Our Three Blessings

If they made a baby version of the old movie Tron, I think this is what it would look like...

This is my Everest... Not even a full week's worth of laundry

I happened to stumble across a really neat photography blog, I ♥ Faces. They host a weekly photo contest. This week the theme is "blue." I couldn't resist entering and thought this picture of Ethan (the 1st time he held his head up) was perfect. Check out the other Blue contest entries at I ♥ Faces.

With the temperature in the mid 50's today, I decided to break out the new pajamas. They are so warm and snugly, too bad they don't come in my size. I bought 12 month hoping they would last a while...but they actually fit pretty well with just a little room to grow. I've also been having fun putting the boys in matching outfits. I just can't help myself. Ethan, Leah, & Logan

After gallons of drool and an unhappy boy for a few days Logan's first tooth finally popped through yesterday. So the total tooth count is now up to 5. Ethan 2, Leah 2, and Logan 1. Leah also had a fun accomplishment yesterday. She finally rolled over from her back to her belly. She has been rolling half way and then would give up...yaa Leah. Now I just need them to learn to sleep in on the weekend. All week I had to wake them up around 6 so we'd be ready to leave in the morning...today they decided to get up around 5:30. Don't they know it's Saturday and mommy stayed up watching a movie last night. Here they all are this morning...

I've never been a big runner...but after this week I just needed to move. So today at lunch I laced up my running shoes and hit the track. I didn't have any intentions of doing a 5k I just wanted to run (a.k.a. jog at an embarrassingly slow pace). I managed to jog the first 2 miles and walk the rest. I'm sure I won't be able to walk later, but it felt good. My hips have never been great and after getting stretched out from the babies they are not quite the same. If I cut more aggressively at soccer or run distances on the pavement my hip tends to go out a bit and hurt a lot. So we'll see how I do tomorrow. The 5K took me around 40 minutes, like I said embarrassingly slow, but there is always next week. I might just have to dig out my fancy heart monitor watch again and time myself a bit better.

If you have a little one in the house it's always a good idea to brush up on CPR and first aid. You never know what will happen. Here are a couple links to first aid and CPR info. Infant First Aid CPR child 1-to-8 yrs-old I have to premise the story...Ethan is ok and back to normal. Yesterday morning Ethan was sitting on the floor playing with the other 2 babies and his cousin. He had a pillow behind him just in case he tipped over while sitting. Some how he managed to tip over and hit the floor. His helmet shifted and hit his nose when he fell. The hit gave him a bloody nose, so Jena went to tell Grandma that he tipped over and was bleeding. When Grandma got to him, he had blood all over his nose and mouth and he wasn't breathing. After Grandma gave him several chest compressions he coughed up some blood and started breathing again. EMS came and checked him out and he appeared fine. I had just arrived at work when I got the phone call of the accident and turned right a...
