Go Look At These!!!

Want to see some precious pictures? Go HERE

By the way...

Happy Halloween. Did we dress up? Well, if you count...

...Harper staying in her pj's all day being almost completely covered in chocolate...

...Chris dressing like a crazy Georgia Tech fan (for the good reason that he went to the GT game)

...Me wearing my new apron & donning Persian Melon (like the 1940's house wife I am & in memory of my Mama Dot)

...And the boys acting like complete maniacs because it is a full moon & they are adjusting to new 4 hour schedule...

then yes we dressed up!!!! And ate pumpkin chocolate chip pakes (pancakes) for breakfast AND dinner

...it was quite the fun day... maybe next year we will even carve a pumpkin! I know... we're wild.

(And in other news... the boys slept through the night with out a peep from ANY of them last night. First time. It was delightful, but after my body tasted so much sleep... it only wanted more. Sheesh. Maybe I'll get some more tonight - hopefully!!! But won't gain an extra hour since babies don't turn back their clocks. Oh well. )

Meet Bekah


This is Bekah. Say hi.

Bekah helps me with life Monday - Thursday and a little on Friday and Sunday. She is amazing & quite talented... see...
This is her feeding 3 babies. She is really good at it, and it is nice to have a break from time to time! :-) She helps with all sorts of stuff around the house, taking care of the boys, and helping out with Harper. It is wonderful to have an extra set of hands around the house when Chris is at work.

She is newly married to Brandon (who might just be Harper's first crush), and they have become part of our family. So, now when you see her in pictures, you will know who she is :-)

6 Week PostPartum Check Up

Well this is running a little behind sched, but here is a pic with me & my nurse practitioner, Tracie.


Dr.K had to be in an emergency c-section so she couldn't be there... total bummer! We will go back and visit in the spring once the boys can get out more & this piggy flu is going around.

Speaking of... Harp's had a fever of 102 today. She has been acting fine, so I'm hoping it's just a fever thing. If you think of it, please pray that she doesn't have anything bad & that she gets well soon!

Thanks so much...

hugs & kisses

Sabbath

Today was lovely.

I woke up & had my morning prayer time with Jesus while drinking coffee.

Had eggs & 'pakes' with Harpie.

Fed the boys with sweet Arica (she comes every Sunday AM as her ministry to our family. She is one of the most precious people that I know. A true heart friend & sister in Christ)We had sweet worship time during this feeding. The boys were so happy & Harper was dancing all over.

Had Sunday School with Harps. (Arica prepares a little Sunday School lesson for Harper each Sunday. I want Harper to know that Sundays are different than other days, and because we can't go to church right now, I still want her to know Her Maker & Creator... and that we take Sundays to worship and rest in Him.) Harps made a 'burning bush' today with red coconut & glue. We studied Moses, except she wanted to talk about Noah. I guess her mind-processing is delayed a week...ha!

Took a nap (while Harper & Arica played and the boys slept)

Painted my nails red.

Drank Dr. Pepper.

Went to Trader Joes... alone. My cashier gave me a *free* bouquet of sunflowers because I am a mama to triplets. :-)

What a glorious day to enjoy my Jesus! I love him so much.

Home Alone

tonight I am alone.

by myself...

all
night
long.

and there are FOUR sleeping babies upstairs.

pray they stay that way!


yikes.


chris has gone to move the rest of our furniture out of our house because after almost 2 years of it being for sale... we have a contract on it!!!! Pray all will go through this Thursday.


Update:(I would have posted this sooner, but I didn't want the blog world to know i was home alone - never want to be too careful!!!)
All went GREAT! Babies slept until 5AM both nights he was gone! A little fussing but not too much! Harper did well, too. He got all of our furniture moved out of the house...

and is very sore from moving.

Git.R.Dun

while Harpie has been away making memories with aunt nancy...

I've been busy busy busy

-----> re-arranging rooms...Harps got a new bed (even though she will still be sleeping in her crib - can't risk her getting out quite yet), the boys are in separate cribs &
we added another rocking chair in the nursery * I heart rocking my babies*

-----> cleaning out & organizing our
shed - can't believe i did this! i now
want to go buy some pumpkins and mums to make our back patio look
beautiful! i love fall...

----> fixing stuff with a drill - it makes me feel like i am really accomplishing stuff when I break out the drill!

It was wonderful spending almost 5 hours outside today. It makes me want to live on a farm and work outside, milk cows & collect eggs... I think I could do it.
