May Update

May has been a crazy month.  Our house was hit HARD with sickness.  It started out on Mother's Day with Cruz and Curtis.  They both threw up several times.   Curtis was knocked out for a good 24 hours.  Then it spread to Kash, and last but not least Julie, Trey and me!  Ugh.  The worst.  It really affected me and Curtis the worst.  We were in bed for a full day.  The kids would throw up and just be a little extra fussy and cuddly.  Trey threw up in the middle of the night but never even cried for us to clean him up.  He just woke up covered in dry vomit.  Poor guy!  I'm SO glad that it's over.  

Curtis was out of town for a week last month.  I spent half the week in Clovis by myself, then headed to Hollister for the last half of the week with all the kiddos.  I got to be there when my cousin Arielle left on her mission to Florida.  She did AMAZING in her farewell talk!  Holy testimony!  She's going to be great.  At the end of the month Uncle Kenny came to visit for a couple days.  It was so nice having him here.  My kids adore him!

 Julie's hair is getting long.  I actually took her to get a haircut since it's so uneven in the back, but the lady told me not to cut it yet since she's still losing her baby hair or something.  I asked her for some tips and tricks to manage her hair but she said keep doing whatever I'm already doing.  She said her hair felt great and wasn't dry like some other kids she has seen.  I've been learning how to manage her hair form different moms of mixed kids on Instagram.  She still hates when I brush it, so some days it looks better than others.  :)  It's definitely WAY different than my hair, so I'm learning. 

 I sure love her curls! 

 I'm thinking they may need a bigger pool this year. 

 This kid LOVES his dog.

 Thank goodness Tyson is so amazing and lets Trey do whatever he wants. 

 Curtis wrote me a card from each kid this year.  It was so cute! 

Each of the trio came out of nursery holding a rose.  They were so excited to give it to me.  Precious!

 Mother's Day 2015

 Kash loves helping out - even if it only lasts 5 seconds.

 Practicing her kissy face.

 Lunch date with their bestie Tyler. 

 Pool trip.

I seriously LOVE this age!!

Woke up early from his nap, then decided to fall back a sleep for an hour.  I loved every minute of it.   

 My little ring finger suckers. 

 Holding his own bottle!  Huge milestone over here!  

 This is how we do breakfast in our house. 

 Trying to tire them out before nap time. 

 I have a slight obsession with white onesies.  My kids never go without - unless they're in swimsuits or Julie's in a dress (and then she has a diaper cover on).  I hate seeing diapers.  Like when a kid is just in shorts and a shirt and their shirt comes up and you see diaper.  Or a little girl is in a dress with no diaper cover.  Weird, I know.  I just hate it.  At least it prevents them from taking their diaper off and smearing poop everywhere or something.

Trey Ten Months Old

 ::TREY::

Clothes - 12-18 month and 18-24 month

Diapers - Size 4

Trey Man is such an amazing little guy.  He's so easy going and happy ALL the time.  I'm so thankful I got him as baby #4.  I would be in the looney bin if he wasn't such a good baby.  He has started to snort when he laughs hard which is hilarious.  He loves the swings at the park.  He squeals and kicks his legs when he sees them.  Trey still loves his blanket - especially when he's tired.  He stuffs a huge part of it in his mouth and sucks on it.  Trey crawls all over the place and has started to pull himself up on furniture a bit.  The triplets love to bring tanbark and tiny rocks in from outside.  Trey can crawl over in two seconds flat and puts them right in his mouth.  I've become a little paranoid about it because I think he's going to choke so I'm constantly scanning the floor for any tiny pieces.

Trey is finally good at eating baby food.  He used to gag on everything but now he seems to like it all.  He loves those puffs and yogurt bites too.  He now has 8 teeth!  I've never really notice any problems with teething or anything.  He really is so easy going though.  For instance - our whole family got sick a few weeks ago.  It was like a 24 hour bug that had us all throwing up and miserable.  Trey's the type of baby who will throw up in the middle of the night and never cry for you to clean him up.  I got him out of his crib in the morning and noticed he was covered in vomit.  Poor little guy.  Or he'll poop through in the middle of the night and never cry.  In the morning he's happy as ever covered in poop.  It's crazy.  I couldn't ask for a better baby.

Kash and Cruz have become a little protective of Trey (especially Kash).  We were at a friends house for dinner and her 18 month baby girl kept walking over to Trey and pinching his cheeks. Trey was getting a little frustrated and started crying.  Kash runs over to Trey and gives him this big hug and tried to protect him from the little girl - then points to the girl as says "no no!"  It was the absolute cutest thing I have ever seen.  My heart was about to explode.  I wish I had it on video.  We just live this little stinker.

I took 37 pictures in a row of Trey and they ALL had this huge cheeser grin.

April Update

April started out with a trip to Hollister for Easter and to celebrate Cruz, Kash, and Julie's birthday!  Curtis had to travel 2 out of 4 weeks this month, so that was rough - but luckily my mom could help me out.  He has to travel the same amount next month too, dang-it.  My mom recently had shoulder surgery - so she'll be out of commission for a few months (tear). But we'll figure it out.  My sister also came to town this past month, which was so fun!

We took the Costco carts to Winco.  :)  The only way to shop!

Cruz wants to help me pick up Tyson's "poo poo".  He'll go and grab pieces of tan bark with his baggy.  It's so funny. 

Two of our friends got Cruz, Kash & Julie these bike trailers for their birthdays.  We LOVE them!!!  

When you have triplets - you RARELY have a kid fall asleep on you.  You train your kids form the very beginning to fall asleep on their own in their cribs.  So when it does happen you soak it ALLLL in. 

He's getting addicted to his blanket and sucking his finger.  I try and keep the blankets in their cribs and only for night time, but occasionally I let them bring them downstairs after their naps for a few minutes, then put them back in their cribs.  I don't want them dragging them all over the house, or in the backyard, or bringing them out to Costco...

Obsessed.

Aunt Jamie got the trio a trampoline for their birthday.  They LOVE it!!  Trey loves it too.  They bounce him around and he laughs and laughs.  

Every once in a while I let them go at it and get mac n' cheese everywhere!!  All over the chairs, the floor, their bodies, their hair, the floor... So fun.  Not. 

Feeding the ducks.

Monterey Bay Aquarium.

Movie theater - Home. 

I ran my first 5K pulling these three behind me.  It really wasn't that bad.  The hardest part was the beginning trying to weave through the slower people and find my pace.  

I ran most of it with my friend Angie while she pushed her double stroller.

Love these girls!  

Her cute little pony tail. It reminds me of the top of a Christmas present.  :)

Giving hugs. 

Teaching Cruz how to say "cheese".
