To know them is to love them....

The triplets have developed some pretty strong personalities as of late. They have specific tastes in clothes, food, shoes, activities, and even TV. It is interesting to see 3 girls of the same age develop into their own little selves.

Ella dresses with comfort in mind. (truly a girl after my own heart) She likes hoodies, sweats, yoga pants, pj bottoms, slip on shoes, and easy accessories. She adores her American Girl stuff, and is hardly a pioneer when it comes to trying new things. Her ears never have earrings, and she likes to air dry her hair. She tends to keep all of her stuff in containers, and is forever claiming boxes, bags, and tubbies as her own.

Holly likes her clothes to match. (almost to the point of ridiculous) brown shirt, brown jeans, brown shoes, or blue, blue, and blue, ect. She is sporty. She likes athletic wear, tennis shoes, and looks the most like an all american third grader. She reads with a passion, and does not stake too much claim on any stuff. She is blessed with a sense of adenture. She loves to climb trees, try new activities, and foods. She never gives up, and can be very stubborn.

Jilly fancies herself a fashionista. She watches what other kids wear, and tries to be stylish. Her newest thing is boots, all kinds, all colors. She loves a good layered look, beacuse while she likes to look good, she prefers to strip down to a tank the moment the temp is something she can stand. She wants to read above her grade level books, likes only what she likes to eat, and demands that things tend to go her way. She lives life with the most regrets. It is often that she turns down opportunity only to wish she could join in after the fact. It is not rare to find her tivo list has replaced our recordings, and she is quick to quote characters and song lyrics. The world is her oyster.

While I never thought I would be raising 3 kids who were the same, it is only recently that they really have started to resent being grouped. It is only allowed at their pleasure, and ususally for their convenience.
