Tiff's Turn

Did you get to get outside to enjoy the beautiful weather this weekend? The kids were in heaven with the time outdoors, especially since we have been cooped up inside for quite a while. I've had good luck with taking both Aria and Livi with me while I run quick errands lately. Next time I'll take one of the boys. The kid carts at the store are always a hit. While it's oh-so-fun to get out with the kids, the inside of the house has been driving me crazy lately. I've been trying to de-clutter and organize little bits at a time. So far, I have managed to complete this task of creating a chalkboard wall/ "Command Center" in the kitchen. Aria is my mini organizer. She takes it upon herself to gather up things without my help or prompting. So when Livi's formula came that I ordered from the Target sale, she brought her stool to the kitchen, took all the tubs out of the box and stacked them at Bottle Central. I wanted to keep ...

The nursery is done! Sure, I have a few more things to add like sheets, but the babies now have a room to call their own. Finishing the basement and moving my stepson down there is still a work in progress, but it won't be much longer. I cannot believe this nursery used to be his room. The difference is night and day! Before: The nursery would not have been done this soon without my friend Beth. She is an interior design angel! Beth spent our spring break this weekend painting and creating. It took her about one evening to paint and hang curtains. Another day this weekend was spent adding the decorations and furniture. After:  The only thing we had ready to go before Beth came in was the grey cribs. Beth found this amazing dresser, which she painted white.  She made the "No wake zone" sign out of her old fence posts. The frames on the wall will eventually be filled with each baby's newborn picture. That foot rest Aria is st...

Did everyone have a good Easter? Our family's day was fabulous. I love Easter for the family time, but I also love this holiday more than any other because every year, the day refreshes my faith as a Christian. There is no greater love than the love Jesus has for everyone on this earth.  The other great thing about Easter is the egg hunting! Egg hunting was definitely more fun this year for Aria then it was last year. She is still carrying her basket full of eggs around the house. As for the triplet pregnancy, I am  22 weeks and feeling good! This weekend we took time out to also work on the house and the nursery. I do great as long as I work in spurts. (Work, rest, repeat...) Aria was a super helper too. She helped Daddy put cribs together and helped Mommy unload tubs of baby girl clothes and shampoo the carpets.  Yes, we were all working in our PJs!  The baby room is just about finished. I am waiting on one more addition befor...
