#150...a reflection...

What better way to end the year than with my 150th post. I was asked if I was going to do something special for the 150th since I made such a deal about it. I was asked that prior to the hectic week we had last week. I had thought about doing something fun like the top 150 reason I love being a mom or a top 150 list of some sort. Late last week I was worried I would not make it to 150. So this post is no different than any of the others...it comes from the heart. A reflection or more like the year in review.
Let me start out by saying this year has been AMAZING! Thanks to having the blog I can look back at where we started, what we have gone thru and where we ended up. Thank goodness for technology (for MANY reasons!).
January was the slowest month for posts, only 4...I cannot believe it! But it was still a big month for the kids as they lost their gummy smiles and traded them in for toothy grins. A small milestone, but a milestone none the less. They continued to work on crawling and pulling up in hopes to walk some day.
Then February came. We started it out with, at that time a huge milestone, turning one year old. Oh the fun I had with planning and making that day special for the kids. Although it was fun it still pulled at my heart. This month was also big for them getting off of formula (yippy) and feeding themselves. We also gained a walker this month. Getting more independant every day.
March was a quiet month. We gain yet another walker. More steps to not needing mommy's help as much.
April marked the first getaway for us. It also marked the end of an era...the crawling era as we now had all three walking. It was also our first rummage sale for kids stuff, which was very successful.
May had many things...first actual walk, first coloring, an addition to the family, my 2nd Mother's Day and civilized eating. More and more step to becoming full blown toddlers.
June was filled with fun but tears too. We saw our first parade and went on our first family vacation. Our hearts were torn in half when we had to put our beloved dog Baylee down.
July is when summer is in full swing...we swam, went to the beach, had a wonderful playyard built, went to our first county fair and they got their very own brooms.
August was spent mostly enjoying the playyard and swimming. We did venture out in public with the triplet stroller for the farmer's market. August also marks the splitting of the kids into separate rooms. A lot of work but I accomplished a dream room for our little girl.
September was filled with time with family...Nana, Papa, Great Grandpa Pluemer, Great Grandma Lenzendorf and cousin Alexis. We also accomplished our first fingerpainting as well as a second rummage sale. We also took another step towards growing up...we went to one nap a day. Mommy and Daddy did get some free time to celebrate the 105th birthday for Harley Davidson with a beautiful day ride.
October marked the introduction of potty chairs as well as their first outdoor pet...black and brown catapillars. October was huge for the boys as they had finally enough hair to get their first haircuts. We also played in the fallen leaves a lot. We also participated in our first trick or treat.
November we took a trip back to the NICU and impressed our nurses and doctors. We also moved on to eating cereal and soup with a spoon. We witnessed a first snow fall and got to go outside in it to play. We also got a great playhouse that is loved very much.
December was a month that seemed to fly by. We met Santa for the first time. We took our first bubble bath. We dealt with the flu and a death. We tried hard to behave with the Christmas tree. And we celebrated our 2nd Christmas as a family.
So it was a great year and we look forward to see what 2009 brings us. Happy New Years to everyone! Thanks for reading and keeping up with us.
Love, Jen
This picture was taken last night right before bedtime...can you tell the kids are tired, not to mention mommy too!
This picture was taken this morning. The kids have loved having Jeremy home and you can tell, can't ya?

Merry Christmas!!!

Merry Christmas to everyone! The kids open presents from Santa this morning. Here are some of the generous things Santa got them...a doll center, which includes a swing, bassinet and highchair for baby, a talking grill, which means they can grill just like daddy (but his grill does not talk), 3 large dump trucks, a set of fake food, which included a cookie jar, ice cream and cupcakes, new slippers, a couple books, flash cards and best of all new flip cell phones! They are enjoying all the new toys. Here are 5 picture of the many I took. They had fun unwrapping everything.
Love, Jen

What a week!

This week started out horrible!
Jeremy got back from his trip home Sunday early afternoon. My mom and I headed out to do some last minute Christmas shopping. The winds were horrible so we were hoping for less people to be out and about. After stopping at the first store and heading to the second someone hit my truck. Thank goodness I did not have the kids with me. No one was hurt and I will not get into the details but I was a little hot afterwards.
After having to deal with that we found out a few hours later that Jeremy's grandma had passed away. We tried dealing with that as well as getting info for the arrangements. We went into overdrive in trying to prep for the funeral as well as Christmas. A funeral is uncharted territory so we had no idea what to expect from the kids. Monday morning we packed, got a quote for the repairs to the truck, mailed some Christmas packages and got on the road by 12:30. We could not have done it without the help of my mom...THANK YOU!
We made it to Montfort without major complications. The kids did absolutely wonderful at the wake, funeral, luncheon and burial. I could not have asked for better behaved kids then what they were. They were asked to sit still for longer than 2 seconds, in fact it was an hour and a half of staying put. They met many new people. Had to eat without their booster seats and many other "new" things. We are very proud parents to say the least!
We were in Montfort until today so Christmas at my parents has been rescheduled, our Christmas morning was rescheduled as well as the Lenzendorf Christmas. Santa was nice enough to leave presents for the kids for them to open tomorrow morning. We will celebrate Christmas with Nana, Papa, Aunt Jeanne, Uncle Brent and the girls on Saturday here and the Turner Christmas will be celebrated on the 3rd. For the kids it will seem like Christmas does not end, yet for me it does not even feel like Christmas.
We will miss grandma dearly, but know she is feeling no more pain. The kids will treasure the photos of them with her. Unfortunately they are too young to have many memories but they will be told about her and what an amazing woman she was.
Thank goodness for children as they are sometimes the best comic relief in some stressful and sad times. Here are some "fun" photos of while we were away.
Look mommy I can be just like you...
Daddy is a good place to just chill with a little juice too...

A new bath tub, new bath toys....this bath is SO much fun...

A table made just for us...perfect fit...

Alex working hard on a puzzle...

Zach working hard on being goofy...

Yup we can still ALL fit in the rubbermaid container...

Cousins, a new look and more

The last few days have been a whirlwind of events. Starting with Thursday it has been a roller coaster ride. Jean had to work a few hours due to last minute hussle to get closing on houses before the holidays. So that means Alexis was here. This first picture is of the four of them taking some time out of their busy schedules to read and relax.

Thursday night Jeremy left town to go home for a family emergency. I had planned to re-arrange the breezeway this weekend. I was not sure if I would still be able to with Jeremy being gone. Fortunately with the help of Jean and my mom we were able to do it. The kids did a great job of staying out the way and entertaining themselves. Here is a picture of them "supervising" Jean vacuuming the furniture.

Saturday night Jean and Alexis stopped to have dinner with us. They arrived just as their favorite character was playing on tv...Elmo! The chairs came out again and for a split second all were quiet! Can you tell they like Elmo?!?!?

Alex in the middle of a hug with Alexis.

As you may notice from previous posts, Zach and Alexis are two peas in a pod! Saturday night the two again played together. This time Zach was in love with her hair (as she does have more of it then these guys). Here is some of the pictures of the series of the two of them playing. Zach hugging and playing with her hair. Just too cute!

And I was worried...

When I posted about making it to 150 posts for the year I was afraid that I would not make it, afraid there would not be enough exciting things happening to write about. Looking back now I am not sure why I would worry as every day with the kids is an adventure some less of an adventure and more of a challenge! Most days these guys are doing something worth taking a picture of and it does help to have a mommy that is addicted to taking pictures. So as I write my 146th post of the year my kids are sitting nicely at their table reading their little books (no I did not ask them to do this or put them in these positions). And it is early yet in the day! Hope you have been enjoying the numerous post and pictures.
Love, Jen

Frosty the Snowman

In the last two days a stuffed snowman (we will call him Frosty) has become the object of the kids' affection. Everytime I get him out or they ask me to get him out it is all fun. From pulling on his nose and hat to squeezing his buttons and feet. He is a lot of fun and makes for some great pictures too.
Enjoy,
Jen

Alex wrestling with Frosty on the couch......and now on the floor...wonder who is winning...

Elizabeth and her famous oh oh look...

Last I checked he did not talk but apparently he said something funny...
Zach wondering if he is still dreaming from his nap...

Building Brothers

The kids have been recently re-acquainted with their legos. They love building, mostly towers. Yesterday when the boys were up first from the nap I decided to sit down with them and try to teach them about making a sturdy structure...aka a base. So I started them out and then let their imaginations do the rest. As you can see we have pretty good builders on our hands.
Enjoy,
Jen
Here are the boys playing nicely and sharing the legos...
Zach working on his building...

Alex working on adding to the base mommy made...

...and very proud of his work!

Maybe one more piece...a roof...good choice!

Girlie Ghost

The past few days I have a sweatshirt that I have been wearing on and off. When I take it off it is usually in the play area, sot he kids sometimes pick it up and play with it. Yesterday afternoon I walked into the living room to see Liz trying to put it on. So with a little help from mommy we put it on. These are the pictures that I got.
Enjoy.

This is the best picture. Roxy was actually begging me to feed her supper, but happen to be right by Liz. It is TOO cute!

22 month olds and sick-o

The kids are now 22 months old. Can you believe?!?! I can't! I am not sure where the time has gone. Seems like yesterday I was planning their 1st birthday and now I have to start planning their 2nd. Sometimes I still have to pinch myself as it sometimes does not seem real. Yes, we do have triplets! Sometimes saying it even seems weird, but we would not change it for anything. We love being parents of multiples. We love the adventures and challenges that come with raising multiples. I am so glad I have the blog to keep as my diary cuz I am surely not getting the scrapbook done as fast as they are growing and the baby books...well they have not been touched.
Anywho, back to the kids. They are amazing! They are talking fools. Pretty much anything you say they will try to repeat. Now please understand it may not sound exactly like you said it but they try and that is most important! Their current "new" word/phrase is "all right"...apparently I say it a lot...a lot more than I thought I did. The kids are also working on jumping, which is fun for them as I let them practice on the couch...yes later they will be told to stop jumping but it is a major developmental milestone. Another milestone is climbing the stairs verses crawling. Zach loves walking up using the railing. Alex and Liz are happy to use the wall. We are still working on down.
Fortunately the kids got to spend the day with both of us...unfortunate for daddy as he was home due to being sick (he caught the flu from the boys). After the kids were done with lunch they went in to comfort daddy who had come downstairs for a little bit. It was a chairful! The kids each brought a puzzle to work on with daddy. They are too sweet!

The Meeting

Here it is...our Christmas tree. It is ready to meet the kids. Now it has already met them but it was still "naked" at the time. This morning it had lights on but did not seem to draw much more attention than it did "naked". As the kids napped I trimmed the tree.
The boys were the first to wake from the nap so they got introduced first. Alex was unsure about it....

but was still in awe of it's beauty!

Zach who refused to give me his nuk was happy to see a new toy...

and was of course ready to touch everything without hesitation.

When Liz woke from the nap she also was happy to see a new toy, but she would definitely try to make you think she was innocent...looks like it, right?!?!? You know what she is think...as soon as mom is not looking I will grab the "balls" off and blame the boys...hee hee!

even though she has a casual stance (hand in the pocket) she is planning what she will get away with.

The boys checkin it out...Alex being more cautious and Zach needing to touch everything.

Zach pointing out the parts of the tree.

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree...

Liz and Zach touch and not listening.

100%

How can you tell your kids are feeling better besides the obvious physical signs...well when they are misbehaving. Last night as I attempted to fold laundry, make dinner and update the blog my children decided it was time to show me that they were all better by using the table as their dancing/sliding floor.
Caption for this picture should be "What we aren't doing anything wrong, are we?!?!

Caption for this one is done by Alex "Oops, I think we got caught!"

Caption for this one "But mom it is so much fun, you should try!"

Caption for this one done by Liz "I have been sitting here innocently, it is the boys that are misbehaving."

Yes, we are crazy!

My goal for this weekend was to get my Christmas cards ordered (yes I am WAY behind) and get the tree up. Like last year, we are only putting up the fake tree. We have had much discussion about placement of the tree. Last year we put it up in the living room as the kids were only crawling, so it was less of a danger to them and them to it. This year we discussed putting it in our family room where the kids do not have access to it. After thinking about it yesterday as I pulled the boxes out of the closets, I felt it was good to give the kids some exposure to the tree as we will be in the kids' granparents' homes where tree will be in the main area. So after much discussion we decided to put it in their play area...yup you read that right...it is in the play area WITHOUT a fence to protect it! The jail can no longer be effective as they just climb over it and putting it in the dining room would make things VERY cluttered. We do have a gate that can close off the living room if they are messing with it too much. Last night I was able to get all the branches shaped and in the stand. This morning they "met" the tree. It went well and as of right now we have had no problems. We will get the lights and ornaments on tonight and then tomorrow morning they will have even more things to check out. I will get a picture tomorrow morning of them meeting the "dressed" tree. It should be interesting!
Love, Jen

Oh no...we're in trouble now!!!

Why are three toddlers dangerous? Well to best answer it I will use a reason told to me by my sister Jean from a friend of hers that has twins. His girls behavior is like an adults...what one does not think of the other does or adds on to a beginning idea. Let me explain...even though 2 out of 3 are sick their minds are still going a mile a minute. After lunch on Friday Liz came up with the idea to move one of the big chairs (we have a dining room table in their play area - they like to play with their puzzles on it so we kept it in) away from the table, then Alex improved the idea by moving the chairs into the living room portion of their play area. Not to be out done Zach improved it even more by putting the chair close enough to the TV to reach the remotes on top. The power of 3!!! Don't get me wrong, even one toddler can be dangerous. Here are the picutes of them in the living room enjoying they new found fun!

We are on the mend!

It is 3:28pm and we are on the mend. Yesterday went ok...all food stayed where it was put. I survived at work without falling asleep at the front desk (that would have been embarassing). Although the boys were not 100% they played and napped well for grandma. I was asleep (out cold asleep) on the couch by 9:30. The kids sleep well last night, so well that Alex barely moved from where he originally started from. Zach did wake during the night but I physically could not get myself up and out of bed. Luckily he settled himself (don't worry Jeremy would have gone in otherwise...lol). So far, knock on wood, Liz is free and clear from any symptoms as well as mommy and daddy. Zach is about 75% normal, but poor Alex is taking a beating.
This morning he did not look good or act good. I did speak with pediatrician and have a plan. This morning he insisted that ALL the blankets from his crib come downstairs with him including the big quilt that great grandma Lenzendorf made for him. After standing in the kitchen waiting for breakfast he just could not hold them anymore so I put him in his chair so it was easier to hold them. Well there was a MAJOR meltdown when I took the blankets so he could eat (I did see that coming but had no way to avoid it). Apparently the breakfast served was not what he wanted as he flung his plate and fork across the table, but no that was not good enough he grabbed the plate back and tipped it over so all the food fell off. So that was it, he ended up in the rocker with all his blankets...happy as a pig in mud. Due to a dehydation worry, I tried feeding him while he sat in the rocker. As you can see from the picture the "king" was happy with that.
The morning was not the fun fulled morning we usually have. Alex was quite worried about the blankets. Here is another picture of him in his saucer chair with all the blankets.

So as they eat lunch right now (yes late lunch but that is due to naps), Alex, who is at the table eating, is in much better spirits. We are working on pushing fluids and trying to avoid a doctor's visit. I must say I felt so helpless as a mother on Tuesday night as I am sure most mothers that have been through the flu with a child or children would agree. There is nothing, absolutely nothing you can do for them. At this young age they just don't understand what is happing and you can explain what to do but they don't understand....it is just the worst feeling. I definitely went into super-mommy mode doing whatever I needed to to help them. I have done more laundry in the last 48 hours than I care to talk about. But whatever I could do to help.

So it is now 3:58, kids are done eating and I have managed to slice my foot open (don't ask, just chalk it up to me being clumsy) and we keep truckin on getting better. I do have to say thanks to my mom for babysitting and opening herself up to illness as well as running over some Pedialyte this morning.

Love, Jen

Hungry Man

The idea for today's post came from a picture I took last night of Alex as well as the fact that a few posts back there was no picture of Alex. Here is the picture that I took of Alex last night...
...at dinner time we trade food between the kids depending on who is more interested in what food and most times Alex is the last one eating. So tonight I slid Zach's plate in front of Alex. Alex then helped himself to Zach's fork as well as food. So that is where the title comes for this post BUT little did I know what the night had in store for us and this is where things take a turn.
The kids went to sleep as normal. I was in the house alone as Jeremy was plowing us out from all the snow we received earlier in the day. About 1/2 hour after the kids were sleeping I heard Alex cough which seemed weird. He then started crying. I flew upstairs to see what was wrong. Well apparently he had come down with the flu. After "fixing" things I brought him downstairs just as Jeremy came in. As he headed upstairs to change Zach started crying out of the blue. He also came down with the flu. We then had both boys downstairs and a very watchful eye on Liz. After deciding to put them back into their cribs we headed to bed ourselves. At about 1:30 and after the third or fourth trip into the boys' room I decided to camp out there. They were getting up every 20-30 minutes. After a very long night with them I did get some sleep in my own bed for about 35 minutes. Unfortunately I will not be able to make up the sleep today as I have to go into work for the afternoon. Hopefully grandma still wants to babysit!

Winter Wonderland

Today we were hit with another big snow storm. I love it!!! It is like when I was younger...enough snow to make tunnels and forts. I took some pictures from the house to show how much there is. Last year we hit 100 inches of snow for the season and it is only December 9th and we have been hit with 2 snow storms that dropped about 12 inches each time. It will be a beautiful white Christmas.
This is a picture of the deck off the side of the house. On the corner of the deck is a heated bird bath (not plugged in yet). There is a good 12 inches of snow piled in it.
This is the kids' playyard...I know you cannot tell but that is a small table and slide...it is going to be a LOT of fun to play in once we get a path shoved.

This is also the kids' playyard...this is the climber with swing that they have...can you imagine the tunnels that could be made using that!!!

So this post was started before the end of the day and I was happy with just writing about he beautiful weather we are having...but the kids managed to get in this post as well. The kids are very good about playing by themselves, so I leave them do their thing and just stand-by in case they want to play with me too. So one by one they came out of the living room into the dining room where their new playhouse is and each had a blanket in hand. They proceeded to go into the house and wrap themselves up and lay down! I added to the fun by giving them pillows to rest their heads on. Here are the pictures I took from this play time.

We love Daddy!

Last night after we changed the kids into their jammies they played with daddy until bedtime. It started with just one, Alex, but then the others caught on. I love watching daddy play with the kids, makes me love him more and more. He is such a good daddy. It is hard to tell who is having more fun- the kids or daddy! He loves his time with them, which some days is short. I will let the pictures so the rest of the talking.
Enjoy,
Jen

Ho Ho Ho to the NICU we go...

This afternoon was the annual Christmas party for the NICU graduates. This year was a lot different than last year.
If you look back to last years post about this if probably says we were there for 15 minutes, we did not move much as the kids had to be held, it was jammed packed and we did not even attempt to go see Santa. The highlight of last year's party was seeing one of the night nurses, Julie aka the one that caught Zach. Since she works nights we had not seen her on our other visits. That was last year, which seems like decades ago.
Onto this year...I think our bigggest obstacle this year was their nap. We let them nap for only an hour and hoped they would sleep on the way, but that did not happen. So we were hoping for good attitudes. As we looked for a parking space we notice another triplet family. The tell tale triplet stroller gave them away. They must of had very little ones as they were in carseat yet (like ours were last year). We did not talk to them, but I was tempted (it is nice to meet others like us).
This year it was still very busy, but the kids were able to walk themselves. After getting our outerwear off, Jeremy took the boys to sit down and I took Liz through the goodies line to grab some cookies for the kids to try. After finishing the treats we visited with "Sheriff" the cop's dog. We got some coloring books and crayons, so we sat back down to color until our time to see Santa (still not sure if we were going to see him or not). We did then decide to introduce them to Santa for the first time. It went very well for them being tired, strange place and strange people. Santa's elve gave them each a book and a beanie baby. We then visited the fireman that was there and got another coloring book.
Prior to us leaving the auditorium we ran into another triplet family. This family is one that I follow their blog. They are also part of the local triplet group. They have 3 girls that are just darling. We talked for a bit. It is always nice talking with someone else that thinks this craziness is "normal"....lol!
Next stop was to the NICU to see if any of the kids' nurse were working. Lucky for us Judy (Alex's primary) and Gwen (Zach's day primary) were there. I gave them some of the fall pictures of the kids so they would have updated photos. We were also lucky to see the kids' neonatologist. Just like the nurses like to see the kids they care for progress so do the doctors so I am glad we ran into him. While we were in the NICU lobby there was a set of quads 3 years old (2 boys and 2 girls). We talked with those parents for a little while as well.
As with any trip to the NICU, it brings back memories. It is the strangest things you'll remember too. Like getting a soda from the vending machine for every ride home after visiting the kids or walking past labor & delivery and remembering the day I was admitted for preterm labor and on and on.
Here is one of the pictures taken with Santa.
Enjoy,

Purse Party

Tonight Grandma and Grandpa babysat the kids while Jeremy and I went to a Christmas Party. Jean and Alexis stopped in to drop off Liz's snowsuit that they had borrowed. While they were here they played and I guess were quite funny. These pictures were taken by grandma, but apparently the kids had a blast playing with the purses and baseball caps. It is always interesting to look at my camera after grandma and grandpa babysit...the last time the kids were all in the big blue bucket we have for toys...oh the fun never stops (even when we are not here...lol)!
Enjoy, Jen

Bubble bath anyone?

Tonight Jean and Alexis brought dinner over so we could all eat together and the kids could play as I have not watch Alexis a lot in the past few weeks. Friday nights are bath night for the kids as well as Alexis so she joined in the fun. Tonights bath was a little different...tonight we made a bubble bath. The kids had a blast with the bubbles. We strategically put bubbles on the boys so pictures could be taken. A bubble bath would be nice...relaxing....warm...quiet...ok, ok I'll quit dreaming!!! Here are the pictures of the kids taking their first bubble bath.
Love, Jen
All four of them with bubbles everywhere....
Alexis is doing what she does best...eating the bubbles...with a spoon even...good table manners...lol!

Say cheese....better yet...say bubbles!

Alexis is also the little helper...here she is helping wash Liz's back...

Let's do the wave!!!

It standard practice in our house to wave good-bye to visitors as they leave. This has been what my family has done FOREVER. At my parent's house you stand at the kitchen window and wave good-bye. So we have been having the kids wave to people as they leave. Jean dropped off Alexis for me to watch her. I tell the kids to go to the window to wave. They know which window they have to go to. So they all hopped up on the hope chest and waited patiently for Jean to drive away. They may not always wave but 95% of the time they are at least looking out the window.
I got them on film this time...L to R - Zach, Liz, Alex, Alexis.
Love, Jen

Alex, Liz & Zach the Builder(s)

You probably have heard of "Bob the Builder" (a kids cartoon), but have you heard of Alex, Liz, and Zach the Builders??? The kids decided to all where their hard hats and all play in the same area. I could not resist the urge to take pictures. So if you need some workers to help with some odd jobs around the house, I have three highly qualified workers. One is degreed in demolition...that would be Zach. One is degreed in engineering and safety...that would be Alex. One is degreed in design...that would be Liz. They make an awesome team!
They are just too cute (I know I am biased...lol)!
Love, Jen

2 of 3 only!

When I got done posting for November I saw I was very close to 150 posts for the year, which I thought was great...almost double the amount from last year. So I have made it my goal to reach 150 by December 31st...hopefully we (I should say the kids) will do enough fun things to posts about or I may not make it.
So in helping get to that goal I am posting today about Zach and Liz. You may ask what about Alex...well apparently I did not take a picture of him by himself, which I normally try to get them all separate. So Alex please forgive me as you are not included in this post's pictures.
If you have been around lately you know that Zachary is the pusher of buttons...that is mommy's buttons. His listening skills are somewhat non-existant at times. He knows his is not suppose to climb on the "good" end table to get one the couch. So in order to get around that rule he used the stacked books in front of the end table to climb over the arm of the couch. He is always thinking!!! Can you tell he knows he is not being as good as he should be?!?!?
Miss Elizabeth made herself comfy in daddy's rocker to play with Noah's Ark with the hope of no interruptions..yea like that ever happens in this house.

WWF Lenzendorf Style

Some days I think the kids are trying out for the WWF. It is not just the boys either, Liz can hold her own pretty good and is sometimes the instigator! They wrestle on the couch, on the floor and even in the rocker. It is all in fun but every so often tears will result from the wrestling. Wrestling can involve them all or just 2. Occassionally we will have to go in for a save when one wrestler refuses to get off the other wrestlers' head. At this point we do not have special uniforms/outfits for wrestling...we must make it to the big league for that...lol! Enjoy the pictures from a few wrestling matches below.
Love, Jen
Liz and Alex wrestling on the couch...
they are NOT having any fun at all!!!

Liz and Alex wrestling in the rocker...still no fun!!!

Zach and Alex wrestling on the couch...actually more Zach riding on Alex's back like a horse...there must be a name for this move!

All three of them wrestling on the floor...absolutely no fun is allowed in this house...lol!

Liz thinks she is winning...notice the big grin!
