8.22.09: Alone

Well the day finally came, our help is all gone and not just for a couple days (as we have handled before) but for over a month. Until now, we have been spoiled by an onslaught of family and friends helping us to get settled in with the girls and even our new home. Of course we realize that everyone has a life beyond us and we must learn to live as a new nuclear family (triplets and all). We decided that we couldn't live in a box with the girls, we must get out and enjoy our new surroundings - newborns and all. So today we went out to dinner. We got some burritos (ahh loving the food in southern CA) and the girls were wonderful. The stroller makes walking around our new area so easy....we rarely have to drive (a welcome treat after Brant's commute in Chicago).
