Ben's New Pet

Meet Chipper Jones the newest member of the Daniel's Den.  This is Ben's new fish.  The cutest thing about it is hearing Ben say his name.  This fish was allowed in my house under one stipulation: mommy is not responsible for feeding or cleaning up after it because I already have enough boys to clean up after.  I should have insisted on a girl fish...I am so outnumbered here.

A Day in the Life of the Daniel's Den


Ever wonder what your day would be like if you had newborn triplets and a 2 year old?  This video shows a glimpse of what it is like.  Everyday is filled with 7 feedings times 3, 21 bottles, loading and unloading the dishwasher two times a day, making formula and preparing bottles, approximately 25 diaper changes, laundry, laundry, and more laundry. But, we wouldn't trade it for the world....

One Month

Can it be that my babies are already a month old?  I hate how children seem to grow up so quickly.  I want to keep them as little as long as possible.  We have enjoyed the last month, even with the lack of sleep and amount of work it takes to care for our children. It has been an adventure and I'm sure it will continue to be....

Each month we will be post their pictures to show how they have grown.  Their individual pictures are taken with the stuffed animals that big brother Ben gave them the first time he met each one.

Just the 6 of Us...

Saturday was the first day our family had been at home, just the six of us, with no outside help.  We misssed the extra help, but enjoyed having the special family time and our house to ourselves.  It was a beautiful day and we took advantage of the weather and spent the day outside.  The babies especially seemed to enjoy the weather.  While Ben was taking a nap, Derek and I took the opportunity to take pictures of the babies outside.  It was a lot of fun!  Below are some of the pictures we took.

Sweet Babies! Ryan, Chase, Tyler.
