Current Life

Before I share the fact that we have a blog, it may be nice to give an overview of where we are in this crazy wonderful life with three little girls.

Rebekah is currently 2 1/2. If you ask her how old she is she will say "I'm two, but at my next birthday, I will be 3!" She is so looking forward to having a birthday party, I keep explaining that August is still a few months away. She just loves celebrating birthdays and anything else she can get treats for. She is also very sweet on babies. She is so in love with her two little cousins, Rowan and Will.

Lydia and Eve are 16 months old. To be honest, the last year or so has been a little bit of a blur. But we are sleeping mostly through the night (or at least I get to, Randy hears the girls first and will get up if they need binkies put back in or if Rebekah needs to be re-tucked in..he is wonderful about letting me sleep!) The girls are at such a fun age. They are super mobile and can be found giving lots of open mouth kisses and hugs. They repeat almost anything you want them too. Eve is loving Elmo and calls him "Melmo" just like Rebekah used to. You can see from the picture below, that Eve can eat some cake! She has a huge sweet tooth, I am sure she gets it from me! She is a sweet little thing herself! I have already been impressed with her ball kicking skills--she may be our little athlete, but who knows.

Lydia has picked up on the word "No" and drops her milk cup on the floor and then adds in the "no" before we can even say it. She is such a little ham--as annoying as throwing the milk on the floor is, she just makes you smile. One of our favorite Lydia tricks is her blinking ability, although we have about a 50% success rate when we ask her to do it on command for an audience.

A typical Lydia picture: hat on head, silly expression, and climbing on something.

Another great Lydia photo--here she knew she was being funny...turning her bib around and stuffing her bagel in her mouth.

It is amazing how much you can love three little blessings--even when your day is filled with cleaning, feeding, changing, and refereeing 3 little monkeys!
