20.5 Months---oye

Keith asked me the other night why I haven't posted in so long....silly question I know.  These children keep me busy!!  Let me try and update the best I can while they are napping.

Keith has settled into his new job here at Clyde and is about to start basketball season...which means we won't see him very much for a few months.  I have started a new business as a consultant for Tastefully Simple (gourmet food made simply)  You can check out my website HERE I am always looking for new customers, party hosts, and new consultants!  Ok my plug is over.  But really I LOVE selling Tastefully Simple, its fun and easy.  It does keep me busy too....a fun busy.

The kids are all healthy and doing well.

Ashton carries a giant bear around with him everywhere!  He loves it.  It's pretty cute.  He has also begun to throw fits and want to be held all the time.  This doesn't work so well when you have triplets.  Ashton is also talking a lot...especially about his bear!  He is excited about Trick or Treating this year and is going to be ... a bear!!

Keegan is still so sweet.  He doesn't through tantrums often except when he is extremely tired...and there is no calming him down when they happen.  Good thing they happen rarely.  He LOVES shoes still.  First thing in the morning he likes to put shoes on...whether they match or not...or even if they are on the wrong feet.  Try and take them off and he will let you know how he feels about that.  He is still really good at playing by himself and keeping himself entertained.  I have found that Keegan loves sweets...he has mommies taste buds.  For Halloween this year he is going to be a puppy!

Presley is a monkey and an entertainer.  Today when we were leaving a small store she said "bye" to everyone and waved.  When music comes on she busts out with her moves and sings.  She loves to sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.  Presley is still very attached to her elephant.  If she sees you put it into the washer (which you have to alot because she sucks on it) she flips out and full on tantrum begins.  She has also starting throwing awful tantrums.  Time out has been very affective for her and Ashton.  We put them in the corner of the hall and tell them they can get up when they are done screaming.  Sometimes it takes seconds...sometimes 10 minutes.  But it works and its safe.  Presley is so friendly I think she will really enjoy trick or treating.  She is going to be a cat!!

There is probably so much more I could tell you...but I just got done handling a few tantrums and my brain is fried.  If you have questions or want to know more about something feel free to leave a comment!

The kids have been spending their Thursdays at Mother Day Out at a church in Abilene.  I think it is good for them and great for me!  LOL.  Today they had a Halloween parade where they got to dress up and go around getting candy from Church volunteers.  I took a few pictures.  Forgive me but these are probably the only picture I have.  You can look at more if we are friends on facebook!
