Chile in Rio

Once again the Hubby left on "Another Buisness Trip" this time to Chile, South America for a week and what does Wifey-Pooh do best!..... Take a trip herself! This time I will be going to "RIO" No not Rio, South America but Rio, Las Vegas! Ha I am in need of some R and R with Triplets in the house as much as I love my Babies, I am in need of a mini vacation. I will be leaving tonight for some very well earned relaxation time for a full body massage at the day spa, " Shopping" and of course " GAMBLING BABY" So wish me Lot'sa Luck. Oh and lets not forget sipping on great drinks high above the Rio Roof top at the Voo Doo Lounge. See you all next time.

Who Pooped!

With 3 toddlers running around the house, the words “who pooped?” must come out of our mouth several times a day. This usually results in a game of chase as the Kieran, Haydan & Presley take off in all different directions trying to avoid the inevitable diaper change. Most of the time, the identity of the pooper is unknown until we either peek into the back of the diaper and see the smelly "Whodunit" or if one of us is feeling particularly brave, ( That would be me or Angela ) We simply bury our nose into their backside and sniff it out. Kieran, Haydan and especially Presley have become quite helpful in the “who pooped?” game as they can speak they all would say " It was Kieran!" "It was Haydan!" or "It was Presley!" or they all take turns peeking down the back of each others pants looking for poo-poo.

Triple The Traffic

My Backyard looked like a Major Freeway intersection. With three high power energetic babies riding tricycles and cars you better watch your toes.....

Video clip of Kieran,Seconds ago learned how to peddle his Tricycle.

Goodbye Oma

Yesterday the triplets Oma " Grandmother" returned home to Amsterdam, The triplets sang one last song with their her before she headed to the airport. They will all Miss her so! Hurry Back Oma!! Here is a little video of Oma Nina singing to each Triplet

Hanging Out!

I love these pictures of the boys we spend alot of outside time in the backyard just playing and having so much fun

Friday morning The Triplets helped Auntie Norma pick the last of the tomatoes and Haydan at the end of the picking decided he was going to make his own tomatoe sauce! Erggh! There is "NEVER" a dull moment when there are Triplets around.

My Triplet's are back!

My Babies are back! They arrived yesterday afternoon. after being away from them for a whole week and 1 day, I was so happy to see my sweet Triplets back with us.

This Morning Kieran, Haydan & Presley decide to explore my kitchen. They all pulled their chairs up to the counter and check out everything in my kitchen drawers. Hmmm, I wonder who's bright idea that was.

I gave Angela the day off so she can go and do whatever she like. So I got the Triplets all dressed and out the door by 10:00am to do what I love to do best, " Go Shopping."

Our last stop was Sams Club. My poor Haydan was getting so crowded with stuff in the cart that he started to Panic! Hahaha so I stop filling up the cart and headed towards the checkout counters.

It's so incredible how 3 little toddlers can be on their best behavior for 3 hours of shopping. ( They all have great listening ears when they are with Auntie Norma)

Gosh I need to take the Triplets with me every time I shop at Sams Club. As much as I go to Sams club I could never just buy a few items there is always something to buy. When I get home I realize I already have that item. And if I take the Triplets with me to Sams I know I need to stop filling up my cart with stuff " When a Triplet starts to Panic due to getting pretty tight in the cart!"

Happy 40th Birthday Monica

Saturday 22, We attended Monica's Big 40th Birthday. We had such a great time. Monica was born in the 60's so she wanted a 1960's Theme. Great Idea. I absolutely loved it made me only wish I was in my 20 back in those days. I love the different kinds of 60's attire so cool. I even loved my Afro with my cute pink hair pick. Ha Rudy dressed like a hippie and our son Jon looked like Jimmy Hendricks. He look Hot! Check out the picture below. Our Birthday girl Monica dressed up as Katherine Hepburn.

My son's band Nextdoor played at the party it was so much fun being able to let go and dance along with their music. I really don't get a chance to do it at his shows. I don't want to embarrass him in front of his fans. Hey I dance very well thank you. Monica's son Justin is also in our son's Band

Remember When

My son Jonathan showed me this video today and said Remember Mom when we use to do this to you? I looked at him and said, Oh God Yes! Now let me try to forget real fast! I use to hate when the boys where young and they would come over to where I was relaxing after a long day at work and repeat my name over and over. So glad they don't do that now!

Happy 19th Birthday My Baby

Okay it's 9 days late but here it is! Our son Jonathan turned 19 years old 9 days ago! Happy Birthday My Baby! Yes I am so behind posting all my stories for the beginning of this month, With my computer acting up and just to busy with the triplets I could not do it. So stop your whining Ha

We all celebrated Jonathan's 19th Birthday at P.F. Chang's China Bistro down at the Long Beach Pike. We had a total of 19 guest to help celebrate Jonathan's Birthday. The food is always yummy there and the Triplets behaved so well and ate everything on their plates. After dinner most of us stayed and walked down to the lighthouse and took lots of pictures.

Martini Party

Click arrow to watch the slide show Martini Party at the Bells. George and Mary Bell held another great Martini Party . Mmmm I must of sampled at least 5 different kind of Martini's, My 1# favorite Martini was the Godiva Chocolate Martini. Wow it was the best! For those of you thinking about my 5 drinks, Yes I did try 5 but they where very little samples ( My request) okay 4 little samples the Godiva chocolate Martini was a full glass. I did not drink much, I have to be bright eyes and bushy tail in the morning for the Triples, Remember they are staying with us for a while. It was such an enjoyable night with all our close friends, Great food, and Karaoke all night. We had so many talented singers belting it out for the crowd. If you know George Bell and " Jerry Stout" it would not surprise you when I say George Bell, Jerry Stout and some of the other guest played a little game of Golf out in the back yard. Ha! See for yourself! Thanks again George and Mary Bell "We love you!"

Dancing Babies

Everybody know how much I hate Disneyland, But I love Downtown Disney, Hmmm Maybe it the shopping that make me love it, like Sephora, Anne Geddes, Something Silver, Marceline's Confectionery and Club Libby Lu (for Presley) just to name a few. and lets not forget the live Entertainment.

Last week Angela & I took the Triplets. We had such a great time. We went into the Disney Store. I just had to buy our sweet Presley her very own Minnie Mouse Dress. Her eyes lighted up when she put it on. Awwww she looks so cute. Just look at her. I showed her how to twirl around in her dress. We stopped and listen to one of my favorite live entertainment " Alturas" so the kiddies could listen to it and dance. At first they where a bit shy but after 2 songs they were right at home. Dancing around. Presley was putting on her very own show. She loves the attention. She even had "Dyan Cannon" full attention.

Where's Papa

With Patrick away on Company Business for 6 weeks, The Triplets are always asking for their Papa. We tell them "Papa is in South Carolina". They all pretty much got that message through their sweet heads, They now respond when we ask them where their Papa is. ( Sorry the video quality is not that great )

Kids say the funniest things

The other day I over heard my sister asking her son Haydan,

Mommy; Haydan are you a girl or a boy?

Haydan; I'm a Children!

Kids say the funniest things. The reason why my sister asked haydan that question was because Haydan was upset Presley would not share her Ballerina Tutu with him!

Hahaha

America's Next Top Model

I purchased this Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Polka Dot Bikini for the Princess the other day and Presley immediately put it on. We all know how much our sweet Presley loves to Ham it up for the camera, so what does Auntie Norma do best? Take pictures of course.

Let's Welcome Aiden Bryce Calderon into the world

What an wonderful day. As we celebrating our 20th Wedding anniversary, We also celebrated the arrival of Baby Aiden Bryce Calderon son to Joe & Kristi Calderon.

After going out for a nice romantic anniversary dinner, Rudy and I went to the hospital to check in on the Calderon Family. Baby Aiden arrived 8 weeks early. He was born today at 10:50 am. Weighing in at 2 lbs and 14 oz and 15" long. Sweet baby Aiden with Gods grace is doing great he is able to breathe on his own without any help. WOW God is so awesome.

Kristi is experience a lot of discomfort due to her C-section, But she still managed to give us her beautiful sweet smile. We all need to keep her and baby Aiden in our prayers for a speedy recovery.

Joe took my camera into the NICU and took pictures of the baby so I can share it with you.

As we hung around with Joe and the rest of the family in the waiting room, Alexia and Noah always act silly in front of my camera as you can see for yourself.

Again Congratulations Joe, Kristi, Alexia and Noah

Triple Duty

What can I say about our wonderful little monkeys Kieran, Haydan & Miss Presley without taking up to much posting space. I love having them around. They all just make our day. I know to most of you you might think having three 2 year old's to take care of all day long and night must be a nightmare! IT'S NOT! It is such a beautiful blessing and an honor to be able to watch over them. I thank God for giving me all the patience and overwhelming love to give each and everyone of them. Oh Goodness where to start. Thursday morning started off great. I was dressed with makeup on by 7am. I left the family room for just a minute or two to pour a cup a coffee, The kiddies manage to get into my makeup bag and this is what happened. Errgh! I could spend the whole day just sitting back and watching how silly the Triplets can be. Between swimming in the pool and playing with their toys they always find their way to the couch for some wild monkeying around. With temperatures soaring in So Cal the Triplets have become water babies. and they all seem to never get enough of it.

When the sun goes down we hit the Park. Haydan & Presley love the swings, Kieran hates the swings and stays away as much as possible. He loves to rock on the pony rocker. Our sweet little Miss Presley has become a wild and crazed sand throwing monster. She's sweet one minute and next she's throwing sand at her brothers.

At the end of the day after picking up many times after the triplets, changing many diapers, preparing lot's of meals, cleaning up a whole lotta spills, wiping dirty little faces, and feeling my body exhausted with no energy in sight and finally putting Three little ones down for the night. and as I kiss and hug each one of them one by one good night, I Thank God for such a great day and allowing me to have them in my life, And I look forward for another day with all my sweet babies.
