Triplet Moms

I met up with my triplet moms tonight for dinner. I just love these ladies! We added a new member to our crew--Karissa is 32 weeks with GGB!!


PJ Day

They loved wearing their slippers to school...!




Running Club

Our principal came out to run with the running club this morning! It was a lot of fun. Jack also hit a milestone. He is the first kid to reach two marathons, 52.4 miles. Good job buddy!

Crazy Hair Day

Today was the first day of Catholic Schools Week. The kids had a free dress day with crazy hair and sock day. The girls wanted cupcakes in their hair. We sprayed glitter in Jack's. The girls loved my headband! It was also student appreciation day. The kids got popsicles and ice cream at school.

"Wait, Mom. Is this strong muscles?"

She and Jack have been doing push-ups. We told Jack that Kate was stronger than him (and I seriously think she is!), so that has motivated him to do them each day.



She also is getting more flexible!

Alter Server

Jack was super excited to alter serve today for the first time. Afterward, the woman who helps run it told me she was super proud of Jack for asking to carry up the cross since it is so heavy. She said most kids don't want to. He loved it and is excited to start serving on Sunday masses.

These girls are constantly wanting me to video and take pictures of all the new tricks they teach themselves. They will take classes again this summer, they can't hardly wait!

First Reconciliation

The girls made their First Reconciliation tonight. They picked out Gramdmom's dresses to wear. They were all a little nervous, but did fine. Anna was the first one to go, and she got a priest from Haiti that was really slow. I kept looking over to see if there was a problem, but he just took twice as long as the other priests. The other two went after her and finished before.

So happy they were finished!

Valentines

The girls and I worked on Valentines today! Some things are easier with triplets. Valentines times three is not one of them! 78 of these!

Petitions

Anna and Elizabeth both read petitions in mass today. They both did a beautiful job. I love how excited they are and the huge smile on their face when they finished!

After school, they wanted me to take a picture with their friends, the DiCarlos. These second grade girls are so much fun.



Razorback Gymnastics

We take the girls once a year to see the gymnastics in Fayetteville. Arkansas is ranked #8 this year and they went up against Missouri who is ranked #6. It was a fun meet, even through the girls were tired from a long week of school. We met some friends, the McCartys and the DiCarlos.
