The truth about Kate, Chase, and Reece

KATEKate loves be held or played with ALL THE TIME (this is very hard to do when you have three babies). She also loves sucking on her binky and cries whenever it falls out of her mouth, which is about every 2 minutes. She looks forward to her baths and just melts when the warm water runs down her big belly. She is a very curious girl with big eyes and loves to watch things in action, so she often sits in her vibrating chair in the kitchen and "helps" mom with the cooking and cleaning.
There are many things that Kate does not like and has rightfully earned the nickname Miss Grouchy Pants. She spends the majority of the day crying with lots of snorting and coughing intermixed among the screams. It is not very attractive. She does not like to sit still and has to be moving at all times. She especially hates bedtime and does not like to let her mommy and daddy go to bed. She also does not like tummy time, unless of course she is having her tummy time while you are holding her on your chest.

CHASEChase loves to be talked to and acts as if he understands what you are saying to him. He often responds with a "Yay!" or an "Ah-goo!" He loves music and dancing with his mama and will stop squawking when the music starts playing. Chase also loves baths and would sit in it all evening if his daddy's arms didn't get so tired from holding him upright while in the bath. Chase is a great eater and will suck down anything you put in his bottle in a matter of minutes. If he was able, he would probably steal his siblings' bottles and drink them too! He has become quite the drooler and gets everything near his face soaking wet, including his clothes.
Chase is a pretty happy baby, but he does not like getting out of the bath and throws a big old fit the minute you take him out of the water. He also hates getting his clothes changed and screams as if he is being skinned alive when you pull his arms through the sleeves of his shirts. We also discovered that he does not like nurses wearing rubber gloves and screams the minute they just touch him - it must bring back bad memories from when he was in the NICU. Chase is a hard worker and is very eager to begin crawling, but during tummy time he gets very frustrated that all of his efforts do not get him anywhere.

REECEReece loves to fool all visitors into thinking that he is the most calm, laid-back baby and loves to save up his fit-throwing until all company has left. He is a charmer and has become very good at interacting with people. He is a daddy's boy and loves to smile and play with his Daddy. He has recently discovered his tongue and loves to stick it out and lick anything and everything. He loves to stretch his arms above his head and does it about 100 times a day, which often interferes with eating time because he knocks his bottle out of his mouth repeatedly.
Reece does not like to get cleaned in any way; he hates baths, getting his boogers picked, his ears cleaned, his neck de-funkdified, and so on. He would prefer to be a stinky, dirty boy. He is definitely a night owl and hates to go to bed at night, in fact he knows when bed time is approaching and starts throwing fits about 1-2 hours before it's time to hit the hay.
