My combination blog

Since I've been pretty busy lately I thought I'd make a post about our week minus when Ryan and I went out with our friends Ryan and Ali and Ryan and Emily since the girls wouldn't get into any pictures. Lame. Anyway we are starting with The girls eating Rice cereal for the first time. We have pictures of Joc and Delaney and for some reason none of Cali. I think Ryan got annoyed with all the screaming and thought picture time was over by the time we got to her. FYI They all hate it and even though we tried for several days, we eventually decided Ah screw it, we'll try at around 5 months. THEY HATE IT!!!Trust me, She screams just after this picture.

Her too!

Ryan's mom Sandie (AKA Grandma) came to visit this week spending half the time with us and half the time with Colin so she could be there for my nephew Justin's Birthday! Here is Sandie and Joc.

So Sandie brought each girl in the pool for there first swim. Once again no pictures of Cali. At least not on our camera because the battery died but we got it on Sandie's camera, just none to show to you today. Surprisingly Cali was the only one who liked it. Or at least didn't mind I'll say. These days I'm beginning to think my girls don't LIKE anything since they're so finicky except for to be talked to. They love that. Oh and TV and a little ashamed to say. Here is Sandie and Delaney.

Sandie and Jocelyn.

My sister n law Brittney and the twin boys. We went to their house for our nephew and Ryan's little Buddy Justin's 2nd birthday party. These are some of my highlights. And there were lots.

Ryan sneaking Justin some Laffy Taffy.

Justin on his Trike that Sandie brought him in her suitcase.

Ryan and Justin playing who knows what and having a great time.

That's what we got Him for his birthday cause it's crazy hot right now.

The theme of the party was CARS (the movie) and he was pretty excited about all the CARS themed gifts such as the Car.

As you can see!!!

The Cake.

The frosting!

And last but not least. The best part of every party, cake on the face!!!

We're 4 months old!

Yesterday the girls turned 4 months old and today they had their shots and check up. They're doing great! Now that they are 4 they smile a lot (until the second they get tired and then they cry) They are becoming very social, trying to figure out their hands and tongues, talk to toys or light fixtures and even to me, and are definitely liking the roll over thing (Cali loves it and is now rolling back to her tummy. They are definitely starting to develop personalities and I am definitely starting to love those personalities.Jocelyn now weighs in at 11lb 12oz. That's 13%

Delaney weighs 10lb 1oz. 3%

Cali is 9lb 11oz. 0.61% She's slowly but surely gaining on the charts.

No more tummy time

My girls used to hate tummy time but as of this week they all started rolling over with the slightest of ease. Jocelyn's first time was this weekend and the other two are now doing it intentionally and not just out of frustration. They are so good at it that I couldn't even take a picture of all 3 in their tummy time position all at once which is what mom and I were trying to do today. Cali (who has hated tummy time the most) will be rolled over before you even remove your hands from her body. Now tummy time isn't a problem for them since they know they don't have to stay on there tummies.

Dare I say, the Angels are back!

So there fussy time or colic or whatever it was is pretty much gone! They say it goes away by 4 months and on the 20th that's what they'll be. This week has been like a dream. Thank you Jesus. For the last couple months we had 3 crying babies right before bed for 2 to 4 hours each and every night. Now they cry when they are tired or hungry like they should and we have solutions to those things.Jocelyn's helping her dad make bottles for the night.

No the picture's not upside down, Cali is. This is her and Delaney's new favorite position. The fun is always behind them.

The home girls are hangin with dad again.

Entertainment

Yes, I'm an idiot!!! I do stupid things all day long that I never thought I'd do and hopefully no one will ever have to see. This little toy ensemble kept the girls happy for more than 45 min.Sometimes we let the girls entertain us.

A little mirror image trick

New clothes and New Bows, and 1 tattoo?

First of all, I want to thank Jewely for the Bows that she made for my girls while she was in town from Tennessee. They make my girls about 10 times cuter and I don't have to wait until their heads are big enough for store bought bows. Second, My Aunt Teri went to Kohl's and bought the girls 3 matching outfits because she could hardly stand it, and what's funny is I thought they were so cute I sent my mom to exchange them for the same outfits but this age instead of future because I could hardly stand it and my mom in doing so had to buy 2 more outfits for the 3 girls because she could hardly stand it. We got triple whammied by the triplets. And now third, as far as the tattoo is concerned, I can't leave Ryan alone with these girls for too long can I?

Skinny Dipping!

The water in our pool wouldn't take the chemicals anymore because it has been more than 5 years since it was last filled so Ryan had to drain the pool and clean the surface which is a lot of hard work but hours of fun for Buster. Since we were busy with the girls until bed time , She had to wait till dark. Which she LOVED!!! Those who know Buster will know that this may have been the best night of her life!
