More mealtime mania

OH NO, what have we done!

Firstly we made the mistake of taking them out of their highchairs & now we can't get them back in them.

Secondly, they keep getting out of their chairs & running around at mealtimes........You can see from the pic here that we have had to start tying them down to their seats with stockings.

Thirdly, we gave them a spoon & their own bowl & look at the mess, its just atrocious.

Our maltese, Lily is loving it. For her it means a change from her once a day mealtime, as she is now fed 3 times a day, with her diet consisting of anything the kids eat (or don't eat)

Up to no good

I guess every parent has their 'naughty' photos on file & beleive me we have plenty of them.

I cant leave them alone for a second & I would have another 'naughty' photo if I wanted to.

We have those 'child safe' latches on our kitchen draws & cupboards but the little blighters have worked out that the drawer doesn't need to open all the way for them to drag the entire contents out on to the floor....Arghhh.

Can you see the little biscuit crumbs all over the floor too. We are constantly opening the drawers only to find in addition to cutlery there are often stale biscuits.

Playtime with Cousin Emma

This one is a cracker. I just love the look on Cousin Emma's face as little Jasmine pushes her around the living room. It's all Oh so serious!

The next photo is Jasmine pushing Josh around the living room. Unfortunately Olivia didn't want to come to the party.

Our Santa photos - This year and last year

Our first visit to Santa Clause was 2005, which was a sucess.....because Josh slept thru it & you can't really tell from the Pic that Olivia was screaming...Jasmine was also fine

So, all pepped up with confidence that it would be as easy in 2006 as it was in 2005 we headed back to see Santa....Ummmm, lets just say it wasn't quite so easy this time around.

Unfortunately, I cant say Christmas this year was wonderfull. All 3 of the triplets were lucky enough to be sick on the day so it was extremely average.

Jasmine & Josh woke up on Christmas morning with raging tonsilitis & Olivia was diagnosed with middle ear infections in both ears on Christmas eve.

With a little help from baby panadol we still managed to get some half decent photos on their new trikes :)

Meal time at the Murrays

Well here it is. We get alot of people asking to see pictures of them in their high chairs. This isn't the greatest picture, but they are still fairly clean which makes it bareable cause I didnt think you would want to see the usual 'bolognaise face' that we deal with each & every day.

I am glad to report that they received their own minature version of a kitchen table which they have just started using at mealtimes...Photos to come.

Our 1st birthday

Their birthday was actually 12 August 2006 but I just thought I might share some images from the 1st birthday party party.

All lined up nicely for our Party Photos.

We also have a cake photo of which there was only 1 of this year since we could get away with it......Can't wait till when we have to make 3 of them :)

I have to say, I am most impressed with the cake I made. I ended up with an entire bottle of blue food colouring in the icing & of course the entire kitchen somehow ended up blue for a week too.

I only wish we had a better photo of all the party guests with their blue smiles after eating the cake. I was fairly sure we had a 'blue tongued' photo of everyone but the colour didn't quite come out in the photo so it isn't worth posting.

Christening day.

Here is the christening cake. Isn't it lovely. I just love this cake so I had to post a pic to share. It was a chocolate orange liquor mud cake & tasted just divine.

We had guests coming from Sydney, Brisbane and the Gold Coast & the weather was suburb.
