Busy!

We've been busy the past week or so...I just haven't had time to blog! Oh well! I don't stress about it! I'm sure you all can understand that being pregnant, taking care of almsot 10 month old triplets, a household, dinners, laundry...it all just doesn't ever stop. And to make things even harder, Tim is going to be working so much overtime these next few weeks...so that means no help at all! Oh well, we are just blessed he has a job that supports are growing family! Amen!

First of all, when I was little I couldn't wait to get "my own" mail...now the mail isn't much fun, since it's mostly all bills and trash...but I love ordering things online and waiting for the packages. Seriously, it's like Christmas morning when I see stuff sitting on the front porch or the UPS man pull up....and I even know what's in the packages.

I was so happy to get some great groupons recently for canvas prints and was super excited to order immediately!

I got a 16 x 20 wrap-around canvas gallery print for $45.00, which normally retails for $126.99! I also got an 8 x 10 for free and another 11 x 14 for only $13.99, both wrap-around cavnas gallery prints, which normally retails for over $65.00! With shipping on everything...I only spent $70.00 dollars, which is over $200.00 saved dollars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I could NOT wait to get these bad boys in the mail and hang them up on the wall!!!!
Finally, one of them arrived on Tuesday and I unwrapped that sucker so quick I couldn't even think! Haha! And the other one arrived on Friday!



 Also, last week, I finally, finally, finally put all my sonogram photos from my pregnancy with the girls into an album. I'm not too thrilled about it, but it's better then them being in a box. There were 145 photos and I just used a cheap Hallmark photo album. It's a total cop-out way to do an album and I say I'm not really proud of it because I LOVE scrapbooking and have been doing scrapbooks for years and have SO MUCH stuff, but my time is limited and really sonogram photos aren't that interesting to make an entire scrapbook out of, so I went the easy way. I just feel like I know I can do better than that. LOL.



 
This coming Saturday our local Parent's of Multiples is having their semi-annual sale so I have been busy tagging my items and getting them ready for sale! Whahoo, it's a big time constraint but well worth the time when you get the check at the end of the month....like, HELLO CHRISTMAS SHOPPING!!!!!!!!!

But I figured I would just highlight what we've been up to and I'll post details later this week, when I get around to them!
We went to lots of yard sales this weekend and enjoyed the beautiful weather. We even had some yummy pulled pork to support our local fire-house on Saturday!
Then, we went to the pumpkin patch:



On Sunday, we started to take our Fall Photos...but not everyone wanted to cooperate, so we will be doing some more another day!

Group photos were NOT happenin!

But we got some great individual shots!!! Starting to edit them...of course that's Miss Claire!

And over the weekend (10.15.11), Little Miss Madelynn started standing in her crib! She does it constantly now!


Natalee has started eating cheese (10.17.11), and about a hundred other things...she especially enjoyed the baked beans at the fire-house!

And I have ordered the girls birthday stuff, all handmade...and I could not be more excited! It is going to be a beautiful celebration and a little emotional for Mommy and Daddy!

  1. Parker does the same thing with her tongue, I think it's because she likes to play with her new teeth. :)

    I totally understand not having the time, I feel the exact same way and I'm not pregnant and I only have one baby! :)
