Our Three Blessings

I actually managed to get all 3 babies to sit, look at the camera, and smile.

Today was Eric's morning to sleep in. We take turns on the weekend getting a little extra much needed sleep. So this morning I got up with the babies. We had fun playing...well I had fun playing and taking pictures. There's nothing like a brother to steam roller you and smash your face. While we were playing I put the boys in the toy bucket with a few of their toys to see what they would do. They didn't mind sitting in the bucket with their toys, just something new and fun to explore. They always enjoy playing with the bucket as much as the toys. They are mobile enough now that they can make their way over to it and dump all the toys out and play with the box. Ethan wants the big toy in the bucket Logan in the bucket Ethan in the bucket Meanwhile Leah was busy examining her toys. She loves to hold them and turn them around in her hands to get a good look. If she's not examining them she's clapping them together to make noise. Leah examining the rat...

I know Ethan was just looking out for mommy by getting up 6 times last night. He just wanted to make sure I drank plenty of hot liquids (coffee) to flush away the germs in my body. (See #6 below) Logan and Leah were also doing their part, sleeping through the night, ensuring that mommy kept her sanity.

It is pink week at I ♥ Faces. I absolutely love this photo of Leah. I love that I have my little girl and can dress her in pink all the time. Take a look at all the other great pink week photos at I ♥ faces .

Last weekend we made our way to the Apple Orchard. The plan was to have a snack, take pictures with the pumpkins and walk around to look at the animals. We had a nice surprise when we got there. My parents were 2 tables over enjoying their own cider and doughnuts. So they came over and joined us with their snack. Then we all took the babies out to sit with the pumpkins. Unfortunately, it was a bit too chilly out for walking around much. It was only 45 degrees out and overcast. I was chilled and the babies weren't their usual happy self, so we packed up and went home. I was able to get a few pumpkin pictures and took more after we got home with our pumpkin. After sitting for a bit with the pumpkins, Logan decided they would be fun to lick Logan and Mommy Leah and Daddy Logan and Grandma Rosie and Grandpa Ethan Leah Logan Logan & Ethan Leah

I was reviewing my september photo folder of the babies and noticed I took around 500 pictures last month. In the typical family the first baby tends to have lots of pictures. So naturally I will have 3x the quantity of first baby pictures. In an alternate universe where I only had one baby at a time, I'd probably have taken just as many pictures or more. I can only assume with one child that I'd drag them all over the place (actually leave the house) and take pictures where ever we went, like the park or the backyard. Now that the leaves are starting to change colors around her I've noticed all the pretty piles of yellow leaves on the ground, the pretty red bushes in contrast to the green grass and gray boulders, I can't help day dreaming about taking pictures. My photo day dreaming didn't stop once I was back in our house. I was walking around seeing neat spots to stick the babies for pictures. I ended up setting them on the wood floor in the foyer next to the wal...
