I can roll over!

Last night while making dinner we witnessed young Hollace conquer the roll! Sqawking the whole time he propelled his little body on to his belly several times! Mornings just got a lot busier for me!

Three years old and full of charm

Anders is just getting more fun and funny as he gets older. And while he can be challenging ("I can't walk over there and apologize because I don't have two legs," said with a sincere straight face) he also brings a huge amount to entertainment to our lives. 

A common evening sight. 

This one, too. 

He's incredibly independent in the morning. 

Some days he crawls out of bed and I find home like this ("don't take a picture, mom.")

And the other days he's grabbed a spoon and helped himself to a yogurt from the fridge and is trying to open it.  Or has pulled out a frozen waffle, popped it in the toaster oven and turned it on. 

He spends a lot of naked time in the house and prefers to wear his apron when helping with dinner. Safety first. 

Unwrapping his burrito all by himself. 

Thrilled with his mustache like his Doodah's

The three twins

Hollace and I ventured down to Oakland to visit Greta, Kathleen, Joseph and Malcolm this weekend and had a total baby rager. When all six of us walked down the street people couldn't help but stare and comment. Most frequent guess, "they must be a mommy and baby group." 

Hollace is a splendid travel companion. Here he is taking a catnap on the BART. 

First meeting. Malcolm was thoughtful, Joseph thrilled and Hollace looking a little stunned. 

Hollace and Joseph had a fabulous time on the playmat together. 

Hollace and Malcolm, face to face. 

Practicing my multi-tasking. Bouncing Hollace in the chair and cuddling Malcolm. 

Greta and Hollace having some snuggle time while the other boys napped. 

Kathleen and I successfully got Joseph and Hollace to nap while walking to brunch. 

Then they woke up. 

Hollace and Malcolm. 

Hollace and Joseph had a thrilling time checking each other out. 

It took some effort to get them all awake and happy at the same time given they all have different rhythms. But, finally, a shot with all three!

Passed out on the flight home. 

He's getting chunky

He also really loves animals. Hard to tell what's happening below, but my coworker's dog, Frances, can't help but kiss babies. Everytime she would he'd give a big grin.
