Our life with triplet daughters from hospital bed rest, to NICU, to CPR scare, to . . . well, enjoy over five years of weekly blogs!
 |
| Cheese, it's our last day of gymnastics while we start dance! |
 |
| Dance. Dance. Dance. |
 |
| Dad went away to the dorms for a weekend to run Grandma's Marathon. 3:59:01 . . . just under 4 hours. |
 |
| We're gonna ride horses. |
 |
| They actually did very well. |
 |
| Can you make the horsey go faster? |
 |
| I can do it myself! |
 |
| C'mon. Go horsey. Go. |
 |
| Alright. You can help. |
 |
| I am an equestrian, or is it equestrienne? . |
 |
| I know. My feet don't reach. I get that a lot. |
 |
| Giddy up! Seeya next week! |
 |
| Mindy on first, the girls at second, short, and third. |
 |
| Can't wait for the neighbor girls to come out and play. |
 |
| I really don't get the heels in the grass, must be a triplets thing . . . |
 |
| The princesses and the princesses. |
 |
| Little bit of a rain delay at the ballpark. |
 |
| The sisters block all doing something with sunglasses at the same time, go figure. |
 |
| Cheese! |
 |
| Dad, are you really going to Minnesota for a Marathon? |
 |
| Well, if you run fast, you can make it back before Sophia's over. |
 |
| I hope you run fast. |
 |
| Campanile at Dusk. I have a feeling one will go to ISU, one to Iowa and one to Drake. Mindy can pay the Drake tuition...or they could all go to DMACC for free! |
 |
| I don't know why they do this. They make us step over them. |
 |
| Silly dad, we're just stalling so we don't have to go to bed. |
 |
| Happy we haven't gotten dressed yet this morning. |
 |
| View from the top. |
 |
| What are you doing Rianne? I'm separating the straws, you can help me if you want. |
 |
| Yup, the yellow ones go in first. |
 |
| Yup, the blue ones are next. |
 | ||||
| Don't let those touch. It's just like mom's food, it can't touch at all. |
 |
| I smile now. Seeya next week! |
 |
| Mitchell's 5th Birthday . . . You'd think each of them was getting a present. |
 |
| You can't see it, but Mitchell kept opening the present before the card and his dad is trying to get him to read the cards . . . |
 |
| Soon it's going to be my birthday . . . Teagan: and mine . . . |
 |
| Focus . . . back to the presents . . . |
 |
| Earthquake? |
 |
| Dad, come find us! |
 |
| A quick warm up lap around the track . . . |
 |
| Ready to do a mile Brielle? Teagan? Yup. We're ready. |
 |
| Ready, Rianne? Sure. |
 |
| The girls get to meet some other under six years old participants. |
 |
| That boy's ahead of us. |
 |
| Boys this age always go out and sprint the first 50 meters, we'll catch him at the finish line. Seeya next week! |
