Prunes and Dates

Every night while I'm cooking dinner, the girls instantly get hungry (of course, dinner is not yet ready), so they beg for food...usually Evelyn wants a carrot or a date, Sylvia wants a cracker or prune. They are silly. So glad they aren't begging for bad stuff...thankfully, they wouldn't know what to ask for!

Triplets!












On Friday, I offered to help my friend (Julia) out and watch her 19 month old (and one of the girls' best playmates). She now has a newborn and I thought she could use a break. We went to an indoor play area at a nearby mall. Good fun was had by all, but I am VERY thankful I have two, not three, the same age.

Busy Weekend



Finally we are back! Girls are heathy and we can have playdates! We have a lot to catch up on since many were cancelled. Friday, we took the girls to Chuck E. Cheese (a new one opened by our house). They open at 9am, so we had run of the place with only 2 other kids. While the girls didn't really get into the rides and games for their age group, they loved the slide and running around. Friday afternoon their girls best boyfriend, Wyatt, came over with his Mommy (Julia) and baby brother (4 weeks old!).



The rest of the weekend was very busy. Saturday, our friend Monique and her daughter Maya (2.5) came over to play. She is soon having baby girl #2 in April. We visited the pet store in the afternoon to pet doggies, see fish, meow at kitties and watch birdies fly. This is a regular outing when the weather isn't so great (it was rainy) this winter. There is a pet hospital, obedience school and groomers there so there are always lots of doggies to pet. Not sure I've mentioned that Evelyn is in love with her little puppy (she calls it pup-pup and named Biscuit after a series of childrens books they love) and she loves dogs! Sylvia does too, but I think she likes kitties better.

Sunday, we went to Mt Vernon (we have annual passes) to play in their children's play area and to check out the museum. That afternoon our friends Lynn and Brian visited with baby Morgan (9 mos) and watched the Super Bowl. Daddy was mad the Steelers lost.

More Teeth!

Sylvia's right lower lateral incisor emerged today, and she's definitely about to get her left lower canine. Evelyn's upper canines are bothering her too! I look at it like we have 4 more teeth for Sylvia (+ 2 more molars) and 2 more for Evelyn! Then, no more teething issues!
