Summer Fun!

The last few weeks have been lots of fun around here. Father's Day, 4th of July and lots of family get togethers have kept us busy, but have also been a blast. We have been really enjoying our time lately too because all 3 babies have started sleeping through the night! Kayla was still sleeping in our room up until about a week ago, but now she's in her crib and is seeming to thrive on having her independence. The last few nights we have been able to put the babies down at 7:45 pm and they will sleep until 7:00 am! Hallelujah! It has been wonderful to have more sleep. The other morning I woke up and saw the clock said 6:00 am and I didn't hear a peep, and I honestly thought I was dreaming!

Another milestone we reached recently was that the babies are now starting on solids! On Father's Day, we headed over to Mimi & Grandpa's for a big family get together and the main event was feeding the babies rice cereal for the first time. They of course weren't sure about it at first, but it has quickly become a hit, and we're starting on some new fruits and veggies now too. It's lots of fun, but lots more mess!

We've included lots of pics and videos this time. We really have been enjoying our time with our little cuties and just wanted to share all the fun!


This was Rich's first Father's Day. He is such a proud papa.


 
The boys and their Dad. He can always make them laugh, even when they are in a bad mood.


 
Kayla, Braden & Daniel all love spending time in the ExerSaucer.


 
Sometimes all that jumping is just so tiring.



Kayla loves to blow bubbles. This particular day she was blowing bubbles the entire time I was feeding her.



Braden likes to imitate sounds these days. Here his Daddy is getting him to show off his "deep voice" laugh.



The babies love to laugh at their Dad. And Rich will do whatever it takes to get them to laugh, even if it means looking and sounding goofy in the process.


And all three babies would like to wish everyone a happy 4th of July!

  2. OH my goodness, Julie, what a smiling bunch they are! I'm sure that even on your most exausting day, a smile from one of them makes it all worth it! And of course, they have such sweet parents, how could they not! Glad to see you're all well!
