We caught them all for a quick pic before church,
since we were already 30 minutes late.

2 out of 3 girls being happy is pretty good.
They LOVE their new dresses and shoes!

Presents.

Abby loves her baby with a magnetic binki and a bottle.

Carrie hasn't figured out, the binki is for the baby.

Sara loves her new Elmo toy from Grandpa and Grandma.
She misses them the most and cries for Grandpa often.

Abby likes her cake.

So, we got ready to sing and have cake after the presents and realized
The cake mix was still sitting on the counter.
Yes, I forgot to bake their bday cake.
Bad mom moment. Dad quickly covered for me and
served ice cream cake w/ candles!

Sam and Carrie

Sam was so excited for the girls to get his gift, cups with cool straws!

Jacob loves to read.

Jacob is such a great reader and he loves to read.
He has been reading all of our Christmas books.

What's in your mouth?

Sara, What's in your mouth?
Spit it out so you can smile for the camera!

She bit all these butterflies off her tutu, without mom even noticing
and she had them all in her mouth.

Do we have cute trick or treaters or what?

Happy Halloween!
Grandma and Grandpa sent Tinkerbell & Pirate costumes for the girls.
They also sent cash for the boys to pick out their own costumes. It was so fun to take them shopping and see what they picked out.

Carrie, Abigail, Sara chillin' with their candy.

Isaiah the alien.

Jacob the pirate captain.

Sam (Captain Hook) and the little pirate girls ready for a Halloween party at church.

Sara and Sam.

TX State Fair '08

Daddy sat with the girls and spoiled them by combing their hair.

They are big fans of cotton candy!

The boys had a blast at the TX state fair.

The boys each chose which rides they wanted to go on.
Sam bought a webkinz instead of going on a ride.

Jacob Loved the giant slide!

Isaiah chose the fastest ride that he was tall enough to go on.

They all wanted to go on the log ride.

Romar and the boys had a great time camping in Arkansas.

This is life with 3 girls fighting for lap time.

The girls have these 3 matching chairs. They spend more time fighting over who gets which one than actually sitting in the chairs. Notice how one of them is always moving and blurry, or has no pants on, or is crying. So hard to capture cute triplet pictures.

Abby loves to take off her clothes. Sara and Carrie try to copy her and get stuck with their shirts like this. Then they cry until I fix it.

Wow, we have a ton of kids! Look at all of them gathered around Romar to pet the bunny. Sometimes I forget how big our family is, until I see a picture like this.

TAG!

TAG!

I've been tagged, so here it goes.

3 Joys
1. Watching my kids play and laugh.
2. Time, anywhere outside, with my husband.

3 Fears

3. Living off food storage and trying to eat those things.

3 Obsession/Collections
1. No time for this. Used to be scrapbooking.
2. I used to collect thimbles.
3. I love to collect my kids art.

3 Suprising Facts
1. I hate black licorice and the smell of ketchup.
2. I love to crochet. It's my closet hobby.
3. I hate to shop for anything. I would rather my mom do it all for me. Yes, seriously.

Isaiah got beat up

Isaiah had a lab draw and then passed out. He smacked his head so hard on the wall, he got all banged up. Dad felt so sorry for him that he took him fishing instead of to school.

Utah '08

3 Happy Girls

I know they're not happy,
but aren't they darling in their swim suits?

Dad and his girls

This is amazing. You can actually see all of the girls in one picture. They refuse to all hold still and all look cute at the same time for a picture.

Sam helps Mow

Sam loves to help Daddy. Today he helped mow the lawn.

jacob, superman.

Jacob and Sam decided to play Superman. They tied the blind cords around their necks and then jumped off the window ledge and tried to swing back. Not a great idea!

Hair?

These pictures are proof that I actually try to do the girls' hair. They don't like to hold still and they wont leave their hair alone. If they do decide to have cute hair, then the other two attack and pull it all out.

Carrie

Sara

Abby

Jacob and Sam

Love those Indian vests.

Isaiah Is so excited.

Isaiah got an award at school. Doesn't he look thrilled about it?

Sara is so tricky.

Sara loves shoes and hats. This is the perfect combo of both.

Carrie finds the playroom.

Carrie got into the boys playroom, made a mess and ate paper and markers.

Abby is told No!

Daddy wont let Abby climb into the fireplace. She is not very happy about that.
