Back together

The Three Amigos reunited yesterday. Its been a long month of sickness and surgery keeping these three apart, and I don't think they could have gone much longer without seeing each other.

Every day, one of the mamas would send out a text letting the other two know requests were being made for some bestie play time.

With the go-ahead from John Oscar's doctor, we didn't waste one minute getting to the playground.

The reunion began instantly. Squeals of delight came from our automobiles as each one of us arrived at the park and the babes recognized where we were.

"I need out. I need out," Lane told me, as his two best friends sat in a car together.

They opted out of lunch and went right to the slides, swings and monkey bars - as if they had never been apart.

"Oh Ju Ju," Andrea said. "Oh Lane," she continued. "Come play," she told both of them.

Who can resist a request of that nature?













And play they did. For most of the afternoon, one was always right behind another. They followed each other around playing copy cat and speaking to each other in only a language they can understand.


Baby Evan joined the group - watching from the side patiently waiting until he's big enough to join in on the shenanigans.

At the rate he's growing, it won't take long until he's tagging along. He might also be as big as Jackie soon.




But back to the besties, smiles adorned their faces most of the day. No matter what they were doing, they were happy.

Shockingly enough, we received very little protests when it came time to head out. I think each one of them was ready for a nap.

The babes said their good-byes. The mamas made plans for next week.

Keep them apart no more.
The band is back together.
