November...

November was an eventful month...

Yes, that's right sprinklers and diapers in November...
It's Texas, that's all I can say!!

The triplets hit six months on November 4th, it seems like it has been six days sometimes - and six years others!!  Bryan is the best big brother.  He loves to make the babies smile and has to constantly know what they are doing.  So far, he is doing great at sharing, but they are just starting to notice his toys, so we will see!!

Ruby la Luby is our big time talker.  She chatters away to anyone
or anything that she thinks is listening.  She loves to smile
and it is definitely contagious!!

Will-man is the instigator.  He steals pacis, pokes his sisters, and
wants to be in the middle of all of the action.  His a big smiler, too.
I'm pretty sure his smile is going to get him off the hook a lot in the
future - especially with me!!

Savannah is very serious.  She is an observer, an explorer, an all-around
mover and shaker.  She was the first to truly crawl, straight to Bryan's
toys!!  She knows what she wants and she goes after it.  Her smiles still
aren't as forthcoming as the other two, but they are certainly just as contagious!

6 months - I can hardly believe it!!

This is closer to the truth!!

My 4 greatest accomplishments in life!!
I couldn't have gotten any luckier than to be their mommy!!

Fast forward a couple of weeks and the holiday madness began.  Thanksgiving number 1 out in Combine.  We spent a great morning at Granny's house catching up with family and watching the kids play.  I can't wait until the triplets are running around with them - and the triplet boys (yes, that's right Trey's cousin and his wife also had triplets this year!!) can join in the fun.

Drummin' - the best part is that they hit their "drum sticks" together
first and count 1, 2, 3, 4...  Then, they bang on their drums.

Playing on the storm shelter - Jake is such a great "Big Cousin"
to Bryan and Skylar

What makes a better slide than a storm shelter door?

After Granny's, we loaded up the van and headed to Rowlett.  Thanksgiving number 2 at Aunt Debbie and Uncle Chris' house.  So great to catch up with more family.  It was especially good to get pictures of the kids with their GREAT GREAT grandmother.

Luke, Ruby, Savannah, William, and Skylar

(Ray, Jan, and Chris) and her great great grandchildren (Ruby,
Savannah, William, Bryan, Skylar, Luke, and Jake)

Then, I had to work for 2 days before we were off to the Hill Country.  We spent 5 days at my parent's ranch with Katie, Joel, and Cerah, my grandmother and several of my mom's brothers and sisters and their families.  It was so much fun to see everyone - we only see them once every couple of years.  Thanksgiving has become the most likely time for us to all get together and spend time catching up.  We missed my Aunt Laura and Aunt Nancy and their families, hopefully we will see them soon!

This is what Bryan was doing while I packed.... I don't ask questions anymore!!
I just go with it!

So thankful for my munchkins!!
Savannah, William, Bryan, and Ruby

We have been trying to figure out who William looks like...
Uncle Dabo got the most votes!!

They were inseparable!!  

One big basket!!

When we got home, the crud followed!!  It started with Ruby then moved to William.  We ended up having to give both breathing treatments for several days.  Thankfully, my mom was able to come up to help out so Trey and I could still go to work without having Laura come over - we didn't want her or Skylar getting sick before they went on their big trip!  Not long after Ruby and William were on the upswing, Bryan caught it.  We thought we were out of the woods and then Savannah and I started the cough and runny nose.  After two and a half weeks, though, I think we are finally over the roughest part and getting better just in time for Christmas!!  I can't wait!!
