We had a pretty busy weekend. The post below was just from Saturday’s festivities. We walked 5 miles for March of Dimes (okay, 2 miles) and went to a baseball game on Saturday, and you would think that would be enough for one weekend. But, Sunday we had plans to meet up with lots of babies! We took a multiples birthing class when I was pregnant back in July (I think). There were two other couples in our class: one couple pregnant with twin girls and one couple pregnant with triplets (2 boys and 1 girl). We were all at different stages in our pregnancy, but ironically, all the babies were born within weeks of each other. So, on Sunday we had a reunion of sorts at the Arboretum. It was lots of fun! A & B got to meet Payten & Lainey (twins) and William, Jackson, and Addison for the first time! It was funny to see people’s reaction to us! Now, we get lots of attention when we are out and about as it is, but add another set of twins and then some triplets, and it just blows people’s minds. Pretty funny! So, we took our blankets and hung out in the grass admiring all the flowers and the gorgeous weather and of course all 7 babies! We really drew a crowd when we decided to put all 7 babies on one blanket to take pictures. Needless to say, it’s really hard to get 7 babies to stay still long enough for a picture! We are definitely going to get together at least once or twice a year with all the babies – it was really lots of fun! Here are some pictures from the day:
Twins in the back (Payten, Lainey, B & A), triplets in front (Jackson, Addison, William). They kept rolling all over each other! And poor William in the front on the right - A & B kept kicking him in the head.
We took lots of pictures, but there really aren't any where you can see every babies' faces.
The triplet bus!
Little Jackson with his daddy, Al. How cute is that little face!
Here we come! Move over everyone - 7 babies coming through!
Yep, that's me being a butterfly.
You can see how enthused the girls are at this point!

That's great! How fun! I can see it now. What an adventure. I'm glad ya'll have some other families of multiples that ya'll can hang out with. :) Great pics...and I know all too well about getting so many babies to stay still, much less all smile at the same time for pictures. I think that's why we rarely are able to get pictures of all four of the quads together, much less all five kids in the same shot. Fun times! Thinking about you guys! Take care!
