A Trip to Michigan

2009-05-15T21:26:00.000-07:00

So, our trip to Michigan (all the way back in February) was a fun trip...though it would have been more fun if Cathy didn't have to go to work instead of on vacation. But we had a great time visiting with Aunt Faith, Conor, Collin, and Aidan.

Babies' Dedication Service 4/4/09

2009-04-11T14:27:00.000-07:00

We had a Dedication Service for our little ones last Sabbath, April 4, 2009. It took place during the worship service (the dedication portion of which is chronicled in the above video).

All of the Grandparents (Grandad Steve and Gramma Jo, and Grandpa John and Gramma Lin) were able to be in attendance, as well as Uncle Mark, Aunt Faith, cousins Conor, Collin, and Aidan, and Uncle David, and Aunt Leeann. It was a nice service officiated by Pastor (and Uncle) Dale Thorngate.

Cathy and I also became members of the Salem Seventh Day Baptist Church that morning, thereby moving us another step toward becoming full-fledged West Virginians.

Our Big Adventure

2009-04-02T14:35:00.000-07:00

After our Holiday Season settled down and following our trip to the Magic Kingdom, things got crazy for us.

Something that we had been discussing off and on for the past 8+ years finally came to fruition. And so, we have moved to the outskirts of Charleston, WV. Cathy is back in the classroom teaching at the tiny Valley High School in Smithers, WV and Johnmark has given up working with other people's children and now stays at home with his own.

It has been a very busy couple of months for us filled with many questions and fewer answers, but we are now in the land of Coal and Camo (short A, long O), starting to find our way once again.

God is gracious and we have discovered that He is very much present no matter where you find your feet.

Family Photos with Cinderella's Castle

2009-04-02T06:03:00.000-07:00

It is quite amazing how hard it is to take pictures at a theme park while hauling around three children...thus the reason for so few pictures from our first visit to the Magic Kingdom with Cate, Eve, and Jonah. But, we were able to get a couple of decent photos out of one of the many eager photographers that roam the grounds, and here they are.

Here we have Eve trying to determine the best method for getting on the horse, Jonah trying to gag himself with yet another implement, and Cate enjoying the simple pleasure that is "shoe-toting."

We also have a photo of a very common occurence in the Camenga household...Cate, Jonah, and Eve hanging out in the Florida room, each with a different expression. Eve was clearly enjoying herself the most.

Trip to Silver Springs

2008-12-07T19:58:00.002-08:00

Well, the yung'ns were on their own on Friday, November 28th as we traveled to Silver Springs. The Herd for this trip consisted of Uncle Andrew, Aunt Kristin, Cousin Elisa, Uncle Mark, Aunt Faith, Cousin Conor, Cousin Collin, Cousin Aidan, Daddy, Mommy, Cate, Eve, and Jonah. We had a good time going from boat ride to boat ride, feeding giraffes, feeding children and pushing strollers. This day marked the first time the triplets were on a boat.

The slide show below illustrates our day at Silver Springs.

Trip to Kennedy Space Center

2008-12-06T19:38:00.002-08:00

On Tuesday, November 25, Grandpa John (the good looking guy in the middle with the camera around his neck) was kind enough to spend his day off of work at work giving his family an expert tour of Kennedy Space Center. Our group consisted of Grandpa John, Gramma Lin, Uncle Andrew, Aunt Kristin, Cousin Elisa, Uncle Mark, Aunt Faith, Cousin Conor, Cousin Collin, Cousin Aidan, Cathy, Johnmark, Cate, Eve and Jonah (15 in all). We had a great day with a great guide.

The slide show below shows some of the highlights of the day.

Trip to Leu Gardens

2008-12-06T19:11:00.000-08:00

On Monday, November 24, we went to Harry P. Leu Botanical Gardens. We enjoyed our stroll through the gardens looking at roses, butterflies, fake mushrooms and even Sausage Fruit. It was a very nice outing capped off with a stop at Wendy's (a Wendy's at which they did not serve Baconators...but I digress). Burgers, Nuggets and fun was had by all.

The slide show above gives a glimpse into the day.

Trip to De Leon Springs

2008-12-06T18:59:00.000-08:00

On Sunday, November 23, we went to De Leon Springs so that we could enjoy the deliciousness that is DIY Pancakes (or French Toast) at the Mill in addition to the fun of a walk around the park. The kids got to fall in the mulch and play on the playground. Jonah, Cate, and Eve took turns going down the slides with their cousins Conor, Collin, and Aidan as well as with their Uncle Mark.

The slide show below gives a brief visual account of the morning.

The Answer to Our First Poll

2008-11-15T20:21:00.001-08:00

The question was...

How many diapers/day do you think we use?

The answer is...

*12 - 14

Please participate in our new poll as we will soon reveal yet another intriguing numerical mystery from the House of Camenga.

*under normal circumstances assuming that none of the children are sick or have had unauthorized and unsupervised access to the nursery for a period of time greater than 30 seconds per incident.

Giraffe in Timeout

2008-11-15T19:30:00.000-08:00

Last Monday, we picked up Gramma Lin in Daytona and headed south to the Brevard Zoo. We saw lots of fun and interesting things, but this giraffe was my favorite. He was in "timeout" because he ran off the other giraffes and, apparently, he had been swinging his head at visitors. Unfortunately, I didn't get any footage of the head swinging but, it was still very cool to gets this close.

Three Little Monkeys

2008-10-10T19:10:00.001-07:00

Our friends Jon and Kristina (and Kylie and Luke) gave us a few costumes for the babies. When we saw the monkey costume, our first thought was "see no evil, hear no evil...etc." The babies wouldn't cooperate as far as copying the appropriate hand gestures, so these poses had to suffice.

2008-10-06T19:26:00.000-07:00

As you can see by these three pictures (if you haven't already noticed)...

Cate, Eve, and Jonah have a tendency to climb on top of...

and inside of whatever they find around the house. It provides a great deal of amusement, but also a bit of frustration as each of the Little Monsters enjoys falling off of the things onto which they have climbed...that is, they enjoying the falling, just not so much the landing.

Eve's Lengtheining Hair

2008-10-06T19:18:00.000-07:00

Well, Eve's hair has gotten long enough now that we have to try to do something with it. Neither Cathy nor I have any experience with attempting to tame the hair of a toddler. Usually Eve's hair is flying free Sunday through Friday, but on Sabbath we try to reclaim some manner of folicular order...so, here's Johnmark's best attempt.

The Latest Stats...

2008-08-02T17:20:00.000-07:00

Tuesday July 22nd was the day of the babies' latest doctor visit. As usual, we feel bad for Cate, Eve and Jonah when they have to endure the pain of the shots...but we always feel much worse for the nurse because she has to give shots to not one, but three babies. Invariably, the nurse is all but in tears when the injections have ended...it would be nice if we could say the same for our little monsters. Cate was the one with the stiffest upper lip; she cried while she received her shots, but returned to her normal demeanor (and color) almost immediately. Jonah fared the second best followed by poor Eve. Eve has also fallen victim to the fever that sometimes attacks the immunization-ees (although she is back to normal now too).

Anyway, on to the stats...

Cate weighs 19lbs and 13oz and she is 28 1/2" long.

Eve weighs 19lbs and 6oz and she is 28 1/2" long.

Jonah weighs 20lbs and 13oz and is 29" long.

Since their last vist, Eve, all by herself, gained almost as much as Cate and Jonah did together so, she is all done with being the frail little one that everyone needs to be worried about...she's ready to run with the big dogs (and Winston too).

That is not to belittle what Cate and Jonah accomplished...all three of them are right on track, in the appropriate growth range, and they seem to be as normal as they can be considering who their parents are.

The First Birthday Weekend

2008-07-21T20:46:00.000-07:00

Well, we made it to and through the First Birthday Celebration.

On Sunday (July 20) I thought it would be a good idea to try a Sea World trip...little did I realize that we live in Florida and that it would end up being 95 degrees in Orlando with a relative humidity of "moist." There were flashes of enjoyment from the babies (and I think we captured those in the pictures from the Remix below) but they were pretty miserable most of the day.

They were all asleep (albeit briefly) as we waited to see the Blue Horizon Dolphin Show. Oh, but then a large group of well-meaning Brazilians noticed the sleeping triplets and commenced to fawn over, touch and, yes, awaken said sleeping triplets. Please note that the country of origin is not significant in regards to the behavior...most anyone we come across in public feels that it is not only their right, but also their duty to point out that we have three babies and also to awkwardly express their affection for these three children.

Ah, going out in public.

So, we had a very private birthday celebration at home. It was a nice afternoon of naps, dinner, presents and cupcakes. As you will see in the video, the girls were a bit more timid around the cupcake than Jonah, but, in the very least, each cupcake was missing a good portion of icing.

I've had to break the video up into three segments, each of which will take a while to upload so, they will be available for viewing shortly...by the way, don't worry about trying to watch the video segments in order...no matter which order you view them, the plot remains the same and the ending remains predictable.

Tugging with Winston

2008-07-13T21:00:00.000-07:00

Cate and Jonah were having a blast (and being egged on by their father) with their dog. Eve tried to get in on the action, but wisely stayed on the outskirts. What the video does not show is the result of Cate's tumble at the end. It is a bit of a long clip, but the laughter from the babies makes it worth it for me.

These are some of the sights and sounds that have become frequent in our household. Jonah, Cate and Eve babbling, Eve showing off her clapping skills, Jonah trying to snap, Cate smacking her tray and everything in between. This is about as close as we got to fireworks today. Anyway...Happy 4th!

Baby Eve's trail of destruction...

2008-07-03T20:51:00.001-07:00

Eve often goes to bed and decides that she would rather be elsewhere so, in the process of fighting the inevitable, she has developed the tendency to pull items out of the dirty clothes basket (which is obviously within reach of her crib). Notice in the lower right of the picture, Eve was able to get the outfit she wore that day as well as the skorts Cate wore and a few other items. I know, I know...why don't we just move the laundry basket? Simple, we live in a small place...she could reach it pretty much no matter where we put it in the house.

There were never such devoted sisters!

Here's the family on Father's Day (or, the day before Father's Day if we must be specific). As you can see, we had some difficulty getting Jonah and Cate to face forward so, we didn't force the issue...at least Mommy and Daddy know where to look.

The slideshow below makes up for the last series of photos and their lack of smiles.

They now are all able to stand up while leaning on something (like the side of a crib). Also, they like to play "Tug-Tug" with Winston...which usually ends up with the babies chewing on Winston's toy and Winston distressing about not being able to get his toy back.

Sorry that these aren't "Smiley Pictures" of the babies (they were pretty tired). We just wanted to wish you a Happy-Happy Anniversary. Cathy says that Grandad needs to make sure he takes the night off (that means no lawn mowing or fire fighting) and take Gramma Jo out for a nice dinner (Olive Garden, Red Lobster or Wendy's...okay, not Wendy's but. use your imagination).

By the by...in the background of Eve's "Crawling" video, notice Jonah trying to get into the chair.

2008-05-11T18:32:00.000-07:00

This was what pool time looked like from our perspective. It was a lot of fun, very wet and life-threatening for the baby closest to Daddy.

Disclaimer: NO CHILDREN WERE HARMED DURING THE MAKING OF THIS VIDEO. ALL DEATH-DEFYING FEATS WERE PERFORMED BY STUNT-BABIES.

Mother's Day Weekend...in addendum

2008-05-11T18:26:00.002-07:00

The slideshow below showcases Cate in a red dress that was made for her Mommy (Cathy) by Cathy's Mommy (Gramma Jo). We will hopefully soon have picture of Eve in the dress for everyone to see also. Since Cate got a turn with Daddy and the camera, Jonah and Eve lined up as well. There is little significance to Eve's outfit (except that it is cute and she looks very cute in it) but the T-shirt that Jonah is wearing came from his Aunt Whitney (Thanks Aunt Whitney).

And then there was this cool little frog-shaped wading pool that the babies just had to get for Mommy for Mother's Day (I mean, what mother doesn't dream of trying to supervise three infants and a hapless Dad around a verifiable drowning hazzard). A "dream come true" it is! So, Cate, Eve and Jonah each got their first pool experience on Mother's Day 2008, and they seemed to love it.

The NINE-MONTH Check-up

2008-05-01T18:19:00.000-07:00

April 23 came and brought with it Cate, Eve and Jonah's Nine-Month appointment with Dr. White. Simply put, they are all doing very well and growing like they are s'posed to be. So, without further ado, here are the latest stats.

Cate weighs 18lb 4oz and is now 27 3/4 inches
Eve weighs 16lb and 11oz and is now 28 inches
Jonah weighs 19lb and 5oz and is now 28 1/8 inches

So, they're big and getting bigger (as is the recommended course for babies).

More information to come...stats to be updated in late July.

Our Fourth Trip North

2008-05-01T18:01:00.002-07:00

We left on Tuesday, April 15 when I was done with class at UCF and we headed for Ohio once again. We hoped to make it all the way there in one shot, but we chickened out somewhere in I-26 in South Carolina (AKA The State that Never Ends).

So, we arrived in Belpre on Wednesday afternoon and commenced a'vacationin'. We got to spend time with Whitney, Ryan, Hailey, Emma and Bill (the dog) and later we spent some time with Mark, Faith, Conor, Collin and Aidan...not to mention Uncle David, Aunt Leeann and Granmma Jo and Grandad. So many people and so little time.

We got to go to church in Salem and there the babies had a brief chance to see Grammy (Ruth). Sabbath and Sunday nights saw the arrival of Norman and Christina and then Uncle Dale and Aunt Janet respectively.

It was a vacation chock full of people. We enjoyed the time, but were ready to return home...so much so that we actually drove the 15 hours straight home (the babies did really well until we hit Florida and even then did pretty well...I think Cathy and I were crankier than the babies).

That'll probably end Cate, Eve and Jonah's "road tripping" for the first year of their life. July 21 will be here before we know it and then we'll start pounding the asphalt some more.

2008-05-01T17:51:00.001-07:00

We finally made it to the beach...

2008-04-05T18:30:00.000-07:00

We went to Jacksonville on Sabbath afternoon (March 29, 2008) so that we could go to the Jax Zoo on Sunday. So, since we were in Jacksonville on Sabbath Night without much to do, we headed over to Ponte Vedra Beach and went for a little walk. The sand was a bit softer than we first thought and Cathy was so amused by watching me push the stroller over the soft sand the first time that she decided to film me going back over.

But, besides the softness of the sand, the babies had no idea what we were doing or where we actually were, but they humored us. We took some pictures, took some video and picked up some tiny shells to commemorate the event.

Cate has a tendency to hold her breath (or just gasp uncontrollably) when the wind blows in her face...after about ten minutes in the breeze by the ocean, she decided it was okay to breath again. Jonah and Eve just laid back and took it in (like they had much of a choice) and Cathy and I enjoyed the walk on the beach...a bit different than we may have experienced in the past, but there is something amazing about being there when someone (in this case, three someones) gets to experience something brand new. I can't believe that God has blessed us this much.

Puffs for everyone...

2008-04-05T18:18:00.000-07:00

We've had a week of a couple more firsts...minor firsts maybe, but fun ones to watch. Cate, Eve and Jonah all seemed a little hesitant (if not a bit disgusted) with the peach flavored puffs. They each tasted their puff, looked confused and then swallowed. When they tried the second puff, that's when it got a little more interesting. They each made the "I'm gonna hurl" face, moaned briefly and then made it clear that they were done with the puffs for now. We'll try again soon.

Eight Months and Counting

2008-03-22T18:04:00.000-07:00

Well, no one has started crawling yet, but all three of them have proven pretty mobile (Eve being the least mobile of the three). Eve has a tendency to roll from her back to her front and then scream...not build up to a scream, just scream. Both Jonah and Cate go from the middle of the room to being wedged underneath something under which they don't actually fit. But not to be outdone, Eve was the first to sprout teeth. She was followed shortly by Cate. Jonah still sees no point in bearing his teeth yet so he remains strictly gummy.

February 8, 2008 - The Triplets' second trip to Sea World
Another good day at Shamu's Happy Harbor. We saw the Shamu Show, the Blue Horizon Dolphin Show, some seals and sea lions. Eating prunes during the Dolphin Show was an adventure, but we came through with flying colors (mostly a deep purple).

December 20 through January 1...or is that January 14? - Christmas Vacation
For our fourth ridiculous trip with three infants, we set off for Ohio (again) and arrived in Belpre on December 21. So, Cate, Eve and Jonah got to spend their first Christmas and New Years with Grandma and Grandad Rogers. Saturday, January 5th marked the first time one of the babies rolled from back to front. Eve made this amazing move and she hasn't stayed on her back since. Cate followed suit on January 8th, but she is more content to be on her back than Eve. We were supposed to be home on January 1st, but the babies had other plans. Jonah got sick with bronchitis, then Eve got sick with bronchitis, then Eve ended up in the ER and was diagnosed with RSV. The next day, Jonah and Cate received the same diagnosis and we were advised to not travel for at least a week from that point. So, a January 1st return ended up being a January 14th return, but on the upside, we did make it home safe and the babies are fully recovered.

November 15 through November 26, 2007 - Thanksgiving Vacation
For our third ridiculous trip with three infants, we set off for Michigan (again) and arrived in Plymouth three days later. We had a blast with family and the Triplets enjoyed all of the extra attention. They got to spend time with Aunt Faith, Uncle Andrew and Aunt Kristin, Conor, Collin, Aidan and Seamus (the cat). With bellies full of turkey, just prior to our departure, Eve decided to be the first to roll over (from front to back). We didn't have the camera handy so, you'll just have to take our word for it.

November 4, 2007 - The Triplets' first trip to Sea World
Sunday morning, spur of the moment, we decided we would accompany our friends Jon and Kris (and Luke and Kylie) to Sea World. A mad dash in the form of 45 minutes of frantic preparation ensued and out the door we went. Despite the hectic beginning, we had a great day (only Cate and Jonah decided to fuss for 15 minutes each).

September 24 through October 14, 2007 - The Triplets' first Vacation
So, with each child freshly immunized, we all plopped down into our respective seats in the van and headed north. The traveling went really well (except for the last thirty minutes before each stop). Regardless of our destination (Rest Area, Grand-dad and Grandma's House, Aunt Faith's) the locale was greeted with three screaming children. We made it to Belpre, OH on the 25th of September, to Plymouth, MI on the 30th of September and back to Belpre on the 5th of October. It wasn't exactly a whirlwind tour, but it was a full three weeks.

September 15, 2007 - The Triplets' first day at Church
We didn't know what to expect, so we stayed with Grandpa and Grandma Camenga in South Daytona, FL on Friday the 14th of September just to make sure we would make to church on time in the morning. The night was a little rough, but we managed to make it through and we made it to church a little late. The triplets ate as soon as we got there and then were in and out of sleep for the rest of the time. The people at church were ecstatic to see "all the babies" but were quite timid at the same time (that timidity soon wore off). It was a good day, but we didn't make it back to church in Daytona until October 20th.
