Its that time of year again. Its not even Halloween, Thanksgiving hasn't rolled around and yet its already time for Christmas. :) For family members here are the boys christmas lists for 2012.

Xavier: wreck it ralph the movie, cool posters to cover the walls in his room. games for his ds and ps2. A ferby. Any cool new toys a 6yr old boy would like. Books because he's learning to read and spell in kindergarten. hes into star wars, super heros, baseball, ninja/fighting games and Movies.

Ethan: spring/summer clothes 2t & 3t, a foward facing high back harnessed booster seat that fits 30lb+ and 34in+, leapster, developmental toys, Books. iseeme.com has awesome personalized books! Size 7.5 WIDE shoes. He's super into Thomas the tank, dragon tails, yo gabba gabba, and Disney movies. Quiet play activities. Some of those pop up tents with tunnels. A small fischer price slide for inside. Fischer price kit kitchen or work bench, he likes daddy's tools and mommys pots and pans already. A couch that pulls into a nap cot from toys r us.

Both: Sippy cups all stages, baby plates, little kid forks and spoons, little kids character table and chairs for all three. snappis for their diapers. A corner net for their toys. bamboo and microfiber pocket diaper inserts and doublers, one size alva baby (www.alvababy.com) and one size kawaii pocket good night heavy wetter and kawaii minky bamboo diapers (www.theluvyourbaby.com), any brand hemp inserts, any brand bamboo inserts. We need about 30 pocket diapers to do all the boys daily and we have 10 so far :) so right now were doing disposable over night from 8p-8a but would love to be able to CD all day!

Twins: soothers/noise machines for their cribs, HALO sleep sacks, activity table. Wool, knit/crocheted, or fleece soakers or longies. Boy legs warmers for this spring to wear with their designed cloth diapers :)


The TWINS DO NOT NEED CLOTHES. after hand me downs from Ethan, Myles, donations from friends, they have more then they need and I am going to consign some. Thanks anyway :)

:) Ethan "held" Gavin today with lots of help from mommy like a big boy. He was so excited and talking in his little ear. Just babbling gibberish but he looks so serious when he does!

Lately it's been pretty slow around the apartment. Lack of sleep and motivation to clean and the high demand of these three little beans is about it.

The boys were all just signed up for early intervention. They will see a nutritionist once a month for weight checks. I guess they are supposed to be gaining .7-1oz a day and they're only gaining .46 so we have to add more formula fortified breastmilk bottles and less nursing for now :( burning too many calories and not gaining fast enough.

Ethan now has 7 teeth :) the past couple of weeks he's sprouted his four top teeth and a molar! So he's had a small fever and a huge case of the grumps! He is climbing and into absolutely everything. I'm short of bungee cording the chairs to the table so he can't scoot them around! Our terrible 2's came at 14months with the twins.


Since having the twins we have had quite a few churches, local, and state organizations have donated little things to the boys :) quilts, prayer blankets, diapers, wipes, a winter coats for all three boys, nice brand new clothes. I would just like to say thank you to everyone else who has helped as well! Family and friends. Thank you so much for everything! We've needed it!

Today we got the first part of our diaper stash :) we had 7 covers and 28 brand new prefolds from econobums by coton babies today! I'll post a pic. It just hit me about how many diapers we were contributing by doing disposable on three babies. Yes it's a convenience but with me staying home full time cloth is definitely the smarter route to go!

Anyways here are some pictures :)
