Twice as Nice: our life with twins, plus one more!: Fort Vancouver
http://benjamiemorris.blogspot.com/2015/05/fort-vancouver.html
Thursday, May 21, 2015. A quick note: I'm planning on taking a break from facebook, so if you want to know when I write a new blog post, please sign up for email notification. So Ben and I got this crazy idea for our errand day this weekend: shop some, do something fun, shop some more. And it worked! The fort entrance. That long stick is the well, and the white building is the bakery. They had really cool wood fire ovens to see. The boys checking out the outhouse. The boys got to watch them stoke the fi...

Twice as Nice: our life with twins, plus one more!: March 2015

Thursday, March 19, 2015. He's not a great independent player inside, mostly because all he wants to do is color or brush his teeth; however, outside he's a champ. He's content for hours and wants to go outside first thing in the morning. Dirt, sand, balls, water, tools.he's definitely all boy. Grossest moment of the month: discovering him stealing half-eaten ice cubes from our puppy and sticking them in own mouth. Disgusting! He learned how to put hats (or boxes) on this month. Tuesday, March 3, 2015.

Twice as Nice: our life with twins, plus one more!: February 2014

Friday, February 28, 2014. Started sitting up a couple of weeks ago. It’s wonderful and has helped with his spitting up immensely! We cut out his 10 pm dream feed last weekend. Ah, finally! It’s so nice to feed him at around 8 and then put him down for the rest of the night. He sleeps through the night until 7:30 the next morning. (He sometimes needs a binky around 6:30, or a couple times in the night, but I have no complaints! But sometimes, it’s still 45 minutes—not so magical. I’ve also hit the ...

Thursday, August 14, 2014. A couple weekends ago we were blessed by very special visitors whom we hadn’t gotten to share our new home with! My sister, her hubby and her youngest, Edmund came out for dinner. Josh and Edmund (4 months apart) were kind of enamored with one another:. The good news was that Josh didn’t cry every time that Edmund walked near him (like their previous meeting)! It was so good to see my sister, and we’re thrilled as they have moved back to the Willamette Valley! And finally, Kati...

Twice as Nice: our life with twins, plus one more!: Birthday at the Beach
http://benjamiemorris.blogspot.com/2015/04/birthday-at-beach.html
Friday, April 17, 2015. Birthday at the Beach. Be ready for an absolute picture overload. I'll use few words to make up for the picture mayhem. Last weekend our Ruda family spent the weekend at the most gorgeous house in Newport to celebrate my dad's 60th birthday. We weekend was wonderful! The table fit all of us! We ate some good meals together! Art time with Grandma. Great picture of Sammy and Seth (at least I got a natural smile out of one of them.). It was hilarious to watch! Papa pitying poor Joshy.

Friday, May 30, 2014. Seth and Sam: 5 Years Old. Well, it happened. My little 4 pound, premature babies, who’s heads could fit in the palm of my hand, turned FIVE. Yes, five. No longer babies, toddlers or even preschoolers, but school-aged, reading, shoe-tying five-year-olds. I’m in a bit of denial. And One Fish, Two Fish. They seem to be competitive, but not as much as I expected (being that their parents are perhaps a little. What other conspiracies are they going to be up to? They still love legos, bu...

Friday, April 24, 2015. Today has been a DAY. Messy house, messy kids. Disastrous painting activity. Screaming toddler who now knows how to say, "My turn! Days like this I like to grab my coffee and look through pictures of the past few months. Because I mostly take pictures of the roses, and it's nice to remember how sweet they smelled! This kid. Too big pants and shirt. And the random croc. Life. And look at that hair! That's why I was trying to give him a haircut! Sam top, Seth bottom). Last weekend o...

Saturday, February 7, 2015. A Break in the Rain. You can tell that you live in the Willamette Valley when there is a break in the rain and your reaction is, "BOYS! Get your hats and coats on! That's seriously what I am like. I'm so desperate for my children to be able to get fresh air and get those wiggles out. The last few days here have been REALLY rainy.like huge puddles in the yard, creeks in the drainage ditches rainy. But, yesterday, right as Ben got home early from work, we got a break! A Break in...

Monday, October 27, 2014. That's it, Pacific Northwest, I'm done with pumpkin patches. Next year, I'm boycotting and simply growing my own. AND I couldn't even get a decent picture of the three boys. Josh wouldn't cooperate. But that wasn't all. I'm tired of every little ride or hay maze costing a ridiculous amount of money. What happened to the good ol' fashioned free hay truck ride? And why didn't I think to bring Josh a change of clothes? Fail group picture #1 (taken in lame maze that costs $2/child).
