Busy week here to say the least... We welcomed 3 new babies AND the big kids started 4th and 2nd grade!!! How did they get so big?

Triplets!!!

The triplets arrived last night.  Since it was the older kids first day of school they didn't get to meet them till this afternoon.  They were ALL so excited.  Even Kaden who seemed least interested was a baby hog and he came with this beautiful picture of his new siblings to show off!

Hair today, gone tomorrow


It's been a couple weeks but I'm just now getting around to mailing in our hair to Pantene, which reminded me I never posted pictures!

Mackinna and I each will be donating 9-10" to Pantene Beautiful a Lengths program for the second time in two years.  Hen loves her hair short and I'm happy too that it's not always dragging through her food and hanging in her face!  I do worry about having to do a bun for dance though!!!!  Hopefully it'll grow just a bit before competition season...

Big news - big boy!

J wore underpants all day yesterday without a single accident!  Maybe just maybe we won't have 4 kids in diapers at the same time after all!

Bye bye mullet!

Since he is 2 years old and was really starting to have a curly mullet, we decided it was time for a very small trim.  J had his first haircut this morning.  The big kids say you can't even tell, but he is pretty delighted and Mark is hopeful that people will stop calling him a girl.

J's 2 year check up

Jameson went to see Dr Youth today.  With all the appointments I've had lately, he was terribly confused and kept asking, "Doctor, check babies Mommy?"  I tried explaining the Dr was going to check my big boy, but he didn't seem on board until we actually got to the exam room, then he was all about it.  "More Doctor Mommy?" he said when Dr Youth went to leave.  He loved having his ears checked and did everything they asked of him, including stepping on the big kids scale and backing up to the wall mounted measuring stick, like the older kids do.  He told me he had to go potty during the exam, and held it until we were done, then went in the waiting room bathroom on the way out.  That is the first time I can say he held it- it was awesome.  Maybe if we make some big progress in the next couple of weeks we could avoid having 4 in diapers!

Here are his stats:
Height: 35.8"
Weight: 31lbs 3 oz
Head Circ: 20.98"

He seems so small to me, but after checking Kaden's 2 year stats, he's actually almost exactly the same. I was shocked!
