Spring blooms at the Arboretum


Craig and I took the babies to the Dallas Arboretum yesterday. I had gone a couple of times last Fall but the babies were so young, they didn't really get to experience it much. This time, we unloaded and let them run around some in an open grassy area. They chased the birds, squirrels and picked a few flowers (oops).

Tyler and Whitney playing together in the stroller.


Hannah is exploring away.
Whitney not happy that I sat her down.
Hannah is not scared. Checking out the flowers.
Checking out more flowers.
Tyler found a stick.
What'cha looking at Tyler? So funny!
Mommy and her litter!
This squirrel looks like it was nibbling in Whitney's ear.
Tyler having a ball running everywhere.
Checking out the water fall.
Getting a little hot but still all smiles.
They were SO tired, Whitney started leaning into the side of the stroller and her eyes were drifting; Hannah was sucking her finger.

We also ran into another couple with triplets. As we approached each other, we noticed they had triplets and vice versa. It only took a second to realize we actually know them! They were a couple that we took the hospital CPR/birthing classes with. What a nice couple they are! It was so nice to talk to them again. The last time we saw them was in the NICU. She delivered her babies (two boys and one girl) a week before me, also at 34 weeks, and we both delivered about 14 pounds of baby! I just love running into other MOM's (mom's of multiples), especially mom's of HOM's (high order multiples). We share a connection like no other!!

Look at how big and tall their trio is compared to ours and they are only a week older than my crew.

Great pictures, Amy! I LOVE the one of Tyler chewing on Whitney's foot.

What a fun outing! And it looks like it was a beautiful sight too. That's really fun about the other triplets!
