It's been awhile

Sorry its been so long since an update on our crew. We have been a little busy!! In March we took the triplets to WDW and had a FANTASTIC time. We drove in my parents Moty home as the triplets called and they enjoyed the freedom and staying at the RV parks. The LOVED all the characters they met and going on all the rides. We were a little afraid of the fireworks and the scary characters but just told them to go away and all was well again. JT's favorite part was the monorail. He got excited everytime we got on it. Claire LOVED the princesses and eating breackfast with all of them. Hazel DID not like having her picture taken most of the time but she loved Turtle Talk with Crush (DUDE!!!). Here are some of our favorite pics!

The whole family

Our first meeting with Mickey and Minnie!

We can't wait to go back!!!!

We have the girls very first dance recital on the 17th and the girls were excited to get their costumes last week. Although Hazel says she doesn't want to wear the crown?????

Ron and I have both been busy at work and have alot of things on the schedule for the summer. Hopefully it won't be that long before I post again. Sorry you had to wait to long hope to do better. Maybe look for some next week as we are going to our first Baseball game on Friday!!!!

Busy

Christmas and More

The C family has been very busy since Thanksgiving. We threw my mom a surprise retirement party with about 20 of her friends some she hadn't seen in 10 years. Then we went to Austin for my sister's graduation with her Masters Degree. We ate breakfast with Santa went to Lights in the Heights. Then it snowed in Houston! The triplets enjoyed watching the snow fall and actually cover the ground for a few hours. We had several Christmas pagents at church and Christmas Eve service with dancing camels! Sheesh!

Breakfast with Santa

We were awakend Christmas day by a beautiful choir of two girls singing Jingle Bells what a wonderful way to wake up. The triplets had a great Christmas spending time wtih family and eating alot. They are still discovering new toys everyday.

Mimi's Retirement Party

We are excited as their vocabulaies have exploded. We are truly blessed to have three healthy beautiful children to love and that are loved. I fell blessed to have a wonderful husband who loves and cares for us the way he does. I wouldn't be the same without him (love you Daddybabe!).

Lights in the Heights

We want to wish you all a Happy New Year. We look forward to what lies ahead with us in this New Year.

Happy New Year

Snow

Snow in Houston?

Well who would believe in a few short months we can have a massive hurricane and snow? Well its true at about 3:30 the snow started falling. The triplets enjoyed watching from the window as we are just now getting over sickies. Anyway this picture was out our front door. Enjoy!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

From our family to yours we want to wish you a safe and Happy Thanksgiving. The picture below was taken by our wonderful photography who is absolutly amazing.

Drum Roll Please!

Well I know some of you are curious how we fared with IKE. Our side fence came down and decided to try and come into our house. So IKE came to visit. We also had some water damage in our living room and I'm sure there is some in the Dining room but since we are going on 10 days with NO POWER we can't vacuum up the glass to no for sure yet. We are staying at my mom and dads so its not bad. We are told we may not have power till Thursday. We are grateful to be safe and sound. The rest is temporary!

So here are the results:

JT 29lbs 150z

33.5 inches long (he is 1 1/2 inches taller than his sisters!)

He is all boy full of rough and tumble. He loves his sisters or loves to harass them I'm not sure which :). He loves to make you laugh and tickle you.

Claire 27lbs 5 oz

32 inches long

She is the little mother hen. She has to know where everyone is all the time. She is also the chatter box. She has the most words and is always singing. She is warming up in dance class but not sure we will make it??

Hazel 26lbs

32 inches long

Well little miss peanut. She has given us a scare but in the end she has a cyst on her Kidney that we will be following up with a Urologist about. Compared to what it was looking like we are so thankful. She loves to sing her ABC's and 123's. She is a very picky eater and has to stay on soy milk since she was breaking out to milk. She DOES NOT like dance class so we will give it a few more weeks and decided?

We have started potty training but nothing intense. Claire has gone a couple of times but nothing consistent. They even say potty to Hazel and she runs screaming! We are in no hurry!!!

We have also decided to separate JT and the girls. They are not sleeping well at night and on the weekends. They are playing and aggravating each other. Our plan was to work on their rooms but IKE crushed that plan. So Mimi and Pawpaw took them early so we could get the work done.

Pictures will follow when we get home and get power!!!
