Omaha trip

The beginning of October we took a trip to Omaha to see our Grandson Brady. We haven't seen him since he was out of the hospital and this was the first time that we got to hold him! We went at the beginning of October so we could get there at the beginning of RSV season and before it got cold. Unfortunatly, the little boys had runny noses so we didn't let them around Brady.

Even Britton got to hold him!

We met up with Katie. Britton loves his biggest sister!

Since we went to Omaha in the beginning of October we were able to go to Vala's pumpkin patch. This is not your ordinary pumpkin patch, this is a huge place with so many fun things to do.

Hanging with Mickey!
Any takers.....?
One day they will all be in school and I may be able to regain some sanity. I can always hope, right?
Running through the graveyard to see the scary "guy"!
Of course we had to see the goats
Oh no, Britton turned into a ghost!
Rocking with Daddy
Hanging out with Aunt 'Dre
The boys on the pirate ship
Britton joined the pirates
Jumping in the hay
Waiting to see the pumpkin eating dragon. They really liked the show and talked about it the whole time!

The jumping "pillows". The boys had fun on these but were a little nervous. Dad had to help them up and jump with them.
They had fun with this picture
One of the boys' favorite things was riding the bike with Daddy. The little boys thought they were so big and Britton had a blast going really fast with Dad.

After our day at Vala's we spent the next day at the Omaha Zoo. I was realy excited to take the boys, since it is one of the best zoos in the country. I was VERY upset that the aquarium wasn't open, since I knew that would have been their favorite part.

We met up with my Omaha triplet moms friends at the zoo. Carissa, who has 3 year old triplets and Laura who triplets are 18 days older than mine. Amanda drove up from Lincoln with her almost 3 year old boys. Katie, Mathew and Krista also met us at the zoo, so it was a great day with family and friends.

In the rainforest checking out all the monkeys, birds and fish
Katie and Emerson
Krista and Everett
Lunch! It only took 3 tables to hold 3 moms of triplets.
Riding the carousel
Checking out the sleeping gorilla
The kingdoms of the night was very fun for the boys. They enjoyed running around in the dark and checking out all the animals. Here they are looking at the turtles
The boys thought that it was great fun to put the hay that the goats were eating on top of them. Of course they had to be bad influences and show the Harper boys their bad ways ;)

Hopefully we will be able to make another trip to Omaha in the next few months. Brady is getting so big and Chris and I hope to be able to visit him as much as possible.
