Kitchen Reno Day Fifteen

Today The Mister and I have been working on the dining room side

of the kitchen.  He assembled cabinets and installed lighting.

I matted, framed and hung some vintage botanical lithographs

that I got at an auction this summer.  

Today the triplets turned 21!

Here's a peek back at them at 2 days old.

Hard to believe that 18 lbs of baby was inside me just

 48 hours before.  ha! You can imagine how uncomfortable

I was.  lol....but I carried them to 37 weeks and they

were big, healthy and able to come home right away.

I. however, wasn't as well off as they were.  The day after

this picture was taken for the local newspaper, I coughed

and split my C-Section incision wide open and had to

go back into surgery to have it repaired.  It delayed our

going home by a day, but after that we were all good to go.

Happy Birthday, boys!

We're doing the real celebrating in a few days.
