What has happened in the last couple weeks?

Well, we had Eli's blessing this past weekend. It was nice to see so many family member that we do not get to see often. It was a wonderful day and we could not have asked for anything better. (I have pictures but I took them with my brother's camera so I am waiting for him to send them to me. Hint, hint Brad! :)

Matthew has been having chest pains off and on. The first time he had them he thought that he was having a heart attack. The doctor told him that it was normal after and ablation to have them. He was having them again this morning and the doctor told him to go to St. Frances and get an X-Ray. We haven't heard anything yet from the doctor but Matthew said that from what he gathered it wasn't that big of a deal. They were just checking his lungs. He doesn't really know but we will hear from the doctor later on today.

Eli has been doing much better during the day. He is not screaming all day long. He still gets up during the night. It depends on the night but I am feeding him about 3 times during the night and comforting him the other times. He has good night an bad.

I went to Walmart on Tuesday. It started out okay. It always takes me FOREVER to get out the door. The girls are so slow. I think if I could hold their hand through our daily routine: eat, brush teeth, get dressed, make their bed, etc. that they would get done much faster but I feel like they have to learn at some point. Five years old is old enough, right? Anyway, at about 11:30 am we finally got out the door. I put Eli in the front back pack, Jake in the cart and the girls held on to each side of the chart and headed for the doors. I got lots of different looks (like I always do when we go out in public) and comments..."oh, how cute." "bless her heart." "you sure have your hands full." "look that that lady." and my favorite, "are they twins?" (I want to look at them and say, are you really asking me that question. No they are triplets! I mean come on. They look just alike and are the same height and weight. For some reason I find this question VERY annoying. They first 3 years of it I thought it was funny but now, just annoying. I know I sound like a rude person, I really am not.) Once we got in the door the girls went crazy. You would think that they hadn't eaten in a week. They wanted to buy everything they saw and started filling the cart. For about 30 minutes I tried to limit the items they stuck in the cart. Jake started feeling left out and wanted to hold the grape juice I just had pulled off the shelf. I handed it too him. While I turned my back to stop the girls from fighting Jake threw the bottle of juice on the floor. It busted open everywhere. I resisted my desire to scream loudly and headed to the checkout after telling an employee I was sorry but my son busted a bottle of juice on the floor. He didn't believe just how truly sorry I was, he rolled his eyes and just looked at me. What an afternoon! I started laughing when I got to the car.

I went to target to take back some clothes that I had bought to try and tide me over until I can fit in my old ones. Right as we walk away from the return counter Kennedy turns to me and says in a loud voice, "Mom, that lady sure has A LOT of milk in her chest!" I didn't even turn around to see if the lady heard her. I just headed to the diapers!

Jacob is talking like crazy. He keeps us laughing at the sentences that come out of his mouth.

Well, that about wraps up the Moffitt adventures...for right now
