Not actually just discovered it, but just bothered to open it up and play around with it for the first time. As if I didn't have enough ways to waste time on the computer. It's not like there's anything I could be doing around the house, like unp...

Spring 2006: Summer 2009: I think I should start taking this picture every year. Can you imagine how totally willing to cooperate they'll be when they're about 14?

I stole an idea from another triplet mom I know and decided to "interview" the girls. Lily was pretty chatty, Eve seemed a little uncomfortable, and Julia was totally distracted by what was going on in the next room. But it was pretty fun and I'v...
