7.28.11: Home Owners

(front to back: daphne, stella, fiona)

That's right, we are officially home owners!!! In lieu of the quintessential key hand off picture, we had our notary take a picture just after Brant and I signed our lives away. The girls were rather patient during the signing but were getting a little restless around picture time (and who can blame them). After mailing the documents back to escrow, we had to wait for everything to be finalized....and today....it is! We are home owners! Brant and I have waited a long time for this milestone and we are more than ready to settle down and give our girls a permanent home where they can grow up.

7.17.11: Triplet tested

Our local big box retailer recently added some intriguing shopping carts. Upon first sight I thought to myself...those shopping carts are ridiculous, who would need such a thing? Then I realized that they are perfect for triplets! Perhaps the carts are intended for families with bigger kids who can't fit in the actual shopping cart or perhaps they are intended for larger families, but dare I dream to think they were intended for triplets? Okay, probably not - but we chose to embrace them. Our girls had a great time riding around the store all together and our shopping experience went rather smoothly. Definitely something we will test out again. Of course now the only challenge is finding one of these magic carts amongst the masses of a multi-floored store.

7.6.11: Family Day

Today was our third annual Family Day. July 6, 2009 was the day everyone was home from the hospital and we were finally all together healthy and happy. It will always be a very special day for our family.
