a break

Yes, it's true!

Saturday, Meme and Papa watched all 3 of our little loves. They had actually wanted to see them for a while now and I didn't want to take them shopping so, we packed them up and took them over for a couple of hours- that turned into 6! Ricky and I went to lunch, talked about how weird it was to not have the kids, looked in the backseat of the car 100X, dropped off his eye glasses, and went to Walmart. Ricky actually said he felt naked because we didn't have the kids. It was so weird to not have the stroller, people staring, the comments, people following us- it was nice! We were normal, everyday people!
2.5 hours and $300 later, we had groceries. Well, the trip was actually suppose to be grocery shopping for Ricky and I food since we had not actually done that in about 3 months, but as we got home and put it all away, we realized it was mostly for the babies! Oh and let us not forget that we bought 10-12 set of pj's for the kids! We can't help it- we really LIKE our kids alot ;)
The kids were good at Meme's and everyone there was exhausted ;) So funny!
Today, Christina and I had a "girl's day" and will have 1-2 a month from now on. We had so much fun. We started off by getting a pedicure. 20 purple toes later, we went to lunch, then Target, TJ Maxx, Home Goods, Charming Charlie, 99 cent store, and Cold Stone Creamery! We were worn out! This heat is horrible! The funny thing is we didn't buy anything for ourselves.
It's been a really fun week for me. With the church event, a "date night" with my best friend Michelle (who is also the babies' God Mother), a break from the babies on Saturday, and then a day with my Bestie Christina- I feel spoiled :)

The babies are passed out. Brody and Gracie in their cribs and Madi is over course in our bed- as usual. I just want to know, when did my kids get so big? They are all in big boy and big girl jammies. No one asked me if my babies could become toddlers.

Madi has her top two front teeth coming in but I was very shocked to find the top one beside the right front has also already broke the gum- she has 3 teeth coming in at once!
They all ate Cheetos for the first time today along with chocolate pudding! Their weigh in on Friday was not good since they've been sick so we've really got to put the weight on them and yes, we were told to get junk food to do it.

We have such a busy week. What is new, right? Wednesday we have 3 appointments back to back. 2 are  in the same building but one is a little drive. It is 90- nothing around here! Oh well, it keeps me busy and keeps my babies growing stronger!

Have a great week!!
