more! She said she will be able to support these children after she finishes school.. How in the F@#K is she going to finish school with 14 kids. I can barely Pee with 3 kids..<br />I do feel sorry for all the residents in California that will have to pay for these babies. But if they don't, Who will? These babies are hear and deserve to be provided for.<br />I had a friend call me last night, She started going off about this and then proceeded to tell me that these babies are not blessings from God that they were blessings of a Doctor. I was blown away. I then asked her if that meant that my children were not blessings from god. She tried to back track, and at that point she already had me boiling..<br />I do not agree that these 8 babies were brought into the world, But I also don't agree that they are any less blessing from god because they were conceived through IVF. I think that it is an absolute Miracle they are all healthy and doing great.<br /><br />So to conclude my thoughts. I believe this is so controversial because people are just concerned about the lively hood of these babies. So ask yourself this: If these babies were born to a wealthy husband and wife that had 4-6 previous children and were great parents, Would everyone still be in such and uproar?<br /><br />I could go on and on, but I won,t. If you would like to leave your oppinion please leave a comment and do so..LeAnnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06147877074862214396noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1148286294901007937.post-17651021487515791842009-01-29T06:58:00.004-07:002009-01-29T08:41:33.032-07:00Running, Running and RunningThey all have runny noses, It feels like it is a loosing battle on cleaning snot from little faces. I feel so bad for them. They can't drink there milk without having a hard time breathing. We have humidifiers going and rubbing lots of Vick's each night. I guess I will have to come to terms with, When one gets it they all get it. So between snotty noses and all three cutting molars, It has been a blast in our house! Poor little Collin has taken a beating lately. Two nights ago I smashed his little finger in the pantry door. I had no idea he was behind my with his fingers in the crack. Once I realized what i did, It was immediate tears for both of us. I felt so horrible. It swelled up and turn almost purple, I really thought I broke his little finger. In the end he was OK. Then the very next morning he fell and hit his cute little face on a plastic tote. Blood starting coming from the mouth and the nose. I just felt so horrible. Poor little guy, Lets hope that the only thing that happens today is me wiping his nose. Lately I have noticed that when one gets hurt the other two are very concerned. Gracie was rubbing Collins leg and then kissed him on the nose after Mommy hurt his finger. It was the cutest moment EVER! Gracie and Blaine are also into giving each other hugs and kisses. It melts me every time. Collin is the only one that doesn't show much affection towards his brother and sister. I can hardly believe they are pushing 17 months old. They are really starting to learn right from wrong. Even though they no it is wrong to dig all the trash out of the trash can. They still do it, and when they get caught there faces get the look of guilt. Every stage of there little life so far has so many different challenges. Here is an adorable picture I took just the other day in one of there cute moments <A href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SYG882_XYCI/AAAAAAAAANU/4caQO3v5yAg/s1600-h/IMG_0023.JPG"><IMG id=BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5296722390503874594 style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 295px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SYG882_XYCI/AAAAAAAAANU/4caQO3v5yAg/s320/IMG_0023.JPG" border=0></A> <br />I also took a cute video of all of them dancing.

And If you don't know there story here is there link http://littlemanmorrison.blogspot.com".<br /><br />Anyways I am sitting here crying my eyes out. I can't seem to compose myself. I have never met them but can't help to think how amazing this family is. Anyone who ever has to suffer such a tragic loss and some how seem to survive each day, are the strongest and most amazing people ever. <br /> Reading and hearing about stories like this just makes me want to fly across the country and hug these families. I can't even imagine what it would be like to loose a child..<br /><br /> So now I sit here and think about how TRUELY blessed we are. As much as I find myself getting frustrated and tired from all that it takes to raise 3 little ones. I have made a promise to myself never to take for granted. I have been given the greatest gift and that I am Thankful <br /><br />SO to all those families that have gone through such a loss. Just know that I pray everynight for you.LeAnnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06147877074862214396noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1148286294901007937.post-32771080972167263442009-01-03T06:02:00.006-07:002009-01-03T06:26:49.790-07:00The HolidaysI know that we have many more years of fun during the Holidays. But I had absolutely the best Christmas and New Years so far.. It is been 8 years since I have lived in the same town as my Mom. So no short little visits over the Holidays.<br />We got to bake, which is something we have done since I was little. They also kept the babies over night a few times so that we could come over and hang long after they went to bed. My Mom has a Wii and that thing is soooooo much fun. My sister and nephew came in to town a day after Christmas and spent a week. It has been great..<br />The babies loved all there new toys and even gave it a shot at opening a few. Grandma and Grandpa Cooper sent a great package of games so our family can build great memories together, It was a great gift. There were even 5 team Little Shirts in there..<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SV9ldRl9eXI/AAAAAAAAAMM/F3iORLIQhw8/s1600-h/DSCN0123.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SV9ldRl9eXI/AAAAAAAAAMM/F3iORLIQhw8/s320/DSCN0123.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5287056041169484146" /></a><br /><strong>Gracie was so Excited when they got there Elmo Live.

Although I think we caught Gracie and Blaines on time, before it got really bad. So now we just have to hope Aaron and I do not catch it. Aaron has stayed home from work today so that he can help me. <br />Gracie and Blaine woke up with High Temps but after a dose of Motrin and Antibiotics they seem to be doing a hole lot better.<br />So I am going to take advantage of him being home and finish our Christmas shopping today. <br />We also are in the middle of signing papers for a house to be built and trying to get all the details worked out for that.

Last week I had to take Collin in do to a 102.5 Temp. They did a strep test and it came back positive. So we tried our best to keep everything clean and separated from the other 2. We figured it would be miracle if the other 2 came out of this without getting sick. Well 6 days went by and we thought we were ok. Today Gracie and Blaine are both running fevers. So on the safe side we are headed to the doc.<br />This could possibly be just teething and lets hope so..Keep us in your good thoughts..LeAnnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06147877074862214396noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1148286294901007937.post-14219553992200227402008-12-05T14:28:00.001-07:002008-12-05T14:30:12.597-07:00Just some Holiday PicturesH<strong>ere are a few holiday pics.</strong><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STmdRV5UeNI/AAAAAAAAALk/unVCqF8SfG4/s1600-h/FlatIron_20081203_000275.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 266px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STmdRV5UeNI/AAAAAAAAALk/unVCqF8SfG4/s400/FlatIron_20081203_000275.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5276421359702145234" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STmdQ1fg3dI/AAAAAAAAALc/ej6GDhKWMaA/s1600-h/FlatIron_20081203_000274.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 266px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STmdQ1fg3dI/AAAAAAAAALc/ej6GDhKWMaA/s400/FlatIron_20081203_000274.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5276421351003971026" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STmdQZhP-PI/AAAAAAAAALU/Wv0EAeCcYeQ/s1600-h/ScannedImage.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 321px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STmdQZhP-PI/AAAAAAAAALU/Wv0EAeCcYeQ/s400/ScannedImage.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5276421343495059698" /></a>LeAnnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06147877074862214396noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1148286294901007937.post-37484140704418215302008-12-01T08:16:00.004-07:002008-12-01T08:36:21.109-07:00Thanks Giving & SnowWell its been a while. I have lots updates. Thanks giving was wonderful. Its been so long since I have spent thanksgiving with my Mom. She always goes all out and makes everything so great. I was also excited because the kids actually got to grub on all the great food for the first time. They loved it all and we even gave them a little slice of pumpkin pie. The boys loved it and Gracie was OK with it.<br />We just spent the day relaxing and while the kids took a nap we play the Wii. We just put the kids down for bed there and picked them up the next day. I can't understand why I can have an empty house, and I still can't sleep in. Aaron and I got up and went shopping. It was nice to get out of the house with him. We got a lot of the Christmas shopping done together. Here are a few pictures from thanks giving day.<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQBrI0mtwI/AAAAAAAAAKs/9iX0vvr9iYI/s1600-h/Thanksgiving+012.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 238px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQBrI0mtwI/AAAAAAAAAKs/9iX0vvr9iYI/s320/Thanksgiving+012.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274842904171820802" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQBqrscvII/AAAAAAAAAKk/wt2BCOhTSeU/s1600-h/Thanksgiving+011.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 238px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQBqrscvII/AAAAAAAAAKk/wt2BCOhTSeU/s320/Thanksgiving+011.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274842896352984194" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQBqJzFfhI/AAAAAAAAAKc/yZD4nroyAu4/s1600-h/Thanksgiving+010.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 238px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQBqJzFfhI/AAAAAAAAAKc/yZD4nroyAu4/s320/Thanksgiving+010.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274842887254015506" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQBpru_SXI/AAAAAAAAAKU/-j6sCOeHtzA/s1600-h/Thanksgiving+007.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 238px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQBpru_SXI/AAAAAAAAAKU/-j6sCOeHtzA/s320/Thanksgiving+007.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274842879183767922" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQBo06pIxI/AAAAAAAAAKM/dsFLRJ5foHI/s1600-h/Thanksgiving+002.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 238px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQBo06pIxI/AAAAAAAAAKM/dsFLRJ5foHI/s320/Thanksgiving+002.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274842864468697874" /></a><br /><br />We also go a good snow here and bundled the kids up and took them out in it for the first time. Collin absolutely loved it. Gracie and Blaine were not sure what to think of it they just sat there looking around while Colling was playing. <br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQCgjXk9hI/AAAAAAAAALM/LZj7E2_LG8c/s1600-h/IMG_2199.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQCgjXk9hI/AAAAAAAAALM/LZj7E2_LG8c/s320/IMG_2199.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274843821830895122" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQCf5iKwoI/AAAAAAAAALE/ox7_CUa7Q8k/s1600-h/IMG_2181.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQCf5iKwoI/AAAAAAAAALE/ox7_CUa7Q8k/s320/IMG_2181.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274843810601026178" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQCfCSW56I/AAAAAAAAAK8/_neusDP8df4/s1600-h/IMG_2186.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQCfCSW56I/AAAAAAAAAK8/_neusDP8df4/s320/IMG_2186.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274843795770763170" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQCdjOiPOI/AAAAAAAAAK0/112BELpq8tw/s1600-h/IMG_2194.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/STQCdjOiPOI/AAAAAAAAAK0/112BELpq8tw/s320/IMG_2194.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274843770253360354" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />Teething is getting worse. They are so grumpy lately. I was actually scared for myself after Aaron went back to work. They are running fevers and just plain grumpy. I find it so sad they have to go through this. I can only imagine what it feels like.<br />I can't wait until teething is over.LeAnnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06147877074862214396noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1148286294901007937.post-26953659111272479272008-11-18T13:08:00.003-07:002008-11-18T13:19:22.074-07:00Oh the wonderful world of teething..Why can't they just get them all at once? That is a question i ask myself daily. They all did great getting there front teeth, but now we have moved on to the molars. "Yikes" I just have to say this sucks. I know we well get through this but teething is messing there whole systems up. All 3 had horrible but rash last week and I swear I changed 7-10 poopie diapers per baby per day. I am sooooooo sick of poop. <br /> Gracie finally has caught up with her brothers and has her 8 front teeth. Collin is the first to have a molar and so far Blaine hasn't showed any new teeth but you never know what tomorrow will bring.<br /><br />I am looking forward to the Holidays. It has been a few years since I have been able to bake and shop with my mom. Plus the kids actually get turkey and all that goes with it.<br /><br />Christmas is my favorite. I just wish my husband would be more into it. Its also going to be hard to decorate a lot. The kids have managed to get into everything they are not supposed to so I can only imagine what they would do with some garlin.<br /><br />I am thinking about getting the kids the Thomas the Train ride on. It has tracks that is goes around. I would love to see if anyone else has gotten one of these and what they thought of it.<br /><br />Well short and sweet here are a few new pics<br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SSMi4aMnVKI/AAAAAAAAAKE/NEzMiekBMfo/s1600-h/IMG_2141.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SSMi4aMnVKI/AAAAAAAAAKE/NEzMiekBMfo/s320/IMG_2141.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5270094341453862050" /></a><br />This one of Collin is soo sad this is what teething is doing to him.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SSMi4CgBwdI/AAAAAAAAAJ8/z6-JMZt38cg/s1600-h/IMG_2171.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SSMi4CgBwdI/AAAAAAAAAJ8/z6-JMZt38cg/s320/IMG_2171.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5270094335092834770" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SSMi3-1d7NI/AAAAAAAAAJ0/Kgaqi7ZJDTw/s1600-h/IMG_2173.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bnpta-nY9_0/SSMi3-1d7NI/AAAAAAAAAJ0/Kgaqi7ZJDTw/s320/IMG_2173.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5270094334109019346" /></a>LeAnnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06147877074862214396noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1148286294901007937.post-43070986196076401632008-11-12T11:19:00.002-07:002008-11-12T11:21:41.454-07:00Preemie Petitionhttp://www.marchofdimes.com/padpetition/index.aspx?a=1&z=1&c=1&l=en<br /><br />Please take a minute and sign this Petition.<br /><br />ThanksLeAnnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06147877074862214396noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1148286294901007937.post-79178981716392436872008-10-30T06:07:00.004-07:002008-10-30T09:47:10.515-07:00just some updatesOk So I haven't just wrote anything in a while. So here goes. The kids are definitely becoming more work. They are all walking and getting into every thing.<br />How is it that you can sweep, vacuum, clean clean and more clean and they still manage to find the one little thing on the ground pick it up and put it in there mouth. And now when I go to take it out they bite down. OWWWWWW! <br /><br />I am looking forward to taken the kids out for Halloween. We are taking them to an assisted living home in the morning and then to the mall in the evening. It should be lots of fun. They are all going to be little tigers. and as far as i am concerned they are the cutest tigers EVER.<br /><br />Gracie- She is such a little fire cracker. She talks all the time in her own little language and is very giving. She will go dig every toy out of the toy box and bring it to you. It used to be she would act like she was giving it to you and then pull it back and walk away. Her hair is growing out of control, but I am not cutting it until she is 5. She is such a doll.<br /><br />Blaine- He is my lover. He gives hugs every chance he get. He actually hugged Gracie for the first time yesterday. It made me cry it was the sweetest moment. He is the cutest to watch when it comes to him walking. He walks every where but still concentrates very hard at it. He always has the biggest smile.<br /><br />Collin- He has become our little handful. He is very demanding. If he doesn't get his way he lets you know. He is so loving when it comes to his dad and I but he does not like is brother and sister. If they even touch him he screams. He is still our giggler. His knew nickname is pig pin. He eats with his fist and not his fingers. SO he wears more then he eats and it smears all over his face.<br /><br />I fall in love with them more and more each day, if thats even possible. As much work as they are it is all worth every smile and giggle and hug.LeAnnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06147877074862214396noreply@blogger.com0
