The End of an Era...

Something I have learned is that, with the passage of time, comes change! So, when the triplets turned 3 we had to endure a major change in our lives! We had to say good-bye to a couple of our faithful, loving, and hardworking therapists! Ms. Candy and Ms. Nikole both work with the the birth to 3 program, and when children turn 3, they are graduated out of the program and into preschool! We celebrated our time with a pizza/ice cream party! It was sad to see them go, but I know that we will always remember them and cherish the time they spent with our children! I hope to keep in touch so they can both see how amazingly well their little students are doing! I will be forever grateful for the time and energy they devoted to my children! They are certainly smarter and more capable because of them!

What's a party without ice cream sundaes?


Loving on Ms. Nikole!
Hmmm, do I credit this goofy child to the therapists???
Goofin' around with Ms. Candy!



Thanks to both of these amazing therapists for their hard work and caring way with my kiddos! We will miss you :-)

Triplets Turn 3!!

Wow, it's hard to believe that three years have passed since these little people entered our lives! It's been a whirlwind of a ride, to say the least, but I have a feeling that the fun (and chaos) is just beginning! These amazing little ones have overcome so many obstacles, faced even more challenges, and have proven that nothing will get in their way! Literally!! They continue to amaze us with their determination, strong will, and heart-warming personalities! We are truly blessed!

February 2010

Well, this is going to be a totally obnoxious post, since I haven't shared anything for the month of February and I still can't get the Adobe program update to load so I can make slideshows with photobucket! I don't even know if anyone still reads our family blog, but if nothing else, this helps me chronical everything so someday, when I return to scrapbooking, I will at least have the pictures somewhat organized :-)
We ended January with Molly at Children's and started February with Hailey at Mary Bridge. After a total of 11 days of hospital stay between the 2, we finally found ourselves all back together in one place! What a relief! February was a fun month, with nicer than expected weather and we definitely took advantage it! Here is a glimpse of what we've been up to:
Hmmm???

As you can see, we are keeping busy and everyone is back to tip top shape! Megan is loving first grade and doing very well! She will be completing her first science fair project this month! The triplets are two weeks from turning three and will start preschool shortly after! Time flies, that's for sure, but I am truly thankful for how far these little ones have come! We are definitely anticipating big changes over the next year, with potty training, bed sleeping, and lots and lots of talking :-)
