Christmas Eve and Christmas Day 2008

Well, Brooks, Reese and Sloane enjoyed their 2nd Christmas. On Christmas Eve, we took the trio to eat pizza.....Brooks loved it and the girls were not sure what to think. Since we were recovering from RSV, we did not want to take them to church and risk more infection. I love this picture of Reese. The girls got dress up shoes for Christmas. She looks like a model with her hair over one eye...so cute!
My amazing husband...another wonderful holiday together.....

Our family (L-R): Sloane, Steve, Brooks, Candace and Reese.

23 months, holidays and RSV

I have not been able to post for awhile...so much has been happening! Brooks, Reese and Sloane turned 23 months on December 10. That day, I brought them home from Mother's Day Out...they all had a horrible cough. On the morning of December 11, I took them to the doctor...all three of them had RSV! This is the first season we have not received the shots to help keep children from getting RSV. So, I had to stay home with the three of them for about 9 days....giving breathing treatments 3 times a day. Steve would come home and take over after work....he is such an amazing father! Well, we finally got to leave...just in time to enjoy this holiday play date at a neighbor's house.
Here are Brooks and Sloane...admiring the tree. Sloane found a candy cane!

Reese was Miss Attitude that day.....

Brooks LOVES to color!

Here we are on our way to the play date in our choo choo wagon!

Mother of Multiples child holiday party

Brooks, Reese & Sloane were too young last year to enjoy any holiday parties, so we were excited this year to attend my local mother of multiples child party. The trio had a blast...bounce house...coloring and Santa! Here is Reese with the cutest smile on her face. I think she had a good time!
Sloane was working on a "master piece"....

Brooks will actually now say "cheese" if you point a camera at him! :)


Sloane...hmmm...wonder what she is up to now!


Reese found a candy cane!




Brooks loves to color....




The trio ALL sitting at the coloring table. This is a rare photo!

Our first family picture with Santa! Brooks, Reese & Sloane were not afraid but they DID want to run!

We love shoes!

Brooks, Reese and Sloane have now taken an interest in wearing our shoes. If we take off of our shoes and leave them on the floor....you better believe someone is going to be wearing them soon. We had some friends over who have twins...Brooks decided to wear one of the twins' shoes on one foot, and one of the adult shoes on the other foot: Sloane also got in on the action!
