I Can't Catch Up!!!

My poor blog is totally getting the shaft! This weekend will be the first time in 6 weeks that Joe and I will actually be in town! Mama feels like she is going 100 mph and can't slow down! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! During the week, we have been busy with appointment after appointment after appointment (quad vision tests, quad flu shots, mom & dad- flu shots, me-dentist, me-vision, etc). After the holidays, life should slow down a bit..and maybe I can get back into a good routine. But I wouldn't trade it for the world! This non-stop coming and going is SOOOOO much better than being stuck inside a house all day, every day like last year! Its just taking me a little longer to catch up!

Here are some pics from last weekend in Waco.

The game was...less than desirable for an Aggie fan...but a DATE for mom and dad nonetheless!


Ms. Snaggle-tooth as we like to call her, is FINALLY working on those two front teeth! (Mama is sure gonna miss those gummy smiles!)


Ethan has been getting into ANY and EVERY thing he possibly can...keeping his mama on her TOES day in and day out! Goodness gracious this kid is a whiz-kid when it comes to getting into trouble.


My sweet little baby Drew is going to need glasses when he starts school in a couple of years. Poor thing! He was the only one who got a bad report from the eye doc. But hey, at least it will help differentiate the identicals! "Don't you worry, Drew...Mama is going to find the coolest glasses for you!" (to break over and over and over...fun fun!)


Little Miss Thang...I cannot believe how much she is developing each day. She is learning at least one new word a day--a little sponge, soaking up anything we say or do! (YIKES!) Daddy has been working with Savannah on a neat little trick for Thanksgiving...I'll have to get that one on video! It is hilarious!


Mr. Ben...still a MESS! The kid cracks me up every day.

  1. Am I allowed to say that it is about time? Seriously, I can not get enough of these sweet and precious faces (you and Joe are sweet too). I am amazed at what all they can do and how much they are growing. I do agree that life will probably slow down after the holidays-hopefully!

    Hi Suzanne... I love your blog and your kids are precious!! I am the mom of one year old GGB triplets...Copeland, Maggie, & Cash. I was selling some things we have outgrown to a pregnant triplet mom in our area. She came over with her mom & mom-in-law....Doreen Michael, who is a relative of yours. She happened to mention "Suzanne has quads in Texas" and I started going crazy like I knew you! Anyways....I have been "lurking" for about a year and told Doreen that I would finally comment.

    Your family is adorable and you are too funny! You inspire me! My life is crazy but I love it. Hope I can start a blog soon.....spend so much time reading others...I should have my own.

    Closet reader here ...
    I seriously want your hair too! It is such a cute bob and so shiny! wow!
    Advice for glasses: FLEXON. (that's a brand) Unbreakable glasses, and most places offer a one year warranty. My eight year old has worn glasses since the age of 3...
    I'd say you are doing a great job with your blog, all considered! ;) I love seeing these miracles grow ...

    Squeezing the computer and hoping you will pop out of it!

  23. Since 2nd grade I have know identical twin boys and one of them wore glasses until middle school...it certainly helped me tell them apart! They are good friends of my husband and I (are actually the ones who set us up!) so I couldn't help but think of them when you said Drew would need glasses! Plus, I wore glasses from age 3 until middle school then wore contacts and eventually didn't need any correction at all! There is hope! ;)

  24. Oh my! I can't believe how much they are changing! Such cutie pies! Love the pjs, isn't it fun to get some cooler weather here so we can actually put the pjs to good use? I feel for you with all the travel - you must be exhausted. Sending my love your way! Mari

  28. Well, they are adorable and getting SO big! The teachers at preschool love having Riley in glasses to tell her and Makena apart more easily. And we haven't had a broken pair yet...so there is hope:)

  32. I can totally relate! We are never home either. I work part time out of town so we commute a lot! I think I will "catch up" when they enter school! At least that is what I tell myself! haha!

  35. Seriously, how is it possible that your hair always looks so good?! You could be a Pantene model. As always, I enjoy your blog. Have a great weekend!

  36. They are getting so big yet they are so tiny. I just want to add about your hair as well. Can we say, jealous? I am envious. You just always seem like you have it so together. God knew you could handle a bundle of 4.

  37. I thought that it was about time that I sent you a little note after following your blog for awhile now. Your little family is so cute, and everyone is right, you can just feel the love you have for your little ones. Thanks for sharing a little bit of your world with the rest of the world.
