Late June

Our friend Eric lent us his really fancy camera this past week, so Chrissy took all sorts of pictures trying it out. We also met up with some friends of ours Becky and Dave, who happen to have two sets of twins!

Late June

Play during the vacay

This past week our family took a vacation to the beach with our good friends Steph, Al, and their son Sam. We also visited with Al's family as they joined us for the joint trip.

Picasa June

Chrissy loves to take nature pictures, and the following pictures she managed to catch during a spare moment here or there.

For it's Three strikes and you're out at the old ball game

Today we ventured out to our first MLB game. Casey, Gavin, and Liam loved riding up and down the escalator at the ballfield, as well as running up and down the stairs in our section. They managed a few bites of their lunch (mac and cheese). Yet when it came to watching the game, well, let's just say they're not full fans yet.

Children's Festivities

Today Casey, Gavin, and Liam met up with some friends for a playdate at a Children's Festival. They started the morning by watching a production of The Runaway Bunny and Goodnight Moon. Then we all walked together to the carousel and took a ride. Later we enjoyed the goats and sheep at the petting zoo.

Fun with Daddy

Today Chrissy played around with her camera, testing out an old external flash. Everyone became an eager subject.

Picasa May Album

Cinco de mayo con los tres amigos

We all love balloons. In this video, Gavin, Liam, and Casey show how they ride the balloons. This is our take on the rodeo theme.

Three naps at once and other time saving techniques

As you may have guessed, it takes some time to raise three children. There are meals to prepare, food to buy, places like the park and the zoo to go, as well as some fun playdates. So Chrissy hasn't really figured out how to do all of this plus update the blog in a timely manner. But I think I figured out a trick. I think from here on out I'm just going to add links to our Picasa album. Really, it's just the pictures I want to share, and I've got tons of pictures on my camera and hundreds more on the computer, just waiting to share just like the piles of laundry taking over the closet in Casey, Gavin, and Liam's room.
Click on this link, and you'll find a recent album of our adventures climbing playground equipment. As you can see, we like to climb up, down, and all around!
