Evie & Sophie come home!!

After a short time of training at the hospital, and an even shorter recovery time at home for Stacey - Two of the girls came home Saturday August 19!! They looked so tiny in the carseats. Sophie was too small to ride in the carseat, so we had to buy a "carbed" to take her home in. However, she is so long that her head hits the top!




















The nusery was ready to go when they came home, so we layed them right down to sleep in their cribs. Oh how timy they looked in them!

















We are having a great time as a new family, but we are also sad as Olivia isn't home with us yet. We prayerfully wait for her day to come home!

Sorry if this post is kind of tardy since the last one. As you can imagine, things are a bit hectic right now taking care of these two little ones and running to the hospital to spend time with the other. Also stacey has to give me pictures and "the post" so I can do this at work since we can't from home.

That is a reason for praise...but are you telling me that you and Stacey got something better to do than screw around with a blog all day?.....and I thought I knew you, Most of my family and friends really don't have anything better to do than that, But remember Brad, the joke e mail world does depend on you, when your gone it shuts down, don't let them down

Aren't the babies great? They look so cute in their cribs. I will have to ask Sophie if I can use that "car-bed" for my trip up to Canada. It might come in handy for the 10 hour ride up. Arrowman and I can take turns naping in it.

Does the room need a mans touch? When Olivia gets home triplet dad and I will hang a nice duck on the wall for them

Evie and Sophie are adorable!!!! Can't wait for Olivia to be home!You guys are so good with those tiny ones. Yeah Brad (and Brian too) like to think they are big tough guys, but we know they are great big teddy bears!!!! Arrowman is right, you do have the diaper changing skills your father never had. You better never wrap another diaper around a smelly one like he did! :-) I take exception to Fig's statement about the girls looking like their grandpa's. What's wrong with looking like the grandmas? Well, okay, you can teach them all about hunting and fishing, but they must look like girls!!!

Ahhhh, your family and friends have little better to do than to read and comment either, I like them a lot

Your girls are so cute! Congratulations! Hopefully Olivia can come home soon. Oh and fig don't hang a duck in their room, you dont want to scare them. And don't forget to catch me that bear when you go to Canada!

Brad you did a great job taking over the blog!I feel so privileged to help in the girls care. They are so sweet even at 1:00 and 4:00 am.I enjoyed being the "milk delivery lady" today .Olivia took her bottle very well for me and said she can't wait to come home.

I can't wait to see these beautiful babies. I have so much to warn them about one grandpa in paticular. I want to be sure they get the true story on him.

To not so great aunt Tami. Grandpa Fig already has taught us: "Sports - Good, Boys - Bad" and chearleading is not a sport.

I agree girls, cheerleading is not a sport. You should listen to your Grandpa Fig and stay away from Tami and Chelle - she likes to dribble off her knee.

Sorry about that, I sat the bench my junior year and learned all the cheers, what I supposed to look at? the game?

Glad to see the girls are getting to use my shower gift! And what's all this talk about hunting, fishing or cheerleading? We all know the girls are going to follow in their mom's footsteps and be state champion shot putters! I can't wait to come see all three and give them their cutie gifts!

Sonny Huisman said...

OK, OK, so cheerleading is not a sport . . . but for those of us that sucked at all other sports, and were good at yelling - it worked.

Geez, I feel so judged.

Hey, just be prepared to encourage their cheerleading skills in case the whole shot putting thing doesn't work out.

It could be worse - you could have three male cheerleading Pylmans.

I never said cheerleading was a sport, but I was never without a date.
Let's face it the reason Ron first fell for Cheryl was during his Junior year on the bench, who do you think he was watching cheer?

Tami, I don't think Brad and Stacey really want to think about dating...and weddings...yet

what dribble off my knee? That is my patented move! So good in fact, that no one can forget it.
