Creamers Field

We took a walk to Creamers Field so all the kids could see the birds that have returned for the summer(they really do fly south all winter from here).

The moms, pushing our Double, Triple and Quad strollers~

Alina, Bryce and Camron with their friends Ciana, Camden and Colten, one of the other sets of triplets born in 2008 in Fairbanks. They usually only happen here once every 7 years, but in 2008 there were 3 sets born(in all of Alaska), all resulting in 2 boys, 1 girl. Each set has 2 blue eyed babies and 1 brown eyed baby and gives each of their mothers only 1 girl.
3 moms with 13 kids between us and 1 more on the way.
Ciana and Alina. They were instantly attached!~Ciana has 5 brothers and Alina 4.....these two had better stick together, someone has to put all those boys in their place!~

Borges Bros.(and sister) - The cutest show on Earth!

We like to take walks around the neighborhood, and of course we put on a show. Tonight we had everything from stares, laughing, pointing, clapping and even had someone come back around for a second look. While we were pointing at the people on the motorcycle, they were pointing at us, and had to come back and see the Act up close and personal.

Our Circus on Wheels~ Okay boys, just bring 'em back before bed time...~ Hmmm....lets ride on the side of the wagon

Knotty Shop

We took the kids to the Knotty Shop this weekend. It's the best place you can get homemade Ice Cream in Alaska! It's a little tourist attraction and boy did those tourist get a little more sight seeing then they were expecting.....all eyes were on the "people over there who have twins AND triplets".

Ice Sledding

I took the kids to the Ice Park today. It was a lot of fun and the perfect time to go, since most people don't know it's open yet. Jadon absolutely loved it and said nothing but "more, more, more" the entire time we were there. Jace on the other hand insisted on going down without a sled and walked around with a grumpy face the whole time. But of course, me being the mean mama that I am, I made Jace ride down with me in a sled. When Grandma asked him if he had fun, he cried "yeeeeesss", as if it was the most painful thing he had ever been through. But my theory on life is, almost everything is worth trying once, because if you don't, you'll never know what you could be missing out on. Overall it was a great, warm, beautiful day out with the kids and friends!

Everything is melting!

After being at 40 below for several weeks now, it feels like summer outside! That's because it has warmed up over 80 degrees in less than a week here and it is freakin awesome!!!!! For those of you who have never been to Alaska, Fairbanks has the widest temperature span in the world, ranging from 66 below in the winter and can get up to 100 degrees in the summer! I am so ready for summer to be here I can hardly wait! Today was the babies first walk outside(other than going to appointments). It was great, granted we looked like a circus act, but I don't care! I won't be house bound with 5 kids, so out we will go! I pushed a double with a wagon tied to my waste and my friend Bry pushed a double with her son packed on her back.....

All ready to go~
