Mommy is sick!

So far I have managed to keep the boys and myself healthy. We've the the occasional ear infection but NOTHING else.

Well, now mommy has a HORRIBLE cold, sinus infection...heck I don't know but I feel like CRAP! Luckily Sean has been great and I've spent most of the day in bed. He knows I NEVER (never say never) get sick.

I can actually hear him in the front room right now. He's changing a poopy diaper...you ask how I know?? I first heard him open the wipes then say...golly kid that stinks! Oh my gosh that is horrible. LOL He's being a trooper!

Thanks honey!

GO COOPER GO!

Over the last week or so Cooper has made remarkable progress! Yesterday, he had PT and Renee (PT) couldn't believe how well he was doing. He can now get in and out of sitting, he can get his knees under him in a crawling position.....AND he even took a couple of strides crawling, ALL BY HIMSELF! Of course I cried! GOOOOOO COOPER GOOOOOOO!

It has been hard for me to watch him as he looks so sad/frustrated that his brothers are up and moving around. About a week ago he was crying and I peaked around the corner and Cale took him a toy and dropped it off right in front of him. (he's a little enabler)

They are 9 months old! Well Baby Check

The boys had their 9 month well baby check last week. Boy, are they growing fast.

Colter: 21lbs
Cooper: 19lbs
Cale: 18lbs

They were all on the growth curve for non-adjusted weight and height...whooo hooo. Their weight gain is slowing down a bit. The doc said that was normal when they start to move around because they are burning so many calories.

They are all doing great. They learn something new everyday.

I'm so proud to be their mommy!

How to keep your sanity as a parent of TRIPLETS!

This was emailed to me by a couple of different people in my office. I guess they all thought I needed a good laugh.


15 Ways To Keep A Healthy Level Of Insanity (While raising Triplets)

1. At Lunch Time, Sit In Your Parked Car With Sunglasses on and point a Hair Dryer At Passing Cars. See If They Slow Down.

2. Page Yourself Over The Intercom. Don't Disguise Your Voice.

3. Every Time Someone Asks You To Do Something, ask If They Want Fries with that.

4. Put Decaf In The Coffee Maker For 3 Weeks . Once Everyone has Gotten Over Their Caffeine Addictions, Switch to Espresso.

5. In the Memo Field Of All Your Checks, Write "For Marijuana".

6. Finish All Your sentences with "In Accordance With The Prophecy".

7. Skip down the hall Rather Than Walk and see how many looks you get.

8. Order a Diet Water whenever you go out to eat, with a serious face.

9. Specify That Your Drive-through Order Is "To Go".

10. Sing Along At The Opera.

11. Put Mosquito Netting Around Your Work Area and Play tropical Sounds All Day.

12 . Five Days In Advance, Tell Your Friends You Can't Attend Their Party Because You have a headache.

13. When The Money Comes Out The ATM, Scream "I Won! I Won!"

14. When Leaving the Zoo, Start Running towards the Parking lot, Yelling "Run For Your Lives! They're Loose!"

15. Tell Your Children Over Dinner, "Due To The Economy, We Are Going To Have To Let One Of You Go."

Feel free to share with others.

A Bubble Bath, Book and a Back Massage

Every evening I feed the boys, put them to bed and then clean the house. I love waking up to a somewhat clean house. This evening I got the boys into bed and started cleaning up. My husband came in and told me to go take a bubble bath and read my book. He would take care of the house. WOW. Then he even gave me a back massage. I'm not sure if he did something wrong or he was just tired of my leg hair flapping in the wind TMI. :) Either way...I really enjoyed my little break. Thank you, Sean!
