Climbing Babies

All of the babies are getting very mobile & moving all around which means we have a lot less "free" time.

On Halloween

Ginger (in the back) had been playing in the basket by herself and was not very happy about having to share.

The babies are moving & climbing on anything possible - including us!

I was in the bedroom feeding Ginger & Brian was in the nursery lowering Edison's crib while Daisy & Edison were playing in the living room. Brian kept checking on the babies every 2 minutes. He found Daisy like this- sitting in the vibrating chair with a ball. She had managed to climb up in it while holding the ball, turn around & sit down. She was very proud of herself! Good job Daisy!!!

The girls were napping in the nursery one day when we heard some laughter. Brian snuck in & caught it on tape. They are so funny together. We just can't imagine having only one baby!

Fall Fun

We had a beautiful fall day & decided to play outside.

Some New Photos

Here are a few pictures since we haven't posted in a while.

Daisy sneaking behind the couch.

I busted Ginger taking all of the diapers out of the caddy.

She was having a lot of fun.

Edison was being grumpy so Brian put him in a time out in the toy basket. He got happy really fast.

At the park. Don't worry- we didn't let them ride in the car like this.

Edison

He is such a big boy now.

Some New "Firsts"

We took the kids on their very first vacation to Yellowstone. Daisy & Edison slept while we packed up the car, but Ginger was all dressed up and ready to go.

We spent one day on a 5 mile hike to Lonestar Geyser. Here is the stroller all loaded up. Notice the camp chairs hanging off the sides. It reminded us of a homeless person's shopping cart all loaded up with our gear.

We were rewarded with 3 spectacular eruptions at our destination. It was well worth the hike & I'd recommend it to anyone visiting Yellowstone.

We did baths in the sink at the cabin, but the babies are really getting too big for that.

Here are Edison & Daisy just waking up the morning. They are all always so happy first thing in the morning.

Here are some fun pictures of the first time they tried real food. We thought we would use their highchairs, but they are still just too little, so the Bumbos won.

The kids are all getting so strong. They can all roll over either way now. Edison is getting so good at sitting and should be doing in on his own any day now. The Occupational Therapist has cut him back to one visit every 2 weeks since he is doing so well. Daisy is our best walker and wants be on the move anytime she gets held. Ginger is the best at scooting and may start crawling soon. Brian has been encouraging this behavior, but I don't approve. I'm not ready for mobile babies yet, after all they are only suppose to be 5 months old!

We just received their evaluations from the state for the Infant/Toddler program. They all tested at or above their age for social and physical development. The good news is that they are all doing so well, the bad news is that they are doing too well to qualify for services.

Here are a few more random pictures.
