Some more misc pics

Lauren and her cousin Emily.

Peter, a great pic but serious circles under his eyes.

Mary in a sepia pic from an aquarium.

Sisters.

Fun with headbands

A more serious moment.

Sometimes the headband is just a little too tight.


Thomas waits for Lauren to guve him a turn.

More from 4th

Mary hugs her father.

Beautiful color and light. Posed, but dynamic as almost all the pics of the trips are.


Here Lauren plays with leaves floating down this crack in the rock. I thought about pshopping out the feet, but her focus seems more emphasized with the implied bustle around her.

More from throwing rocks with dad

Peter in a dramatic pose.

Here is Aaron stepping into the sunset.


Along with throwing rocks, the boys found some nice sticks. Thomas (above) was Moses while Peter was Aaron.

And some more

The boys practice being silly.


Lauren on the floor with a giggle.

Sorry for no recent posts

Thomas was happy to see that this rock looked like a heart. He wanted to give it to his mommy.


Sometimes making a living interferes with my blogging. Sorry. Really! These pics are from some time with just me and the boys (NRBQ anyone?) when Mom and Lauren went power shopping. We went to a nearby creek and threw rocks.

Set Your Way Back Machine for 2003

No ornaments were harmed during the making of this photo. OK it is a little cheesy and slightly taking advantage of their dimunitive stature, but if you are honest with youself, you would have taken this picture too. Am I right?

We spent a lot of time this way, holding, stroking, cooing at them through the glass.

One of the first group photos. Mom was still in her hospital gown.

Home and happy. Looking at these photos now brings an interesting mix of nostalgia, disbelief, and incredulity. While I KNOW these were our little birdlike children, it is difficult to accept that our bouncing, vibrant triplets were once such fragile little beings.

Photos from trip to Chattanooga in 05

Chattanooga Aquarium resident.

Peter stares at shark: Shark stares at dinner.

This one turned out nicely.

Thomas looks out the hotel window.

From the butterfly garden.

more from then

Becky took these in our Church playground on late evening.



She took a LOT of pictures, so I will be editing them for the next few posts. Thank goodness there were so many good pictures among the 250 or so taken!

days past

Peter

A special picture, Peter was just out of a body cast after breaking his left thigh. He had a tiny walker, but was just getting used to it on this trip. So we carried him a lot. Here his mom carries him to the car as Peter directs and I take the pic.
