Thanksgiving in Myrtle Beach

We made our way to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina for our 7th annual Camenga Family Thanksgiving Vacation (strangely enough, only 10 of the 21 people there have the last name Camenga). Our week consisted of a trip to a State Park, Ripley's Aquarium, a local garden/zoo, and, of course, way too much eating. It was a good week all around. Now, we just have to figure out where we'll go next year. So, on with the lengthy photo parade.

Here's Cate on the beach...

...and Eve...

...and Jonah.

At least we found a nice place for a family photo down that path.

Eve's Visit to the Pediatric Opthalmologist

On the night after Our Babies Three were born, Eve was put on oxygen to help with her O2 saturation. She was on the oxygen for less than 24 hours, but the neonatologist recommended that she be seen by an opthalmologist periodically for a couple of years. So, at 2 years and 3+ months, Eve has had her third (and perhaps last) visit to have her pupils dilated and her ability to move around a room without

tripping over nothing in particular temporarily suspended.

Thus, the photos below with the ridiculously chic Hater Blockers.

Here is Eve demonstrating "Full Pout."

Here is Cate ensuring that her shades are securely in place.

Here is Jonah tolerating my interruption of his Lego time.

Which Baby Built It?

And now it is time for everyone's favorite game..."WHICH BABY BUILT IT?"

The possible answers are limited (Either Cate, Eve, or Jonah) and each answer is used only once. We can discuss later what each structure says about the psyche of the builder; but for now, it is time to play "WHICH BABY BUILT IT?"

1) Which baby?

2) Which baby?

3) Which baby?

The answers are just below so...no cheating!

So, it has been about a month and...

...not much has happened. Life continues as usual with stay-at-home Daddy and work-at-school Mommy, school, family, church, weekends in Belpre-Salem-Belpre and all of the other little things that act as the Jell-O in our smörgåsbord of life. Despite life being what it is, we have had a few chances to snap some photos and, as you can see, Our Babies Three are as cute as ever and getting bigger and bigger.

Here's Cate enjoying an episode of Backyardigans

Here's Eve just enjoying life

Here's Jonah being Jonah

Here they are all trying to figure out how they can all fit in a one seater

They really do love each other

So, it's been a while since the last post...

So, it has been quite a while since our last post, and all I can attribute that to is the post-Summer daze. We did a lot of traveling this Summer (more than any Summer for us pre-triplets). With that said (and my excuse now made) I now give you a few photos from our DSi. But don't worry, what the photos lack in quality they more than make up for in poor composition so...enjoy.

Here are the kids showing Daddy the appropriate position of the eyelids during a photo session.

Here they are enjoying their table...puzzles, books, and whatever else can be carried.
