Hike.

We invited ourselves to join my sister's family on a hike (thanks A-K for letting us crash your party!)  I didn't think I would do the whole loop with my kids in tow but, they did great (thanks to massive help from all members of the Bazan fam-dam).  It felt so great getting out in nature.  I'm now inspired to get my kids on that trail at least once a week this summer.

Ax did great (even with 2 left shoes on!)  

Matchy matchy.

This morning was the first walk around the lake in quite awhile.  Upon arriving to J&M's we realized all 3 blondies had their Converse on, all had matching strollers & all had matching blankets made by a dear distant relative.

Speaking of triplets... Can you imagine having to get one of THESE???  Personally, I think their should be a non-profit set-up to bless any parents of triplets with one... $1,000 for a jogger!?!?  Yikes!

Ready!

Tomorrow is going to be our family's Christmas morning.  

The "stockings" are ready & I'm giddy with excitement!

she's her mama's daughter

Sprinkler.

L has been super clingy and whiney all day so, when my parents invited us over for dinner I thought it would be a perfect opportunity to get out of the house and play outside a bit.  We packed her "swim soup" and were off!  As the evening wore on, she didn't eat much (except blueberries of course) and felt warm.  When we arrived home she had a temp of 103.4!  Ugh, how did I miss this all day?  Here are some shots of my little sicky running through gram and papa's sprinkler as Axel watches from his little perch on the lawn.

everything's more fun with a swim noodle

this is my favorite pic, she put her shoes on all by herself!

if you look closely you'll see her walking around nakie with a baby-doll thrown over her shoulder, classic Lai...

fun evening with papa (and gram!)
