Little Gymnasts

We were lucky enough to be invited to a private gymnastics class last week. I was so excited to take the kiddos because they are such monkeys. I knew they would enjoy something like this. Caroline, our wonderful friend, came with us. Thank goodness! Each baby ended up needing a helper. I couldn't have done it alone. My camera was on a wierd setting and I didn't figure it out until days later so a lot of these pictures are really poor quality.

Michael giving Anthony the eyeball, I think he's really encouraging him along.

Anthony and Jaileigh. Jaileigh was not a happy camper. She was teething a molar and did not feel good. This look pretty much sums up her day.

I think Caroline had fun too! Here she is helping Anthony on the trampoline.

Jakob is my shy boy. This is how he spent the first 5-10 minutes-SAD and SHY. Ms Sharon is helping him.

Then he changed his mind when he got to the trampoline. He got the biggest grin on his face and took off running just as fast as his little legs could carry him, leaving Ms Sharon in the dust. She had to run after him he was so fast. After this he had a blast.

The boys- Jakob, Michael, and Anthony

Jakob and Anthony. Anthony has a look of pure happiness on his face.

Caroline helping Anthony roll down and I think Michaels helper helped him to flip down. Michael loved his helper. When it was time to go he wouldn't let go of her hand. He grabbed my hand and held on to hers too.

The last activity they got to do was the foam pit. It was a huge pit with a trampoline on the bottom and foam squares filling it. The babies thought this was so fun. They even jumped off the side into it like it was a swimming pool. Here are the boys- Michael (you can only see his head), Anthony, and Jakob

Jakob- bad picture but you can see how happy he is

Anthony

Jaileigh even enjoyed the pit

Michael- on the left. He jumped in to the guy in the red shirt

Anthony- out of the pit on the mat

Quad Playdate Pictures

We had a play date at the park with two sets of our quad friends on Saturday and on Sunday a set of our quad friends and our triplet friends came over for dinner. Here is a picture overload of Saturday. Sunday Mike was in charge of pictures and we got a total of THREE! So. . . . we will have to redo Sunday again someday.


Michael always ready for a picture.

Jaileigh with her little teeny tiny itsy bitsy pony tail. Mike was a little embarrassed that I put pants on under her dress but it was a little chilly out. I think its cute.

Peyton leading the boys back to the quad camp. Peyton is a big brother to our quad friends from right here in California. Jakob loves him and follows him around like a little puppy.

Fellow quad mom Stephanie and her beautiful babies. She has the exact opposite of us- 3 girls and a boy plus Peyton. Jaileigh loved the babies. She sat next to them for a long time and made sure they all had pacifiers or toys. She is usually such a stinker!

Anthony taking a break

Can you find all the quaddies? There are 9 in this picture.

Anthony, Jakob, and Sky (?). I am hoping that Anthony was sharing and not stealing.

Stephanies beautiful 4 month old quaddies. They were the youngest of the 3 sets.

Peyton and Jaileigh

Aurelia is telling Stephanie a story.  Dafna and Eli have 15 month quads, 3 boys and 1 princess just like us. They were visiting from Nevada. We were so glad they stopped to visit us. It was so fun to meet another quad family.

Peyton is surrounded by my little ones who think he is the neatest!

Getting ready for a group shot. Eli and his 4, Amber and my 4, Stephanie with her 5. You can see that Jaileigh is showing her true colors. Yes, Anthony has a sprite bottle. No, I don't let them drink soda. Bottles make the best toys! They can entertain for hours.

What a perfect picture! Dafna and her four, Mike and I and our four, and Stephanie and her five

Attempting a shot with the momma's

When Dafna and Eli were ready to go they were loading their stroller and 2 of mine decided to climb aboard. Michael and Jakob must like their stroller better than ours OR they like whats inside the stroller. Hmmmm.

Here are the three pictures from our Quad-Quad-Triplet date.

Jakob and Jaileigh playing with Alison, the triplets big sister.

We Love To Brush Our Teeth!

Thank goodness for me! I can't imagine trying to chase 4 toddler to try and brush their teeth. They love to do it and they will even remind me if I forget.
