Your girls are so beautiful Erika!! Absolutely gorgeous. I can't get enough of that sweet baby. I can smell the baby powder from here! I hear ya on the craziness when you have three and a husband who is gone most of the time. It is HARD. I showered tonight after kids were in bed and I seriously think it had been five days since I last washed my hair (not admitting that to anyone but you!). I'd love to tell you it gets easier but now that Kole is on the go it feels harder in some ways. At least we have each other - someone who understands! Good thing our babies are so worth it. :)

BTW - I had to laugh at the post before this. Kenny and I ALWAYS end up at Target after our Saturday night dinner dates!!

oh yes, Hoarders is a great cleaning motivator. lol My BIL was on Animal Hoarders for snakes! It made a difference for him though.

Great that Violet had such a good check. she's really cute and adorable.
With our girls, bedtimes were quite early, but then they were up about 6.30 in the morning! So you either get late mornings or early nights, I think!
Hope you have a lovely Valentine's Day!

You know, people probably give her tons of attention in public because she is so stunning. I hope you are feeling better. Wow, 8:45? That is sooooooo early for you guys. <3

Your cove is a beautiful place. Glad you had that good day and that you didn't know mastitis was on its way; it a terrible dose, and exhausting. I found, back in the day, that resting and nursing (constantly!) was the only way out of it, but also developed an awareness that it struck when I was tired and busy (which also meant maybe I had delayed to nurse, then plugged ducts etc).
Anyway, hope you're much better now.
Paprika in her finery is fab! She's getting so grown up!

Isn't Violet such a sweet baby with a sweet little smile?
Don't know how you do it Erika, on your own with three kids. You're doing a great job there.

As hard as it must be to be on your own with your hubby out of town, it's so great that you two are able to bond! She is precious! Time flies too quickly... my girl will be 3 months old on Valentine's Day!

2012-02-09T16:19:59.866-08:00

I thought you just posted she was 2 months. Where is the time going? She's so pretty... I see resemblances to her sisters, but she has her own little look. <3 Love to you gals!

2012-02-07T10:32:12.640-08:00

I found your blog through another angel mama. It's amazing how we all connect together. I lost my twin boys last November from complications of TRAP sequence (a rare form of twin to twin transfusion syndrome). I'm so sorry that you lost your precious girls. I haven't read very much of your blog, but I hope it's ok that I wandered over here. I couldn't help commenting when I read their story. Losing my boys is the hardest thing I have ever endured (at least I've endured for the past two months) and I just wanted to say that I'm sorry. <3

2012-02-06T20:59:47.084-08:00

I can't believe how much Paprika and Ginger look alike in the first picture! I think Violet is a perfect mix of both of them...cuties!

2012-02-06T14:23:55.539-08:00

I'm so glad that you guys are able to go out and have a date. It's so important for every married couple, even if it means spending a little extra $! Now that we have no family around, we are having to get sitters. We use the teachers from C's school. That museum looks really cool.

Love all the pictures! The cove looks so beautiful...

I haven't been to your cove, but love it as well. Hang in there... each day without Mr. M is one less day he'll be away and you have to deal with it all.

2012-01-31T04:23:08.909-08:00

E, you look great, and Oobly Woobly is so incredibly cute. I love all the love you guys share for each other and spread around.

2012-01-28T17:54:10.750-08:00

She's gorgeous!
Do you mean she will be 3 months in two weeks time, or 2 months? I think 3 if she's 11 weeks?
You look fantastic in these pics, but already quite thin, hope you've not been sick.
It's so sweet that Ginger loves her little sis so much, as does Paprika. They're both great older sisters!

I know I don't comment much, but I do enjoy your posts immensely. I was looking for some fun crafting ideas to do with the kids and came across the picture of hanging jelly fish in this post... http://www.modernparentsmessykids.com/2012/01/personalized-alphabet-book.html#comment-form

she is gorgeous, but then all of your daughters are gorgeous, so it is no surprise :-)
I am reading you from Hungary, and I love your blog. it is so stunning that mothers (almost) all around the world sort of have the same problems, feelings, things to solve, and it is so interesting to read about how others around the globe do this family thing. I also have 3 kids, 2 boys (13 and 10), and one little princess aged 7. she has some developmental problems, but doing better and better all the time due to lots of special classes.
congrats on your lovely daughters!
