Well I know I have told some of you about how I was going to submit the beans pictures to a talent/modeling agency out here. I actually did it and today we got a letter back saying they set up an appointment for July 8th...A few months ago a lady in the mall had approached me and told me how cute my babies were and that I should put them in modeling. I explained to her my concerns about all the scams and since I am not familiar with the industry I dont want to do anything that could jeopardize my children or put out any money to get them started. The lady told me who to contact and that she had used this agency for her son who actually appeared in Stuart Little years ago. After about 2 months I decided why not give it a try and we sent the pics in. Aww my lil beans are on their way to being famous :)
Teething update-those little buggers most have plotted against me last night because they slept straight through the night and woke up at 7am. All I can say is I Told You So!!!
Paige-I got your email and I just didn't get a chance to respond yet but I actually tried humprys and hylands brand tablets they worked for the first week or so and now they don't work.

Karl is almost on the move!!
Yesterday I was doing tummy time with the beans and I see Karl up on all 4's rocking away. Well I guess it won't be long before he decides to crawl. Arianna and Gabriella are showing no signs of crawling or even wanting to for that matter.
On to the teething situation-can you say mommy is sleep deprived??? I tried giving them tylenol and oragel before bed that didn't work so the next night I tried mortin and oragel that didnt work either. During the day I am finding them to be very clingy, cranky and just over all needy. I tried to take a few pics of the their little teeth popping up but its still so small you cant see them in pics yet. Tomorrow Marc is off from work so that means it's his turn to get up with the babies...lets see if they keep him up all night. Do you know they usually sleep in late and dont wake up in the middle of the night on his days..I don't understand i guess they like to make me look like a liar. I swear they chat with each other and plot this before bedtime on Daddy's days off.
I am getting kinda nervous next week I will be taking my first road trip with them to Pop-pop's in PA. It's about 4 hours away from me and Marc has to work. Aunt Dot is going to come with me in the car to help in case I have to stop for feedings or diaper changes. If any experienced mommy's are reading this please I can use any advice or tips you can offer on getting through this trip. I was going to leave after I give them a bedtime bottle so they can sleep in the car..problem is when we get to PA they are going to wake up and I am afraid they won't go back to bed. So then I was thinking maybe I should drive during the day but what if they are cranky and screaming the entire ride? I am going to take 3 pack-n-plays so they each have their own space to sleep because I have never put them in my bed. I am not leaving until wed or thurs so I have 1 week to figure it out. Wish me luck!!

I Can See Teeth!!!!
Karl has 2 teeth popping up and Gabriella has 1!!!! So exciting yet stressful for mommy. The babies have not been sleeping for about a week. I am pretty much in teething HELL. The babies have been chatting up a storm lately. Its so cute when we are in the car and i hear Arianna chatting away and then Karl and Gabriella putting in their 2 sense. Boy I would love to know what they are saying. The beans are also starting to sit up for a minute or two without any help.
Okay so once again I am slacking on updating everyone I know its been over a week. First and foremost we met Danielle last week for lunch. It was the first time she got to meet the beans and crazy Danni got up in the cheesecake factory and danced with them..ummmm yes she did!! Dont worry the kids loved it and it kept them quiet. Danni it was great seeing you, thanks for lunch and the cute outfits!!!!!! We gotta get together more often but hey isnt that my famous line to everyone?
Sunday was Fathers Day and we decided to spend it with Randi, Harold, Kayla and Karlie at the Liberty Science Center. I was soooo bored but hey I hate that kinda stuff I am all about the beach, the zoo, parks, aquariums, etc not museums or science centers. Marc enjoyed it so mission was accomplished since it was his day anyway. My mom and grandfather came up sunday night so Marc and I could go out to dinner. I actually had a drink at dinner that knocked me on my butt!! I am such a lightweight tooo bad my scale doesn't think so. The rest of the week flew by I dont recall what we did but I will tell you the kids pretty much cried 24-7 this past week. After seeing the teeth coming up it explains all the crying. This weekend we had a BBQ with my family saturday and then today we went to my mother in laws for dinner. I am going to try to take pics tomorrow of the kids teeth coming up. Well thats about it for now......

Doctors Visit
Yesterday we went for our 7 month well visit. The poor babies had to get shots but Dr George said everyone is doing great.
Arianna is 14lbs 7 oz 25 inches long
Karl is 15 bs 7 oz 26 inches long
Gabriella 16lbs 4 oz 26 inches long
The babies are only in the 10-15 percentile for weight and 25th percentile for height. Dr George told us not to worry because if you back out the 6 weeks that they were born early they are on target for their adjusted age. I also got okay to feed them pretty much whatever we want but not to much dairy products. I have been giving them homemade baby food so it looks like they will be eating pretty much whatever we have for dinner providing its healthy.
We have a very busy weekend planned so I will update everyone as soon as I get a chance.

7 Months Today!!
I can't believe my beans are 7 months already. I guess I should be excited but I was so upset they are growing so quick before I know it they will be starting Kindergarten ;( We had a very busy weekend and its been in the 90's, humid, hot, and just yucky..Yesterday we had Jills baby shower it was a pool party. My mom was also invited which was a good thing because she helped me out with the kids and I was able to take them in the big pool for the first time. Karl loved it! He looked like a little frog kicking his little feet all around and going crazy, Gabriella just hung out in her little blow up toy and Arianna the one who loved to splash away in the bath cried bloody murder.
Today we took the kids to the zoo for the first time. We went around 4pm thinking it would cool down by then but heck no it was still so hot. We spent most of the time looking at the inside exhibits since they were air conditioned. Marcs friend Aly and her friend Robin came with us which was nice because they helped us with the kids and we used a double and single stroller we only got stopped 1 time by the "paparazzi". The beans didnt seem to interested in the animals I put Arianna and Gabriella right up to the glass window of the monkey exhibit and Arianna was too busy eating her strap on her stroller and Gabriella was busy drinking her bottle so neither of them noticed the monkeys. I was able to take a few pictures I will post them soon.
Okay I know I am skipping around but I figured I should give you all some info on the beans..
Arianna
Loves playing and eating her feet, smiling, laughing loudly while getting changed, baths, rolling all over the place, sleeping late in the mornings, teething cookies and getting lots of attention
Hates taking naps, eating green beans, peas and the big pool
Karl
Loves trying to pet the dogs, playing in his exersaucer, breaking out of his car seat or anything that I put him in for that matter, flirting with all the ladies, swimming in the pool, chewing on his feet, eating, drinking from a big boy cup and watching TV
Hates sitting still in the car (red lights, traffic, etc), getting his nose cleaned/sucked out, sharing mommy and daddy's lap with his sisters
Gabriella
Loves her Daddy, eating teething cookies, drinking from a big girl cup, sitting in her swing, playing with her feet, drinking from a straw, likes to cry 24/7, play airplane with Daddy
Hates playing on the floor alone, smiling, eating veggies, pacifiers,

We Have 3 Rollers!!!!
The BIG news of the week is Gabriella is finally rolling over!!!!!!! I was kinda secretly thinking something was wrong with her. Arianna has been rolling for over 2 months and Karl started rolling at least a month ago and my Gabriella showed no signs or interest. Let me tell you my Gabby held her cookie first and feed herself also she can drink out of a straw which the other beans cant do but something that required effort like roll over..umm nope she wouldn't even think of doing. I think she is going to take after me. So today we went to my mother in laws for dinner and I had all the kids on a blanket on the floor and she just rolled right over....woohoo!!!! So thats about it we didn't do much today so nothing else exciting went on.
