Triplets Everywhere!

The Whole Crew!



Hailey and Taylor




Emily and Brooke



Addison and Sydney



This morning Shelly and her triples came over to visit for the first time! (Shelly's family blog is what inspired me to do a blog and to keep it current, the best thing ever). I love seeing what those ladies are up to by reading their blog, and Shelly is so funny with her posts, it is very entertaining. I met Shelly through the online triplet moms group and we had an instant connection because our stories are so incredibly similiar (almost a little scary). We both have spontaneous triplet girls, one fraternal girl and a set of identicals. The craziest thing is that they were both born on October 3rd two years apart! We both assigned each girl a color and we somehow chose the same colors for the corresponding child (Sydney and Addison, the fraternal girls are purple, Brooke and Emily, the smallest are both green and Taylor and Hailey are both pink) WEIRD!!!!

Shelly and I seem to be similar in many ways too, pretty laid back, and love to hit the mall. The guys have not met yet, but I am sure they will get along great, they both enjoy sports! Shelly's husband Ryan and I both went to Brookfield East High School, although I was out before he even entered. Probably the biggest difference between us and them is that we are considerably older :(

It was so much fun to get a glimpse into having three two in a half year olds running around. Addison, Haley and Emily are very well behaved little girls and are a joy to be around. I am so impressed with how Shelly handles things with the girls. I will definitely be looking to her for tips on how to have the control that she does with her girls. She was in the bathroom with the girls probably at least 10 times, they are potty trained now YEAH GIRLS, an endeavor that scares me a little. I imagine new bathrooms are pretty exciting to two year olds! The girls loved the dogs and at one point were taking Wrigleys' toys out one and a time and throwing them for him, he hasn't had that much excitement for a long time, he was exhausted! Gosh there were so many cute things they were doing the whole time. We had a blast! They are so incredibly sweet!!!! Oh, one thing that was just darling was when Addison was holding Sydney she was looking at her and then gave her a tender little kiss on the head. What a cutie!
