I Love, Love, Love Cloth diapers!


I have been using cloth diapers for about 3 months now on the Triplets and I have become so addicted! There are so many diapers to try, so many fun/cute prints & I love to see their tiny little tushies in cloth! I was completely against using cloth diapers for the longest time, but times have really changed! So many people say "I can't believe you cloth diaper its so much work", well anyone who says that has NEVER used cloth. It is very simple and oh so much fun, plus for me I have triplets so I need to save the money and the bonus is I get to do something fantastic for our enviornment. Cloth is better for my babies skin too! Really its only an extra load or in mycase 2 extra loads of laundry a day. (its only 2 loads for my cause I still need to build my stash! =) I have converted 3 other triplet moms to cloth diaper and have reffered them to kellys closet! Hope that I can convert many more moms to join the cloth diapering train, wish me luck!


I was introduced by a friend to Kelly's closet and I have been shopping there ever since. Kelly's closet is very easy to navigate, they have great products and the customer service is awesome! They also have a points system which I love, you get 1 point for each dollar you spend and when you have a certain number of points you can trade it in for gift certficates. Plus Kelly's Closet has a plethra of products to choose from, it cant get any better than that! Being green is so much fun, get on the train and start cloth diapeirng today, make sure to check out Kelly's closet for all your cloth diapering needs! =)

Awesome website that you should try out!

Hey everyone!

I have been using this website now for a while and think it is absolutely wonderful. In todays economy it is really hard to be able to enjoy buying nice things for your children, family or even yourself, well www.MamaBargains.com really helps! It is a FANTASTIC group of mothers that started in 2008 offering great bargains to everyone!

Here's how it works:

Everyday Mamabargains offers deals, you have no idea when a new deal will be posted so you kinda have to be a stalker of the website, which I have become very good at! =) Most days you will see between 2 & 10 deals a day, when one item sells out a new deal is posted. Or if an item has been up for a while and still does not sell out sometimes a new deal will be posted. Another great feature is there are "Repeats", so if you miss an item it just might come back up, so don't worry! I hope all of you become addicted just like me!
Their customer service is top notch! If you have an issue with a product or just a question in general they not only get back to you in a timely manner but they are so kind!

Everyone who in anyone should be a fan of www.Mamabargains.com and start saving money by getting bargains!!!

Easter 2010

Our Babies!!!





Blake














Brooke























Ben



Here are the babies on their first Easter!!! We had a great day, the babies enjoyed thier baskets! The Easter Bunny brought them each a book, a pair of squeaker shoes for each of them and a Saranoni blanket! They slept pretty much all day, took a 4 hour nap in the middle of the day so they were in a great mood for their photo shoot! We also saw the Easter Bunny on Saturday, the kiddos did great, the Easter Bunny held all 3 of them for a picture. We can't wait for next year so they can hunt for eggs!!!

Holy cow 4 months already, times really does fly by.....





























We had our first adventure with professional portraits when the babies turned 4 months old. Things went pretty well even though the babies were super tired and about 1.5 hours after their nap time, but we ended up getting some really great shots! The babies have changed so much over the last month, they each have their own different personality and likes and dislikes too! They are growing up so fast.


Alittle bit about Benjamin:
Ben is a little flirt eveytime people talk to him whether it be at home or when we are out and about he always gives a little smile with his cute little dimples and sometimes even raises and eyebrow! He is very much a momma's boy (sorry daddy!), and VERY sensitive! It is very cute when he gets his little sad face with a big pouty lip, sometimes we fall for it but not always! =) Ben is a big boy at his 4 month check up he was 13lbs 3 oz and 23 inches long. He is doing great at tummy time lifting his head but does not like it for very long, he stands with help for a few seconds, he coos, smiles and really looks at us now! He has also recently found his hands and brings them to his mouth. What a big boy!

Alittle bit about Blake:
Blake is definatley a funny baby, he has the best facial expressions when he is happy or sad, his smile could make you laugh no matter what kind of mood you are in! Blake is content with mommy or daddy or pretty much anyone who will hold him, but he does like his independent time too. He likes to have things his way or no way and is very impatient especially when it comes to food, when he wants to eat you better have it ready! Lol! He loves to coo and smile alot too! Blake is growing well at his 4 month check up he was 11lbs 10oz and 21 inches long. He really likes to be on his back staring at a picture of the 3 of them, he will coo at that picture for a long time! He has been able to get his thumb in his mouth a few times and loves to suck on his fists.
Alittle bit about Brooklynn:
Brooklynn is very much a princess! She is extremely talkative and smiley, she engages very well when we talk to her! She likes tummytime and will stay there for about 5-10 mins very content but then wants to be turned over to her back so she can talk to our celing fan we call it her "Fan Friend". She smiles and squeals at our fan like it is a funny movie! She loves to be snuggled by mommy or daddy, and she also recognizes us when we go into her room and she greets us with a sweet smile and coos. She can be a little stinker when she is overly tired and will fight naptime by crying VERY loud for about 2 mins, then falls fast asleep, it is very amusing. At her 4 month check up she was 10lbs 8oz and 22 inches long. She is still the smallest but growing very fast!
It seems like yesterday that I was still on bedrest trying to hold them in for as long as possible. Both Carl & I look at them and think how could we be so lucky to have 3 beautiful, healthy children. We could not be prouder parents if we tried!

Snuggling with blankets made by Tutu!




We were so excited when out blankets got here from Tutu, we love to snuggle up with our blankies! Tutu made Brooklynn a pink, Ben a blue and Blake a green, they love them so much!

Brother Snuggle time




Blake and Ben were so tuckered out that they fell asleep on the couch together, it was priceless!
