Good night's sleep

It is amazing what a good night's sleep does for you (and what a bad night does too). This is tiring, but I am guessing every mom feels tired, especially when new people are added to the family. Anyway, these little babies are such good boys. They are big grunters, but don't cry a lot. They kind of keep each other calm. They are growing so much too! It has just been over a week and I can really notice a difference--especially with Scott. Scott is the bigger one, so it is always hard to tell if Austin is growing just because Scott is always bigger. They both seem to be filling out though, and eating a lot! Scott is on the right and Austin on the left
We went to check to see if Kate was asleep and found her like this--with her legs halfway under her dresser. She is such a funny girl!
We haven't had her hold the boys yet, she has had a lingering cough (that luckily, they haven't caught).

This was not posed--so sweet!

We are trying the swaddling method of bathing this time of around and Scott and Austin both LOVE it! It cracks me up how relaxed they are!
We are having a really fun time with the boys, even with the nights, it is great to have them home. That is the hard thing--the nights and hopefully soon they will get better. Everyone asks us how Kate is handling it, and she is handling it really well. I probably shouldn't be blogging and should be using this spare time to play with her, but she is doing well.
A side note--one thing about being sleep deprived is that everything is so much funnier. I love it because a small little thing just makes me hysterical.

Can I complain for a second?

I'm tired!

3 under 2

(for a few more weeks anyway) We have had a wild few days! Kate loved to meet her brothers and has been really good about it so far--we are just barely starting though, so we will see how that goes! I have been pleasantly surprised that I have some free time, not a lot (that is used to clean the kitchen, shower, and of course, blog! etc.) The scary thing is that this is when I have Jeff's help all day long! It is kind of a fun challenge to see how efficient we can get.

This is the first meeting

We have the boys sleeping together and they seem to like it!

So sweet...
And, of course, I have to throw in a little math, so

Scott + Austin
= Kate! Kate is a giant!

Impromptu Choir

This was the greatest thing! At church yesterday, they had an impromptu choir and anyone who wanted to could go up and sing. Jeff and I both went up and sang. I was so busy thinking how great it was and forgot to sing some of the time, but we had a good ole time. Yea for impromptu choir!

Funny Day Monday

So funny--as I was leaving the hospital, there are some tracks. The person in front of me (this car) couldn't decide whether to go or not when the rail was coming down. They inched forward, just enough for the bar to rest on their car! I could not believe it! And they just sat there with the bar on their car until they went up. I don't know if they were older people (there was a handicapped sticker on the car) or what the story was, but it was hilarious!!
Kate has decided during this past week that she is done with cribs. She has been put to bed in pack'n'plays and kept climbing out. Then, Saturday night, after we put Kate to bed, she comes walking down the hall! It was pretty darn funny! So for now, we put a queen size mattress from downstairs in her room.

We got our new van too! We got it a week ago and we are loving it!

I got a couple sweet pictures of the boys--I love these little guys!

This was not posed!

Kate with her cousins, she loved playing!

Not the best picture, but this is the last picture with the precious Civic. We also sold it last week.
